Abstract

Proizvodnja mesa i mesnih proizvoda bitna je industrijska grana. Kao i svaka druga grana
industrije, proizvodnja mesa povlači za sobom određene rizike koji se mogu odraziti na ljudsko
zdravlje. Uglavnom su to različiti mikroorganizmi koji uzrokuju široki niz bolesti u ljudi. Neke od
tih bolesti imaju lakše, a neke teže posljedice na javno zdravstvo. Uporabom određenih
inspekcijskih metoda te pravilnim kontrolama i pregledom mesa reducira se rizik od tih bolesti.
Međutim, inspekcija nije uvijek dovoljna mjera zaštite odnosno mjera kojom se rizik smanjuje pa
je stoga potrebno uvesti dodatne mjere opreza. Zato Europska agencija za sigurnost hrane predlaže
uvođenje usklađenih epidemioloških indikatora kojima bi se rizik od pojedinih bolesti sveo na
minimum. Obzirom da je očuvanje zdravlja ljudi, tj. javnog zdravlja, primarni zadatak i razlog
uvođenja ovih indikatora, cilj ovog diplomskog rada bio je prikazati najvažnije opasnosti, trenutne
prednosti i nedostatke inspekcije te epidemiološke indikatore koji se uvode kako bi dodatno
osigurali zdravlje potrošača, odnosno ljudi.

Abstract (english)

Meat and meat product production is an important part of industry. Like any other industrial
sector, meat production also carries certain risks that may have an influence on public health.
Usually these risks are numerous microorganisms that cause a number of diseases in humans.
Some of these diseases have smaller and some larger consequences on public health. To reduce
this risk, certain inspection methods and official controls are used. Considering that meat
inspection is not always enough to reduce the risk, it is necessary to introduce additional measures.
For this exact reason, The European Food Safety Authority recommends introduction of
harmonised epidemiological indicators which would further reduce the risk to minimum. Since the
primary goal is to maintain the public health, the purpose of this thesis defense is to present the
most dangerous biological hazards, current meat inspection advantages and flaws and
epidemiological indicators that are being introduced with intention of further protection of public
health.
