THE ILSI NORTH AMERICA FOOD MICROBIOLOGY COMMITTEE HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN RESEARCH OF CONTAMINATION OF LOW-MOISTURE FOOD COMMODITIES WITH SALMONELLA, A PRIORITY FOOD SAFETY ISSUE. AS A RESULT OF THE COMMITTEE'S REQUEST FOR RESEARCH PROPOSALS RELATED TO "TECHNOLOGY AND PROCESS TO CONTROL SALMONELLA IN LOW-MOISTURE FOODS," THREE NEW RESEARCH PROJECTS WERE FUNDED IN 2010, WHICH WERE IN ADDITION TO THREE OTHER ONGOING RESEARCH PROJECTS. ADDITIONALLY, THE COMMITTEE HAS PARTNERED WITH THE AMERICAN PEANUT COUNCIL AND OTHERS TO DEVELOP A HARMONIZED FRAMEWORK FOR IDENTIFYING AND QUANTIFYING SALMONELLA IN RAW PEANUTS, ESTIMATING POPULATION EXPOSURE RISK, AND DETERMINING MEANS OF CONTROL. THE RESULTS OF THIS EFFORT ARE THE FOCUS OF A WORKSHOP PLANNED FOR SPRING 2011. ISOLATES FROM THE ILSI NORTH AMERICA L. MONOCYTOGENES, E. SAKAZAKII, AND SALMONELLA REFERENCE STRAIN COLLECTION, HOUSED AT CORNELL UNIVERSITY, ARE DISTRIBUTED FOR A MINIMAL CHARGE TO RESEARCHERS AROUND THE WORLD. THE COMMITTEE HELD ITS ANNUAL SYMPOSIUM SERIES AT THE 2010 MEETING OF INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR FOOD PROTECTION IN ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA. FEATURED SPEAKERS REPORTED ON "MICROBIOLOGICAL ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING AND VALIDATION: LEADING EDGE ISSUES FOR LOW MOISTURE FOODS" AND "SURVEILLANCE FOR FOODBORNE DISEASE: CHALLENGING PHASES."
