| Summary |
"Microbiology of Fruits and Vegetables concerns itself with the extensive research that has been conducted on microbiological problems relating to the safety and spoilage of fruits and vegetables in recent years. It considers incidences of human pathogen contamination, sources of microbial contamination, microbial attachment to produce surfaces, intractable spoilage problems, efficacy of sanitizing treatments for fresh produce, novel interventions for produce disinfection, and methodology for the microbiological evaluation of fruits and vegetables."--BOOK JACKET |
