Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Recently the traditional salted foods were drastically changed. The risk of food poisoning in the salted foods is increasing because salt concentration of the salted foods became lower. In this study, I investigated the risk of this kind of salted foods. The bacterial contamination in the salted foods (foods in high salt and low salt) is not so high. There is no contamination with the food-borne pathogens in these foods. The prevalence of artificially added food-borne pathogen, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, into these foods was drastically decreased. These results indicated that the marketed salted foods with low salt concentration are safety food bacteriologically.
