The threat of the transboundary diseases, disrupting food supplies, posing serious human and animal health is looming large in the increasingly globalized world. Sanitary and phytosanitary compliance under WTO/GATT regime is another dimension for agriculture and animal related international trade. The book provides updated information on new trends in transboundary zoonotic diseases, foodborne infections, molecular epidemiology and diagnostics for detection of pathogens and residue analysis of food and feeds. The authors have addressed various aspects related to transboundary diseases, bacterial, viral and parasitic zoonoses, foodborne infections and environmental pollutants.
As the book contains valuable relevant information on different aspects of veterinary public health, emerging and re-emerging zoonotic diseases, residue analysis, food hygiene, it would be of great use to diverse group of people including veterinary professions, teachers, students, livestock and poultry farmers, policy makers, people dealing with animal and animal products related trade and common people interested in learning about public health in general.
