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.

  3. The endoribonuclease YbeY is linked to proper cellular morphology and virulence in Brucella abortus

    • Journal of Bacteriology

    • The endoribonuclease YbeY is one of the most well conserved proteins across the kingdoms of life. In the present study, we demonstrate that YbeY in Brucella abortus is linked to a variety of important activities, including proper cellular morphology, mRNA transcript levels, and virulence. Deletion of ybeY in B.

  6. [ASAP] Rapid Trace Detection and Isomer Quantitation of Pesticide Residues via Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Fourier Transform Ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (MALDI-FTICR-MS) has been applied for rapid, sensitive, undisputed, and quantitative detection of pesticide residues on fresh leaves with little sample pretreatment. Various pesticides (insecticides, bactericides, herbicides, and acaricides) are detected directly in the complex matrix with excellent limits of detection down to 4 μg/L.
