Pathogen Control

Pathogen control involves techniques and measures to prevent or reduce the presence of harmful microorganisms, like bacteria, viruses, and fungi, that can cause diseases. This can include proper sanitation, sterilization, cooking at appropriate temperatures, and using disinfectants. In food safety, it ensures products are safe to consume, while in healthcare, it prevents the spread of infections. Effective pathogen control is essential for protecting public health and maintaining hygiene standards, ensuring environments and products are free from dangerous microbes that could lead to illness.
