This Guide was prepared by FAO and WHO in collaboration with a number of international experts in various aspects of risk analysis, as well as the International Life Sciences Institute (ILSI) and the Industry Council for Development (ICD). In particular, FAO and WHO would like to acknowledge the major work undertaken by Edward Groth III and Steve Hathaway to
revise the initial draft following the peer review meeting from 29 to 30 November 2005 at FAO Headquarters in Rome, and produce the two case studies. Isabel Walls is acknowledged for her work on the case study of Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods. P. Michael Bolger is recognized for his review of the case study of methylmercury in fish.
