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.

  6. Zearalenone Biodegradation by the Combination of Probiotics with Cell-Free Extracts of Aspergillus oryzae and Its Mycotoxin-Alleviating Effect on Pig Production Performance

    • Toxins

    • In order to remove zearalenone (ZEA) detriment—Bacillus subtilis, Candida utilis, and cell-free extracts from Aspergillus oryzae were used to degrade ZEA in this study. The orthogonal experiment in vitro showed that the ZEA degradation rate was 92.27% (p < 0.05) under the conditions that Candida utilis, Bacillus subtilis SP1, and Bacillus subtilis SP2 were mixed together at 0.5%, 1.0%, and 1.0%.

  12. A Preliminary Survey of Cultured Fusaria from Symptomatic Legume Grains in North-Eastern Poland

    • Toxins

    • Legumes are amongst the most promising crops to satisfy the increasing demand for protein-rich food and feed. Today, however, their cultivation in Europe is low, while European agriculture faces a deficit of protein-rich feed, of which the largest part is met by imported soybean. It has been suggested that some legumes can at least partially substitute for soybean in different types of feed.

  17. Impact of various postharvest wash water conditions on the performance of peracetic acid against Escherichia coli O157:H7 over time

    • Food Control

    • Author(s): Tiah Ghostlaw, Maria G. Corradini, Wes Autio, Amanda J. Kinchla Abstract The Produce Safety Rule, part of the Food Safety Modernization Act, mandates zero detectable generic Escherichia coli for certain agriculture wash water applications: hand-washing, food-contact surface washing, or any water which directly contacts produce, including ice. This requirement emphasizes the need to assess and propose mitigation strategies to control E.
