Light-based technologies for the decontamination of powdered infant formula (BABY-SAFE)

Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

Powdered infant formula is the most widespread and established alternative to the breastfeeding of the newborn. Despite preservation steps during production illnesses caused by contaminated formula as a result of Salmonella spp., Cronobacter sakazakii have been reported, which can often lead to brain damage or death in babies and infants. The use of extremely high temperatures during sterilisation ...
