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.

  6. Inverse trends of Campylobacter and Salmonella in Swiss surveillance data, 1988-2013

    • Eurosurveillance

    • Clinical isolates of Campylobacter spp. and Salmonella spp. are notifiable in Switzerland. In 1995, Campylobacter replaced Salmonella as the most frequently reported food-borne pathogen. We analysed notification data (1988-2013) for these two bacterial, gastrointestinal pathogens of public health importance in Switzerland. Notification rates were calculated using data for the average resident population.

  13. Incidence and Antimicrobial Susceptibility to Clostridium perfringens in Premarket Broilers in Taiwan

    • Avian Diseases

    • Clostridium perfringens infection causes subclinical and clinical necrotic enteritis in poultry flocks, and it is estimated to result in US$2 billion of losses worldwide every year. The aims of this study were to determine the incidence, toxin types, and antimicrobial resistance levels to C. perfringens isolated from premarket, 5-wk-old, clinically healthy broiler chickens in Taiwan, and to examine the relationships between intestinal lesions and the numbers of C.

  16. WrpA is an atypical flavodoxin-family protein under regulatory control of the Brucella abortus general stress response system

    • Journal of Bacteriology

    • The general stress response (GSR) system of the intracellular pathogen Brucella abortus controls transcription of approximately 100 genes in response to a range of stress cues. The core genetic regulatory components of the GSR are required for B. abortus survival under non-optimal growth conditions in vitro, and for maintenance of chronic infection in an in vivo mouse model. The functions of the majority of the genes in the GSR transcriptional regulon remain undefined.

  18. Automated Multiplug Filtration Cleanup for PesticideResidue Analyses in Kiwi Fruit (Actinidia chinensis) and Kiwi Juice by Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry

    • Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

    • To reduce labor-consuming manual operation workload in the cleanup steps, an automated multiplug filtration cleanup (m-PFC) method for QuEChERS (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe) extracts was developed. It could control the volume and speed of pulling and pushing cycles accurately.
