USDA, ARS, WRRC, Foodborne Toxin Detection & Prev.
800 BUCHANAN STREET
Albany, CA 94710

Mission:
The Foodborne Toxin Detection and Prevention Research Unit conducts research to develop methods to (1) detect toxins (i.e. botulinum neurotoxins, Shiga toxins, and Staphylococcal enterotoxins) in food and environmental samples and (2) to reduce or eliminate toxigenic and pathogenic microorganisms (i.e. mycotoxigenic fungi, Salmonella, and E. coli) in agricultural commodities such as tree nuts and fresh ready to eat produce. We develop, validate and transfer novel technologies and knowledge to the scientific community, the food industry, and governmental regulatory agencies responsible for the safety of the U.S. and the international food supply.
