Food Protection Trends to Debut in January

Des Moines, Iowa (October 4, 2002) Beginning January 1, 2003, Dairy, Food and Environmental Sanitation will change its name to Food Protection Trends. The journal also incorporates the byline “Science and News from the International Association for Food Protection.”

Food Protection Trends is the primary vehicle for communication to Association members. The journal introduces a new look although the content remains the same. Each issue contains refereed articles on applied research, applications of current technology and general interest subjects for food safety professionals. Regular features include industry and association news, an industry-related products section and a calendar of meetings, seminars and workshops. Updates of government regulations and sanitary design are also featured.

All IAFP Members receive Food Protection Trends, which is read by over 9,000 individuals around the world.
