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.

  1. Usefulness of High-Quality Core Genome Single-Nucleotide Variant Analysis for Subtyping the Highly Clonal and the Most Prevalent Salmonella enterica Serovar Heidelberg Clone in the Context of Outbreak Investigations [Epidemiology]

    • Journal of Clinical Microbiology

    • Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg is the second most frequently occurring serovar in Quebec and the third-most prevalent in Canada. Given that conventional pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) subtyping for common Salmonella serovars, such as S. Heidelberg, yields identical subtypes for the majority of isolates recovered, public health laboratories are desperate for new subtyping tools to resolve highly clonal S. Heidelberg strains involved in outbreak events.
