Deadly Cantaloupe Outbreak Probed by U.S. Prosecutors (
http://dmmsclick.wiley.com/click.asp?p=6609938&m=61808&u=1634152
)

Proving Jensen Farms knowingly released contaminated
product will be a challenge for prosecutors

Rumors continue to swirl around an alleged federal
criminal probe being conducted by U.S. prosecutors into the
deadly 2011 Listeria outbreak traced to cantaloupes sold by
Colorado-based Jensen Farms, which the CDC reports killed at
least 33 people and sickened nearly 150 more.

On August 13, food safety attorney Bill Marler told Bloomberg
News that he had turned all his files connected with the case
over to federal investigators three weeks earlier. Two days
later, the nonprofit I-News Network, based in Denver, Colo.,
reported that it had multiple independent sources confirming a
current, active criminal probe into Jensen Farms.

Simple and Affordable Contact Surface Allergen
Prevention Test ( http://dmmsclick.wiley.com/click.asp?p=6609938&m=61808&u=1634153
)

A surface protein residue test from Hygiena is making
allergen prevention testing easier and more affordable. Users
quickly detect down to 1-4 ppm of protein residue using the
simple colorimetric test. AllerSnap screens for proteins left on
surfaces allowing the user to cover a broad range of allergens
before or after production. By screening for proteins on
surfaces, multiple allergens can be detected with one test,
eliminating the extra cost of specific allergen tests, matrix
issues, and complicated procedures. AllerSnap is easy to use,
speeds up time between product changeovers, and ideal with HACCP
programs to show proper cleaning and compliance. Learn more.

Consumer Reports Receives $2 Million Grant for Food
Safety Study ( http://dmmsclick.wiley.com/click.asp?p=6609938&m=61808&u=1634154
)

Publication vows to focus on pathogens, carcinogens, and
heavy metals in food

Consumer Reports, the arbiter of safety and quality in
consumer products ranging from cars to washing machines to baby
cribs, will take a more prominent role in assessing food safety,
using a new $2 million grant from the Pew Charitable Trusts.

Announced on August 12, the grant will allow the magazine to
invest much more in food safety testing. Consumer Reports has
conducted previous investigations on BPA, pesticide contamination
in vegetables, and arsenic in juices, but Pew's support allows
the publication to be much more ambitious. "We'll be focusing
mostly on pathogens, heavy metals, and carcinogens in food,"
Jennifer Shecter, a senior policy analyst at the magazine, told
the New York Times.
