Managing biostability and biosafety of water for the food production chain Ghent University
Water is consumed as such or used as ingredient or production aid in the food production chain. Providing safe (drinking) water to the food industry is thus crucial. Invasion of pathogens in drinking water, and cyanotoxin production by blue-green algae in surface waters pose emerging risks to public health and economy. This project aims at ensuring biostable conditions in drinking water to avoid microbial regrowth and presence of cyanotoxins ...
