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.

    • Infection and Immunity

    • In a previous study, a novel virulence gene, bstA, identified in a Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium sequence type 313 (ST313) strain was found to be conserved in all published Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin genomes. In order to analyze the role of this gene in the host-pathogen interaction in S. Dublin, a mutant where this gene was deleted (S. Dublin bstA) and a mutant which was further genetically complemented with bstA (S.

  8. A Naturally Occurring Deletion in FliE from Salmonella enterica Serovar Dublin Results in an Aflagellate Phenotype and Defective Proinflammatory Properties [Molecular Pathogenesis]

    • Infection and Immunity

    • Salmonella enterica serovar Dublin is adapted to cattle but is able to infect humans with high invasiveness. An acute inflammatory response at the intestine helps to prevent Salmonella dissemination to systemic sites. Flagella contribute to this response by providing motility and FliC-mediated signaling through pattern recognition receptors. In a previous work, we reported a high frequency (11 out of 25) of S. Dublin isolates lacking flagella in a collection obtained from humans and cattle.

  21. Molecular Ecology of Listeria spp., Salmonella, Escherichia coli O157:H7, and non-O157 Shiga Toxin Producing Escherichia coli in Pristine Natural Environments in Northern Colorado

    • Journal of Applied Microbiology

    • Abstract

      Aims

      Molecular subtyping is commonly used in foodborne disease surveillance and microbial source tracking. There is a knowledge gap regarding the molecular ecology of foodborne pathogens in non-food associated environments. The objective of this study was to isolate and subtype foodborne pathogens from pristine natural environments with minimal anthropogenic inputs.
