Product Description
Product Description
Over the past few years, traceability systems used to identify animals, monitor their movements and trace animal products have evolved considerably. It has become crucial to harmonise approved systems that may serve to enhance coherence between trading partners, so as to provide better guarantees and to facilitate international trade in animals and animal products. In Europe, bovine spongiform encephalopathy & foot and mouth disease crises have caused major disruptions to trade and emphasised the need to improve traceability techniques for live animals and animal products, especially in the framework of international trade. Within the European Union, such improvements have become legal requirements.
This manual contributes to the development of harmonised procedures for the traceability of animals and animal products & requirements for animal health, public health, international trade and certification. There is historical background and description of methodologies and new technologies to facilitate traceability plus recent progress in electronics, biology and genetics. Traceability systems currently in use for each of the principal domestic animal species are described in detail, as are monitoring and tracing techniques for animal products. Finally, this issue contains several case studies and provides a description of an advanced computerised tracing and traceability system for the cattle industry.
This is a reference book for all those responsible for identification and traceability and gives assistance in the task of providing greater safety for both animal and public health. Contents list at www.pighealth.com/offers/food.htm
