In particular, medical students\u2019 education on food safety is essential for them as future physicians, and university education is the first step in acquiring this knowledge. We performed an online survey with 1277 respondents among medical students to assess knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAPs) related to food safety regarding microbiological contamination. Our findings showed that more than half of the respondents presented a low level of food safety knowledge, with a score between 11\u201360 points, and only 6% managed to score between 81 and 100 points, which was considered a high level of knowledge. On the contrary, we found that most participants had a high level of good practice: 58% scored more than 25 points, 39% had an average level of good practice (scoring between 21 and 25 points), and 3% of respondents had a low level of good practice (scoring below 21 points). We also noticed a statistically significant difference between total scores of preclinical and clinical years of study among medical students (p = 0.005) regarding food safety knowledge. The frequency of cooking was positively correlated with the level of food safety knowledge, but not with food safety practices. Our study shows that better knowledge on food safety is needed among medical students. Improving knowledge and awareness of food safety in relation to microbiological contamination is a good way to protect themselves and to promote the correct food safety knowledge and measures among their patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/foods14091636","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,6]],"date-time":"2025-05-06T09:08:56Z","timestamp":1746522536000},"page":"1636","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Assessment of Food Safety Knowledge and Practices Among Medical Students"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1234-492X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria","family":"Ni\u021bescu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Hygiene and Medical Ecology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, Dr. Leonte Street, 050463 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6873-8333","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mirela Maria","family":"Nedelescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Hygiene and Medical Ecology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, Dr. Leonte Street, 050463 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elena","family":"Moro\u015fan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Clinical Laboratory\u2014Hygiene of Nutrition, Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, Traian Vuia Street, 020956 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9334-0199","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anca Angela","family":"Simionescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Obstetrics and Gynecology Filantropia, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, 011171 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4441-1325","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Florentina Ligia","family":"Furtunescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Public Health and Management, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, 050463 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bianca Eugenia","family":"\u015etef\u0103nescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Life Sciences, University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, 400372 Cluj-Napoca, Romania"},{"name":"Department of Food Science and Technology, University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine, 400372 Cluj-Napoca, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mihail","family":"Tusaliu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"ENT Department, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, 020021 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0083-8992","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eugenia","family":"Panaitescu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Medical Informatics and Biostatistics, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, 050474 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alin-Marian","family":"Stanciu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCaro Davila\u201d, 050474 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-7873-8850","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Irina Mihaela","family":"Stoian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Discipline Hygiene and Medical Ecology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Medicine and Pharmacy \u201cCarol Davila\u201d, Dr. Leonte Street, 050463 Bucharest, Romania"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"World Health Organization (2025, January 14).
