The Persistence of Bacterial Pathogens in Surface Water and Its Impact on Global Food Safety

Water is vital to agriculture. It is essential that the water used for the production of fresh produce commodities be safe. Microbial pathogens are able to survive for extended periods of time in water. It is critical to understand their biology and ecology in this ecosystem in order to develop bett...
