33 million cases of illness in the usa from food borne contaminants Microbial pathogens in food cause an estimated 6.5- 33 million cases of human illness and up to 9,000 deaths in the United States each year. Microbial pathogens in food cause an estimated 6.5- 33 million cases of human illness and up to 9,000 deaths in the United States each year. Over 40 different food borne microbial pathogens, including fungi, viruses, parasites, and bacteria, are believed to cause human illnesses. Over 40 different food borne microbial pathogens, including fungi, viruses, parasites, and bacteria, are believed to cause human illnesses. For six bacterial pathogens, the costs of human illness are estimated to be $9.3-$12.9 billion annually. Of these costs, $2.9-$6.7 billion are attributed to food borne bacteria. For six bacterial pathogens, the costs of human illness are estimated to be $9.3-$12.9 billion annually. Of these costs, $2.9-$6.7 billion are attributed to food borne bacteria. Common food related diseases are Common food related diseases are Listeria, salmonella, E coli Listeria, salmonella, E coli

Aquaculture Freshwater fish farms Freshwater fish farms Tilapia, Catfish, Trout, and others Tilapia, Catfish, Trout, and others Shrimp farms, Mollusks Shrimp farms, Mollusks Using ozone to treat the recirculation water has two primary effects: disease control and adding dissolved oxygen to the water. Using ozone to treat the recirculation water has two primary effects: disease control and adding dissolved oxygen to the water. The results are a 20% to 40% increase in fish yield and healthy, disease-free water The results are a 20% to 40% increase in fish yield and healthy, disease-free water

Food Processing Microbial control of surface disinfection for washing, transporting and cooling of whole fresh fruits and vegetables. Microbial control of surface disinfection for washing, transporting and cooling of whole fresh fruits and vegetables. Leaves no chemical taste or odor Improves product appearance Improves product spoilage Extends shelf life

Agriculture Ozone removes iron, maganese, algae and other pathogens found in source water for well water and treatment tanks. Ozone removes iron, maganese, algae and other pathogens found in source water for well water and treatment tanks. Increases harvest Increases harvest Reduces fertilizer use Reduces fertilizer use Reduces root disease Reduces root disease Fumigates soil Fumigates soil Increases milk production fpr dairy cattle Increases milk production fpr dairy cattle

Avian Influenza Virus Asia has lost some 100 million birds in the first wave of bird flu outbreaks starting from the beginning of this year. The epidemic also caused the deaths of 27 people, 19 in Vietnam and eight in Thailand in the first half of this year.
