Author(s): Kriti Thakur, Dipali Singh and Shilpa Kaushal

Abstract: Food borne pathogens acts a main risk factor in terms of public health in the developed and developing countries caused by their adequateness all around the world. The most important foodborne pathogens are Escherichia coli and other coliform bacteria.

A common approach by all the countries and other international organizations is a precondition for identifying and controlling foodborne problems that cause a threat to human health and international market. By observing their problematic biology, epidemiology and analyses it is observed that most of the foodborne diseases are curable. It is important for public health that purchasers and food producers should act in accordance with the concept of internationally accepted safety methods.
