Research Publications (Food Safety)

This page tracks research articles published in national and international peer-reviewed journals. Recent articles are available ahead of print and searchable by Journal, Article Title, and Category. Research publications are tracked across six categories: Bacterial Pathogens, Chemical Contaminants, Natural Toxins, Parasites, Produce Safety, and Viruses. Articles produced by USDA Grant Funding Agencies (requires login) and FDA Grant Funding Agencies (requires login) are also tracked in Scopus.

  7. A metalloprotease secreted by the Type II Secretion System links Vibrio cholerae with collagen

    • Journal of Bacteriology

    • Vibrio cholerae is autochthonous to various aquatic niches and the etiological agent of the life-threatening diarrheal disease, cholera. The persistence of V. cholerae in natural habitats is a crucial factor in the epidemiology of cholera. In contrast to the well studied V. cholerae-chitin connection, scarce information is available about the factors employed by the bacteria for the interaction with collagens.

  8. aracterization of 27 Mycotoxin Binders and the Relation with in Vitro Zearalenone Adsorption at a Single Concentration

    • Toxins

    • The aim of this study was to characterize 27 feed additives marketed as mycotoxin binders and to screen them for their in vitro zearalenone (ZEN) adsorption. Firstly, 27 mycotoxin binders, commercially available in Belgium and The Netherlands, were selected and characterized.

  10. Effect of Sumac (Rhus coriaria L.) and Barberry (Berberis vulgaris L.) Water Extracts on Microbial Growth and Chemical Changes in Ground Sheep Meat

    • Journal of Food Processing and Preservation

    • The present study investigated the effect of sumacSWE) and barberry water extracts (BWE) on microbial growth and chemical changes in ground sheep meat during refrigerated storage. The meat samples were explored for changes in total viable count (TVC), lactic acid bacteria (LAB), coliforms, yeasts and Listeria monocytogenes populations as well as thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value, metmyoglobin (metMb), pH value and sensory quality.

  12. Covalent Immobilization of Recombinant Organophosphorus Hydrolase on Spores of Bacillus subtilis

    • Journal of Applied Microbiology

    • Aims
      Organophosphorus pesticides are widely used in agriculture. Accordingly decontamination of these pesticides and their residual in environment is an important aim of researchers. One of the best approaches is enzymatic detoxification of these compounds with organophosphorus hydrolase (OPH). The immobilization of OPH on environmentally friendly supports is of great importance for developing stabilized enzymes to degradation of organophosphorus compounds.
