DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 2020, the 43rd Session of the Codex Alimentarius Commission approved the “Development of Guidelines for the Safe Use and Reuse of Water in Food Production” proposed at the 51st Session of the Codex Committee on Food Hygiene. To support this work, JEMRA was asked to provide scientific advice on sector-specific applications and case studies for determining appropriate and fit-for-purpose microbiological criteria for water sourcing, use and reuse in fish and fishery products from primary production to retail. This report presented the outcome from the JEMRA meeting, which includes the: situation analysis concerning water use and reuse in the production and processing of fish and fishery products, analysis of case studies for different risk-based water use and reuse processing scenarios and species, water quality monitoring and the use of non-culture based microbiological methods, recommendations concerning the safety and quality of water used in fish production and processing, and critical research gaps and policy developments.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKUse of coastal, estuarine and freshwater recreational environments has significant benefits for health and well-being, including rest, relaxation, exercise, cultural and religious practices, and aesthetic pleasure, while also providing substantial local, regional and national economic benefits. These guidelines focus on water quality management for coastal and freshwater environments to protect public health. The guidelines: 1. describe the current state of knowledge about the possible adverse health impacts of various forms of water pollution; and2. set out recommendations for setting national health-based targets, conducting surveillance and risk assessments, putting in place systems to monitor and control risks, and providing timely advice to users on water safety.These guidelines are aimed at national and local authorities, and other entities with an obligation to exercise due diligence relating to the safety of recreational water sites. They may be implemented in conjunction with other measures for water safety (such as drowning prevention and sun exposure) and measures for environmental protection of recreational water use sites.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMarine Bivalve Molluscs is a comprehensive and thoroughlyupdated second edition of Bivalve Molluscs, covering allmajor aspects of this important class of invertebrates. As well asbeing an important class biologically and ecologically, many of thebivalves are fished and cultured commercially (e.g. mussels,oysters, scallops and clams) in a multi-billion dollar worldwideindustry. Elizabeth Gosling has written a landmark book that will stand formany years as the standard work on the subject. Chapters inMarine Bivalve Molluscs cover morphology, ecology, feeding,reproduction, settlement and recruitment, growth, physiology,fisheries, aquaculture, genetics, diseases and parasites, andpublic health issues. A full understanding of many of these aspectsis vital for all those working in bivalve fisheries andculture. An essential purchase for anyone concerned with this importantclass of animals, copies of Marine Bivalve Molluscs shouldbe on the shelves of biologists, ecologists, environmentalscientists, fisheries scientists and personnel within theaquaculture industry. Copies of the book should be available in alllibraries and research establishments where these subjects arestudied or taught. Reviews of the First Edition • An admirable achievement... a valuable addition to marinesciences libraries everywhere. The back cover of this book saysthat it is a landmark text that will stand for many years as thestandard work on this subject. I can only agree with thissentiment. Aquaculture • A welcome addition to the literature and provides thereader with a comprehensive overview of biological andenvironmental factors that affect and control both naturalpopulations of marine bivalves and culture operations.Aquaculture International • The author has done an admirable job in compiling a wealthof information into a readable text. Transactions of theAmerican Fisheries Society • Will serve well as a description of much of both theexperimental biology and the aquaculture of bivalves. Journal ofExperimental Marine Biology and Ecology • Provides excellent reviews of all major aspects…anextremely important reference for anyone engaged in bivalveresearch, fisheries management, and aquaculture. QuarterlyReview of Biology • The book is very readable, in an easy style. It is wellillustrated and there is a wealth of data and statistics presented.Bulletin of The Malacological Society of London

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEnteric pathogenic viruses are a major challenge in public health, as they represent a major concern with a severe global impact to the economy, commerce, and health systems. Consequently, their active monitoring can allow preventive surveillance and the discovery of new viruses, exemplifying an important epidemiological and health control tool. In an unprecedented way, this book addresses the general characteristics of enteric viruses and their environmental transmission, with a particular emphasis on their structures, stability, routes of transmission and the use of bioindicators for epidemiological monitoring and control. In addition, this book will also address the recent developments for viral concentration and detection in environmental and food samples and the challenges for the control of environmental and food viruses to reduce microbiological risk for final consumers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA comprehensive volume providing broad and detailed coverage of marine mussels Marine Mussels: Ecology, Physiology, Genetics and Culture provides readers with in-depth, fully up-to-date information on all major aspects of marine mussels. Written by an internationally renowned expert in the field, this authoritative volume addresses morphology, ecology, feeding, phylogeny and evolution, reproduction and larval development, settlement and recruitment, genetics, disease, management of culture systems and more. The book encompasses many different species of marine mussels: genus Mytilus, other important commercial marine genera such as Perna, Aulacomya and Choromytilus, and non-commercial genera including Modiolus, Geukensia, Brachidontes and hydrothermal vent Bathymodiolus. Comprising twelve extensively cross-referenced chapters, the book discusses a diversity of integrated topics that range from fundamental physiology of marine mussels to new techniques being applied in their biology and ecology. Author Elizabeth Gosling reviews contemporary developments and issues in the field such as the use of DNA genetic markers in detecting and diagnosing different strains of pathogenic bacteria, the use of mussels as monitors of marine contaminants, sophisticated modelling techniques that simulate disease and forecast outbreaks, and the impacts of global warming, ocean acidification and hypoxia on marine mussels. Presenting an inclusive, highly detailed treatment of mussel biology, physiology, genetics, and culture, this invaluable resource: Contains thorough descriptions of external and internal anatomy, global and local distribution patterns, the impacts of mussels on marine ecosystems, and the processes of circulation, respiration, excretion and osmoregulation Reflects significant advances in mussel science and new areas of research in marine mussels Describes the fundamentals of mussel aquaculture, the types and levels of contaminants in the marine environment and new approaches for sustainable aquaculture development Discusses the application of genetic methods, population genetics, global breeding programmes and the emerging area of bivalve genomics Addresses the role of mussels in disease transmission to humans, including production and processing controls, regulation of monitoring and quality control Marine Mussels: Ecology, Physiology, Genetics and Culture is essential reading for biological scientists, researchers, instructors and advanced students in the fields of biology, ecology, aquaculture, environmental science, toxicology, genetics, pathology, taxonomy and public health.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is based on the concept that optimization, as the core engineering practice, is a bridge to relate the given problem constraints to an acceptable level of uncertainties for the corresponding solution. Over two sections, this book addresses optimization techniques and parameters for engineering problems, corresponding uncertainties in engineering optimization solutions and methods to manage them, and managing uncertainties to support environmental pollution prevention and control.
