Zoonoses, which are infectious diseases that are transmissible between animals and humans, have become more important throughout the world in recent years. According to the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR), major reasons for this are population growth, increasing mobility and changes in animal breeding and husbandry. The research project 'Zoonoses and food safety along global supply chains (ZooGloW)', which is coordinated by BfR, deals with the potential hazards and safety aspects of zoonoses in the food supply chains for pork and poultry.
