A Review of the First International Conference on Molluscan Shellfish Safety

Summary

The First International Conference on Shellfish Safety was held in New South Wales, Australia on 13-17 November 1994. It followed two successful conferences on Shellfish Depuration in 1988 and 1992 in the USA and France. This report contains the abstracts of the papers, a brief summary of the presentations, the conference recommendations and some interpretation of these with regard to the UK industry. An appendix outlining some of the illness associated organisms detailed in the papers is included. This report has been produced from a scanned original and may therefore contain some formatting and other inaccuracies. In cases where this affects the technical content, a paper copy of the original report can still be obtained from Seafish.
