실시간 공중보건 감시와 식품매개질환 집단발생 대처를 위한 국가 전염병 조기경보 시스템 구축 - PulseNet Korea = National Early Warning System Construction for Timely Surveillance of Foodborne Disease Outbreaks-PulseNet Korea

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Foodborne illnesses and big outbreaks have been increased because of the widespread of lunch distribution at school, mass production of food products, and international food trades. It is important to find the origin of contamination by various pathogens in an early stage of the outbreaks for the disease control and prevention. For the purpose of construction of the early warning system, Korea National Institute of Health (KNIH) inaugurated PulseNet Korea in 2005. The organization of PulseNet Korea consists of KNIH as a center and the participating laboratories including Korea Food & Drug Administration (KFDA), National Veterinary Research & Quarantine Station (NVRQS), and regional Institutes of Health & Environment. PulseNet Korea has focused on training researchers from participating laboratories as well as playing an important role in PulseNet International. In this review, PulseNet Korea construction is introduced as a national early warning system for timely surveillance of foodborne diseases.
