The use of aquaculture is increasing to meet the growing global demand for seafood. However, the use of aquaculture for seafood production incurs potential human health risks, especially from enteric bacteria such as Salmonella spp. Salmonella spp. was the most frequently reported cause of outbreaks associated with crustaceans from 1998 to 2004. Among crustacean species, shrimp are the most economically important, internationally traded seafood commodity, and the most commonly aquaculture-raised seafood imported to the United States. To inform safe aquaculture practices, a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) was performed for wastewater-fed aquaculture, incorporating stochastic variability in shrimp growth, processing, and consumer preparation. Several scenarios including gamma irradiation, proper cooking, and improper cooking were considered in order to examine the relative importance of these practices in terms of their impact on risk. Median annual infection risks for all scenarios considered were below 10−4, however 95th percentile risks were above 10−4 annual probability of infection and 10−6 DALY per person per year for scenarios with improper cooking and lack of gamma irradiation. The greatest difference between microbiological risks for the scenarios tested was observed when comparing proper vs. improper cooking (5 to 6 orders of magnitude) and gamma irradiation (4 to 5 orders of magnitude) compared to (up to less than 1 order of magnitude) for peeling and deveining vs. peeling only. The findings from this research suggest that restriction of Salmonella spp. to low levels (median 5 to 30 per L aquaculture pond water) may be necessary for scenarios in which proper downstream food handling and processing cannot be guaranteed.
