Reducing the risk of salmonella spread and practical control measures in dairy herds

Abstract

With increased importance placed on the quality and safety of dairy products, a greater emphasis will be directed to control infectious organisms such as Salmonella all along the food processing chain. Therefore, a better understanding of measures that reduce and control the spread of Salmonella will be important in the future. The above outline will by no means eradicate Salmonella from all farms, but hopefully provides insight in how to manage an outbreak and limit the continued spread of the infection to other producers.
