Background

Seafood safety is a priority for all stakeholders associated with supply and consumption. Outbreaks and recalls caused by microbial pathogens, toxins from harmful algal blooms and xenobiotics are attributed to contaminated seafood, leading to considerable public health and economic burdens. Yet, the complexity of seafood safety management systems in a dynamic global market affected by climate change and driven by market demands, urges the implementation of innovative research and infrastructures to ensure the safety of seafood products.

Scope and approach

This review presents the major needs in seafood safety research and infrastructures, as far as chemical hazards are concerned.

Key findings and conclusions

Faster exchange of information and establishment of synergies across countries and continents, simplified and efficient food safety policies for stakeholders, innovative and applied research that is useful for stakeholders, and maximizing the use of updated infrastructures, are some of the needs to meet seafood safety challenges in the Ocean of Tomorrow.

海鲜化学危害的未来挑战：研究和基础设施需求

背景

海鲜安全是所有与供应和消费有关的利益相关者的优先事项。由微生物病原体，有害藻华产生的毒素和异源生物引起的暴发和召回归因于受污染的海产品，从而给公众健康和经济负担造成了沉重负担。然而，在受气候变化影响和市场需求驱动的动态全球市场中，海鲜安全管理体系的复杂性促使我们必须实施创新的研究和基础设施，以确保海鲜产品的安全。

范围和方法

此次审查提出了就化学危害而言海产品安全研究和基础设施的主要需求。

主要发现和结论

应对海产品安全挑战的一些需求是，在各国和各大洲之间更快地交换信息和建立协同增效，为利益相关者简化和有效的食品安全政策，对利益相关者有用的创新和应用研究以及最大程度地利用更新的基础设施在明天的海洋中。
