Organically produced foods: food safety issues : citations January 2000-July 2008.
(Special reference briefs ; NAL SRB. 2008-03)
1. Natural foods--Bibliography. 2. Food contamination--Bibliography.
I. Alternative Farming Systems Information Center (U.S.) II. Title.
aS21.D27S64 no. 2008-03
What is in this bibliography. This bibliography contains 174 citations for articles, conference papers, reports and book chapters published January 2000 through July 2008. Cited resources focus specifically on food safety issues related to organically produced foods. These issues include pesticide and related chemical residues in foods; heavy metal and microbial contamination of foods linked to farming and handling practices; natural toxicants including phytochemicals in foods that may affect food safety; antibiotic residues in animal products and their impact on antibiotic resistance in humans and animals; and fungal and bacterial contamination of organic animal feeds.
Each cited item relates directly to food produced from organic agricultural and/or handling practices. Some coverage is given to impacts of organic fertilizer applications and free range husbandry practices if they appear to apply to certifiable organic farming systems.
All items cited in this bibliography were published in English; however, the literature and research reflect the fact that important work pertaining to food safety of organically/biologically grown crops is being conducted internationally. This bibliography is a companion publication to AFSIC’s Special Reference Briefs on organic foods and nutrient content, Organically Produced Foods: Nutritive Content (216 citations, 1945-2000) http://www.nal.usda.gov/afsic/pubs/srb0003.shtml and Organically Produced Foods: Nutritive Content (283 citations, January 2000-July 2008), http://www.nal.usda.gov/afsic/pubs/srb0803.shtml
The majority of cited articles describe research results. Many (30) are overviews of literature and/or research (see “literature reviews” in the Subject Index to identify all such citations). 131 of the 174 cited articles discuss comparisons of organic foods with non-organic foods at some level. These sources are noted in the citation and the Subject Index with the phrase, “comparative studies.” Most of the studies referenced here document hazards on or in foods – their presence and potential risk. A few focus on human subjects – connecting dietary intake to specific health biomarkers. See “dietary surveys” in the Subject Index to find these.
The Subject Index is accompanied by an Author Index. Numbers listed after names and terms in the indexes refer to citation numbers in the text.
Research on the food safety issues pertinent to organic food varies widely in focus, methodology, results and scientific validity. Although this bibliography, for the most part, is restricted to references from peer-reviewed sources, no attempt has been made by the bibliography author to judge the credibility of cited research. Evaluation in this regard is left to the reader.
What is not in this bibliography. There is a great deal of literature related to other aspects of organically produced foods. Except where they relate to food safety, the following topics are NOT covered in this bibliography:
Nutrients in food including vitamins and minerals (except heavy metals)
Food sensory and cosmetic qualities – how food tastes and looks
Economic and consumer studies
Environmental impacts of food production
Geographic distribution issues, including “local food” topics
Research trends revealed in the literature. Interest in nutritional qualities of organic food has increased dramatically since 2000. It is evidenced in the sheer numbers of publications cited here.
