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. Genomic and phenotypic analysis of SspH1 identifies a new Salmonella effector, SspH3

    • Molecular Microbiology

    • Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView. Salmonella is a major foodborne pathogen and is responsible for a range of diseases. Not all Salmonella contributes to severe health outcomes as there is a large degree of genetic heterogeneity among the 2,600 serovars within the genus. This variability across Salmonella serovars is linked to numerous genetic elements that dictate virulence.
