Resumo
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the availability of a draft guidance entitled "Guidance for Industry: Guide to Minimize Microbial Food Safety Hazards of Tomatoes." This guidance is intended to cover the entire tomato supply chain, both domestic firms and foreign firms exporting tomatoes into the United States, to enhance the safety of tomatoes by recommending practices to minimize microbial food safety hazards and to prevent microbial contamination. This draft guidance, when finalized, will supplement existing FDA guidances, including the 1998 "Guidance for Industry: Guide to Minimize Microbial Food Safety Hazards for Fresh Fruits and Vegetables," which applies to fresh produce commodities, and the 2008 "Guidance for Industry: Guide to Minimize Microbial Food Safety Hazards of Fresh-cut Fruits and Vegetables," which applies to fresh- cut produce.
