What is a Microbiological risk assessment?
Microbiological risk assessment (MRA) is a structured process for determining the public health risk associated with biological hazards in a food. It includes hazard identification, exposure assessment, hazard characterization, and risk characterization. Based upon MRA, food safety management is shifting from hazard-based to risk-based management. From a MRA one can determine which risks are needed to control. An outcome of an MRA, for example, could be a challengetest or an heat deactivation study to verify the risk analysis. We work according to the MRA standards of the World Health Organization. We can service you with an complete MRA or just a part of a MRA. Either way, together we can make your product safe(r).
