Foodborne diseases caused by bacteria such as Salmonella and Campylobacter are a huge public health problem, both in Australia and globally. Current methods used to investigate foodborne disease may not be sensitive enough to track foodborne outbreaks, and may not even detect them in the first place. We propose using cutting-edge molecular techniques to investigate foodborne outbreaks, and we think that using these methods will enable outbreaks to be interrupted at a much earlier stage.

由沙门氏菌和弯曲杆菌等细菌引起的食源性疾病在澳大利亚和全球都是一个巨大的公共卫生问题。目前用于调查食源性疾病的方法可能不够灵敏，无法追踪食源性疾病的爆发，甚至可能无法首先发现它们。我们建议使用尖端的分子技术来调查食源性疫情，我们认为使用这些方法将使疫情能够在更早的阶段被中断。
