CENTAUR NETWORK Background Supplement 2003 CENTAUR NETWORK The population of the world 1980 2002 2015 4,4 billion around 6,4 billion around 7,1 billion the food deficit will grow in less developed countries application of biotechnology effective control of animal and plant diseases CENTAUR NETWORK Human population is dependent on livestock breeding and livestock products Veterinary services prevention and control of infectious, parasitic and other diseases New biotechnologies diagnostics and vaccines modern epidemiology CENTAUR NETWORK FAO priority programmes early warning management early rapid reaction management enabling research and co-ordination biotechnology application cell culture and DNA technology in 70‘ DNA fragments reverse transcriptase directed mutagenesis synthesis of oligonucleotides protein and DNA sequencing CENTAUR NETWORK Biotechnology application in general DNA fragmentation cell culture and DNA technology reverse transcriptase directed mutagenesis synthesis of oligonucleotides protein and DNA sequencing polymerase chain reaction immunochemistry based on antibodies (conventional and monoclonal) CENTAUR NETWORK Biotechnology in animal health care better diagnosis better and safer vaccines recombinant vaccines deleted TK genes mutants synthetic and DNA vaccines immunostimulation genetic manipulation germ lines of economical important livestock improvement of specific disease resistance CENTAUR NETWORK Modern veterinary epidemiology environmental epidemiology (interactions between populations of host and parasites) application of information technology data acquisition in data-sparse areas holistic approach (socio-economic and environmental background) CENTAUR NETWORK Food safety and consumer protection control of food-borne diseases control of contamination of feeds and foods care for animal welfare from birth to slaughtering control the environmental pollution improvement the technology for production and distribution harmonization of legislation CENTAUR NETWORK FAO networks Emergency prevention system for transboundary animal and plant pests and diseases – livestock component (EMPRES) Regional animal disease surveillance and control network for North Africa, The Middle East and the Arab Peninsula (RADISCON) European commission for the control of foot and mouth disease (EUFMD) CENTAUR NETWORK Joint FAO/IAEA division of nuclear techniques in food and agriculture (Vienna) international assistance on disease surveillance preparation and verification of diagnostic kits based on immunoanalysis and molecular biology training International centre of genetical engineering and biotechnology (ICGEB) (Trieste) CENTAUR NETWORK FAO Food and Nutrition Division sustainable improvements in nutrition awareness of the benefits of combating hunger and reducing malnutrition promotion of food safety prevention of food-borne diseases consumer protection fair practice in food trade CENTAUR NETWORK Codex alimentarius created in 1963 by FAO and WHO to develop food standards guidelines codes of practice protection of health of consumers ensuring the fair trade practice promotion of collaboration CENTAUR NETWORK Other international organizations co-operating with FAO (1) Office international des épizooties OIE, Paris Established in 1924, 162 member countries collection and dissemination of information recommendation of standard methods and biopreparates reference laboratories nomination professional legislation sanitary safety of world trade CENTAUR NETWORK Other international organizations co-operating with FAO (2) World Health Organization, Geneve zoonotic diseases food safety European Commission, Brussels food safety and consumer protection environmental pollution animal welfare Centres of excellence and reference laboratories CENTAUR NETWORK FAO AgroWeb Network partner of the CENTAUR Network CENTAUR NETWORK Risk of transboundary diseases in South, Central and Eastern Europe bluetongue foot and mouth disease rinderpest peste de petite ruminants contagious bovine pleuropneumonia sheep and goat pox (capripox) clasical swine fever African swine fever CENTAUR NETWORK Other ongoing infectious diseases Poultry: Newcastle disease, Gumborro disease, Marek disease Ruminants: Bovine spongiform encephalopathia (BSE), scrapie, bovine tuberculosis, paratuberculosis, enzootic bovine leucosis, Maedi-visna of sheep, caprine arthritis and encephalitis Swine: porcine respiratory and reproductive syndrome (PRRS), Aujeszky disease Fish: infectious pancreatic necrosis, spring viraemia of carp CENTAUR NETWORK Zoonoses and vector-borne diseases rabies tularemia toxoplasmosis influenza leptospirosis borreliosis trichinellosis West Nile fever CENTAUR NETWORK Autoimmune diseases related to food or animals intolerancy to food components lactose casein soya proteins gluten Crohn‘s disease the role of paratuberculosis is highly probable CENTAUR NETWORK Destabilization factors in the region political transition of the former socialistic countries desintegration of some countries establishment of the new countries global risk of terrorism and bioterrorism mass movement and immigration political, economical and organizational inexperience lack of competitiveness in efficient production nature catastrophes (floods, earthquakes) CENTAUR NETWORK Inevitable outcomes professional and responsible activities based on improved knowledge open exchange of opinions and experiences national and international collaboration increasing the productivity temporary decreased requirements management of change remotion of language barriers use of information technologies CENTAUR NETWORK CENTAUR NETWORK CNFI and the CENTAUR network are your tools!
