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.

  2. RelA/DTD-mediated regulation of spore formation and toxin production by Clostridium perfringens type A strain SM101

    • Microbiology

    • RelA is a global regulator for stationary phase development in the model bacterium Bacillus subtilis. The relA gene forms a bicistronic operon with the downstream dtd gene. In this study, we evaluated the significance of RelA and DTD proteins in spore formation and toxin production by an important gastrointestinal pathogen Clostridium perfringens. Our β-glucuronidase assay showed that in C.

  10. [ASAP] Pathological Features of Staphylococcus aureus Induced Mastitis in Dairy Cows and Isobaric-Tags-for-Relative-and-Absolute-Quantitation Proteomic Analyses

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • In part as a result of the production of an enterotoxin, Staphylococcus aureus is a highly infectious pathogen and is a considerable threat to food hygiene and safety. Clinical mastitis models were established by S. aureus nipple-tube perfusion. The influence of mastitis on the mammary-gland-tissue proteomic profile was investigated using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation.

  11. Histological parameters to evaluate intestinal health on broilers challenged with Eimeria and Clostridium perfringens with or without enramycin as growth promoter

    • Poultry Science

    • ABSTRACTThe maintenance of integrity of the gastrointestinal tract is an important aspect for animal productivity, since it is able to absorb nutrients more efficiently and serves as a barrier against microorganisms. To control agents detrimental to intestinal integrity, growth-promoting antibiotics (AGP) are used, which reduce the number of toxin-producing microorganisms in the intestinal lumen, acting as anti-inflammatory agents.
