  15. Design Elements of Listeria Environmental Monitoring Programs in Food Processing Facilities: A Scoping Review of Research and Guidance Materials

    • Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety

    • Occurrence of Listeria monocytogenes (Lm), the causative agent of listeriosis, in food processing facilities presents considerable challenges to food producers and food safety authorities. Design of an effective, risk‐based environmental monitoring (EM) program is essential for finding and eliminating Lm from the processing environment to prevent product contamination.

  16. Autophage as a control measure for Salmonella in laying hens

    • Poultry Science

    • AbstractNotwithstanding the National Salmonella Control Programs, the latest data published by the European Food Safety Authority show an increase in Salmonella Enteritidis prevalence in laying hen flocks. For this reason, the implementation of innovative techniques such as phage therapy is needed to control Salmonella at farm level.

  24. Colonization of a commercial broiler line by Campylobacter is under limited genetic control and does not significantly impair performance or intestinal health

    • Poultry Science

    • ABSTRACTCampylobacter is the leading bacterial cause of foodborne diarrheal illness in humans and source attribution studies unequivocally identify handling or consumption of poultry meat as a key risk factor. Campylobacter colonizes the avian intestines in high numbers and rapidly spreads within flocks. A need therefore exists to devise strategies to reduce Campylobacter populations in poultry flocks.
