| description | Over the past decade there has been a growing recognition of the involvement of the home in several public health and hygiene issues. Perhaps the best understood of these issues is the role of the home in the transmission and acquisition of foodborne disease. The incidence of foodborne disease is increasing globally.

Some of the most compelling evidence has come from the international data on Salmonella species and Campylobacter species infections. |
