of the Food safety Observatory of UAB, is an associate professor in the Departament
de Ciència animal i dels aliments at UAB. He coordinates a research group,
specialized in development of rapid methods for foodborne disease prevention.
From 1996, he works on techniques based on impedance, immunology (ELISA and
ELFA), ATP analysis, microscopy (light and fluorescence microscopy, and image
analysis) and molecular biology (real-time PCR). At present, there are ten
scientists on his research group, who have published almost 100 papers, 60 of
which are research papers, and book chapters. From 2000, they are in charge of the
scientific coordination of the website www.consumaseguridad.com.
Ms. Montse Vila Brugalla (mvila.brugalla@gmail.com) works at the
Barcelona Public Health Agency.
She was the head, for twelve years, of the Quality control Department of
Central de Cocinados CATAR, SA, an industry that manufactures pasteurized
ready-to-eat meals. She
received her B.S. degree in Veterinary Science from UAB. Her interest in thermobacteriology and the
way of establishing food shelf-life leads her to the knowledge of microbial
growth and inactivation models, and predictive microbiology. In 2002, she
defends her research work entitled “Study on the application of Gompertz
equation and Baranyi model for establishment of pasteurized sauce shelf-life”,
in the Food nutrition, technology and hygiene postgraduate programme. Since
then, she attends courses and conferences related to that subject, where she
focuses on the practical application.
Dr.
Mª Isabel Pividori Gurgo (isabel.pividori@uab.cat) is an associate professor in the Departament de
Química at UAB, and has large experience in design of DNA electrochemical
biosensors, which was the topic of her Ph.D. studies, the first ones on that
field in
