Food Safety Alert: Detection of Salmonella in Frozen Shrimp
On October 15, 2025, a significant food safety incident was reported involving the detection of Salmonella bacterial strains in frozen shrimp products. This alert was issued through the Rapid Alert System for Food and Feed portal (RASFF), highlighting a serious concern regarding bio-contaminants in food items.
The affected product is identified as frozen shrimp, specifically the variety known as gamberone monocero scottate congelate iqf, which originates from India. Salmonella is a harmful bacterium that can cause severe gastrointestinal illness in humans, leading to symptoms such as diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. The presence of this pathogen in food products poses a significant risk to public health, especially when consumed undercooked or raw.
Consumers are advised to exercise caution and avoid purchasing or consuming the implicated frozen shrimp. It is crucial to ensure that all seafood is cooked thoroughly to eliminate any potential pathogens. Additionally, proper food handling and hygiene practices should be followed to minimize the risk of foodborne illnesses.
Authorities are currently investigating the source of contamination and taking necessary actions to prevent further distribution of the affected products. It is essential for food safety agencies and the food industry to remain vigilant in monitoring and controlling bio-contaminants to protect public health.
