Quantitative microbiological risk assessment

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2001
The production of safe food is being increasingly based on the use of risk analysis, and this process is now in use to establish national and international food safety objectives. It is also being used more frequently to guarantee that safety objectives are met and that such guarantees are achieved in a cost-effective manner.

Quantitative risk assessment

1998
Treated briefly in this chapter are the methods that allow quantification of the probability of a particular type of accident occurring. It is not enough simply to identify all possible types of accidents, their causes and their evolution sequences. Neither is it sufficient to be able to predict the effects of an accident, assuming a specific group of ...

Quantitative Risk Assessment

2011
Quantitative risk assessments cannot eliminate risk, nor can they resolve trade-offs. They can, however, guide principled risk management and reduction - if the quality of assessment is high and decision makers understand how to use it. This book builds a unifying scientific framework for discussing and evaluating the quality of risk assessments and ...

Quantitative Terrorism Risk Assessment

The Journal of Risk Finance, 2002
Traditionally, terrorism risk has been priced based exclusively on the relationship between supply and demand in the insurance market, with no basis in actuarial principles. This article discusses how the tragic events of September 11, 2001, have irrevocably changed the market for terrorism insurance, since terrorism has become a U.S. catastrophe risk.

Qualitative and quantitative risk assessment

Food Control, 1999
Abstract Risk assessment and HACCP are related, but fundamentally different processes. Four major elements of risk assessment are commonly described (hazard identification; exposure assessment; dose-response assessment or hazard characterization; and risk characterization).

Quantitative risk assessment: Qualms and questions

Teratogenesis, Carcinogenesis, and Mutagenesis, 1988
AbstractWithin the past ten years, quantitative risk assessment has come to play a central role in the federal regulation of carcinogens. Federal agencies use quantitative risk both to set priorities and to establish exposure levels. The use of quantitative risk assessment is mandated by Executive Orders requiring performance of cost‐benefit analysis ...
