  1. Comparison of multiple methods for induction of necrotic enteritis in broilers. I

    • Journal of Applied Poultry Research

    • SUMMARYA variety of necrotic enteritis (NE) research methodologies exist in the literature, many with components that do not represent standard industry practices. The models tested here aimed to investigate multiple NE methods that represent common broiler production systems.

  2. Evaluation of Ventilation Shutdown in a Multi-level Caged System

    • Journal of Applied Poultry Research

    • SUMMARYIn 2015, the United States experienced an extensive outbreak of highly pathogenic avian influenza resulting in the depopulation of 42.1 million commercial egg-laying hens. Existing mass depopulation methods in multilevel caged systems utilized throughout the egg industry provide a challenge for producers and emergency personnel.

    • Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences

    • While the structure and regulatory networks that govern type-six secretion system (T6SS) activity of Vibrio cholerae are becoming increasingly clear, we know less about the role of T6SS in disease. Under laboratory conditions, V. cholerae uses T6SS to outcompete many Gram-negative species, including other V. cholerae strains and human commensal...

  21. rGO-NS SERS-based coupled chemometric prediction of acetamiprid residue in green tea

    • Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

    • Pesticide residue in food is of grave concern in recent years. In this paper, a rapid, sensitive, SERS (Surface-enhanced Raman scattering) active reduced-graphene-oxide-gold-nano-star (rGO-NS) nano-composite nanosensor was developed for the detection of acetamiprid (AC) residue in green tea.

  22. In vitro α-amylase and pancreatic lipase inhibitory activity of Cornus mas L. and Cornus alba L. fruit extracts

    • Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

    • Less-common fruits from Cornus spp. (Cornaceae), also named dogwood, species have shown antidiabetic, antibacterial and anti-allergic properties and are thus considered a source of phytochemicals that are beneficial to human health. The study aimed to compare the chemical compositions of the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of lyophilized fresh-picked and commercially available dried fruits of Cornus mas (Cm, cornelian cherry) and Cornus alba (Ca) fruits using HPLC-DAD-MS/MS method.

  23. Prioritization of pesticides in crops with a semi-quantitative risk ranking method for Taiwan postmarket monitoring program

    • Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

    • A risk-based prioritization of chemical hazards in monitoring programs allows regulatory agencies to focus on the most potentially concerned items involving human health risk. In this study, a risk-based matrix, with a scoring method using multiple factors for severity and probability of exposure, was employed to identify the pesticides presented in crops that may pose the greatest risk to human health.

  24. Prospects of using nanotechnology for food preservation, safety, and security

    • Journal of Food and Drug Analysis

    • The rapid development of nanotechnology has transformed many domains of food science, especially those that involve the processing, packaging, storage, transportation, functionality, and other safety aspects of food. A wide range of nanostructured materials (NSMs), from inorganic metal, metal oxides, and their nanocomposites to nano-organic materials with bioactive agents, has been applied to the food industry.

  25. Influence of a specific amino acid pattern in the diet on the course of an experimental Campylobacter jejuni infection in broilers

    • Poultry Science

    • ABSTRACTCampylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is one of the most important zoonotic pathogens worldwide. In Europe, the majority of the cases are caused by consuming contaminated poultry meat. The objective of the present study was to investigate potential effects of different crude protein levels in complete diets for broilers on infection dynamics of C. jejuni after experimental infection.
