Animal products have a very high nutritional value among food components. Bacillus cereus is a common foodborne pathogen in animal foods. This paper reviewed the recent studies on the progress of modeling of Bacillus cereus and its application on the risk assessment. The latest studies about growth models and inactivation models established in foods such as meat, milk and dairy products, eggs and egg products are summarized. Moreover, the interface models and risk modeling application under dynamic environment are also reviewed. As a conclusion, some prospects of Bacillus cereus modeling are analyzed, which might be referred for further studies.
