  8. Palatability and hygiene characteristics of dry‐aged pork and optimization of dry‐aging period

    • International Journal of Food Science & Technology

    • To improve upon understanding of the quality characteristics of dry‐aged pork, pork belly and arm shoulder were dry aged for 0, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days. Their physicochemical, free amino acids (FAAs) content, and microbiological analysis were performed to evaluate palatability and hygiene. After 28 days of aging, total FAAs content increased by 56.1% and 71.4% for pork belly and arm shoulder, respectively. The amount of individual FAAs increased, except for glutamine.

  10. Antibodies generated against dextransucrase exhibit potential anticariostatic properties in Streptococcus mutans

    • Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology

    • Streptococcus mutans is a common principal causative agent of dental caries. In this communication, we describe that the antibodies raised against purified dextransucrase effectively inhibited the growth of S. mutans. The purified enzyme showed 58-fold enrichment, 17.5% yield and a specific activity of 3.96 units/mg protein. Purified IgG fraction of the antibody showed significant affinity with the antigenic protein.

    • European Food Research and Technology

    • Salmonella is a major cause of foodborne illness throughout the world and has resulted in a serious of public health issues over the past decades. The conventional culture methods for Salmonella detection are laborious and time-consuming; thus a variety of new methods have been developed to enable rapid detection.

    • Journal of Food Safety

    • The combined effect of the 222‐nm krypton‐chlorine (KrCl) excilamp and ohmic heating for the inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, and Escherichia coli O157:H7 in apple juice was investigated in this study. When ohmic heating and a KrCl excilamp were applied to apple juice simultaneously, the reduction level of E.

    • Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology

    • Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is an important zoonotic pathogen in public health and food safety. The type III secretion system (T3SS) encoded by Salmonella pathogenicity island (SPI) is a sophisticated molecular machine that facilitates active invasion, intracellular replication, and host inflammation.

  22. Whole‐genome sequencing reveals resistome of highly drug‐resistant retail meat and human Salmonella Dublin

    • Zoonoses and Public Health

    • Non‐typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) are a significant source of foodborne illness worldwide, with disease symptoms most often presenting as self‐limiting gastroenteritis; however, occasionally the infection spreads and becomes invasive, frequently requiring anti‐microbial treatment. The cattle‐adapted Dublin serovar of NTS has commonly been associated with invasive illness and anti‐microbial resistance (AMR).

  23. Removal of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and Cronobacter sakazakii biofilms from food contact surfaces through enzymatic catalysis

    • Journal of Food Safety

    • Enzymatic treatment is capable of removing the biofilm matrix so that the subsequent disinfection can be more effective. Abstract Bacterial biofilms are highly difficult to control, hence significant economic resources have been allocated to develop strategies to eradicate them. This study evaluated the effect of an enzymatic treatment to be used as a cleaning product to control the presence of biofilms.
