Safety Assessment of Foods Derived from Genetically Modified Microorganisms
Microbial Ecology in Health & Disease, 2001 Microorganisms have a long history of use in food production, e.g. in the production of sausages, cheeses, etc. Roughly one quarter of all food products rely on microbiological processes, and the safe use of microorganisms for food production is essential.
