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. The Novel Internalins InlP1 and InlP4 and the Internalin-Like Protein InlP3 Enhance the Pathogenicity of Listeria monocytogenes

    • Frontiers in Microbiology

    • The pathogenicity of the human foodborne pathogen Listeria (L.) monocytogenes relies on virulence factors such as internalins. In 2009/2010 two L. monocytogenes strains were responsible for a serious listeriosis outbreak in Austria, Germany and the Czech Republic.

  8. Antimicrobial Activity and Action Approach of the Olive Oil Polyphenol Extract Against Listeria monocytogenes

    • Frontiers in Microbiology

    • Olive oil polyphenols extract (OOPE) has antimicrobial properties against foodborne pathogens, without much currently researched on the effects against Listeria monocytogenes. The targets of antimicrobial action of OOPE were studied using different physiological indices: minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), intracellular ATP concentration, cell membrane potential, content of bacterial protein and cell morphology. It was found that OOPE had antimicrobial activity against L.

  11. Ambient pH alters protein content of outer membrane vesicles, driving host development in a benefici

    • Journal of Bacteriology

    • Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are continuously produced by Gram-negative bacteria, and are increasingly recognized as ubiquitous mediators of bacterial physiology. In particular, OMVs are powerful effectors in inter-organismal interactions, driven largely by their molecular contents. These impacts have been studied extensively in bacterial pathogenesis, but have not been well documented within the context of mutualism.

    • Journal of Applied Microbiology

    • Abstract

      Aims

      First, two inactivation models were compared for different phenotypic profiles of Escherichia coli O26 using UV‐C light (UV‐C) and thermal treatment (T), by means of Central Composite Rotatable Design of Experiment (CCRD). Second, we aimed to evaluate subsequent survival and persistence of cells in simulated gastric fluid (SGF).
