Abstract
|
|
|
|
Frequent large outbreaks of food poisoning or foodborne diseases are emerging problems in Korea. As for individual cases, most of food poisoning or foodborne diseases are difficult to diagnose based solely on clinical features. On the other hand, in case of large outbreaks, clinical features such as the incubation period, presence or degree of fever and the severity of upper gastrointestinal tract symptoms could be useful for the differential diagnosis. In this review, we suggest key clinical characteristics and standard laboratory diagnostic methods of epidemiologically important food poisoning or foodborne diseases.
