Prof. Dr. John Holah is an applied microbiologist focused on the prevention of microbial, chemical, and foreign body contamination of food during manufacture and retail distribution. He is currently Technical Director of Holchem Laboratories (UK), a major supplier of cleaning chemicals, disinfectants and hygiene services. He is a Visiting Professor in Food Safety at Cardiff Metropolitan University and was previously Head of Food Hygiene at Campden BRI. He has been a member of the EHEDG (the European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group) since 1989 and has also chaired ISO Working Groups producing standards on hygienic design and lubricants and chaired the GFSI Working Group on the hygienic design of food facilities and equipment. He is a co-editor in the other two Elseveir books. He has published and presented hundreds of scientific papers, technical articles and presentations in food safety and hygienic design. Prof. Dr. h.c. H.L.M. (Huub) Lelieveld is the Founder and President of the Global Harmonization Initiative and Fellow of the International Academy of Food Science and Technology. He is an editor or co-editor of numerous books, including several on hygiene and food safety management, novel food processing technologies, and harmonization of food safety regulations. He produced chapters for many books and encyclopedia, hundreds of scientific articles and articles for magazines, and presented hundreds of papers, globally. He has been awarded doctor honoris causa at the National University of Food Technologies in Kiev, Ukraine and is a leading expert in food safety. Dr. Domagoj Gabrić is a food scientist and managing director/owner of “FoodSciTech” Consultancy based in the Netherlands. Dr. Gabrić was born in Zagreb (1981). He finished his MSc in food engineering at University of Zagreb, Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology in year 2006. He did PhD dissertation in food science and technology within EU-FP6 European Project and defended it also at University of Zagreb, Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology in year 2011. After PhD defense he works at National College of Veterinary Medicine, Food Science and Engineering (ONIRIS), Nantes, France as a postdoc. His collaboration with “IXL Netherlands BV” resulted in excellent results applicable in mild processing technology and as novel cooking technology. His expertise is in hygiene and sanitation, biotechnologies. He’s authored book chapters, and published papers in peer-reviewed journals and in proceedings. He is a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry, Global Harmonization Initiative and Croatian Food Technologists Biotechnologists and Nutritionists Society.
