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. Biofilm formation and disinfectant resistance of Salmonella spp. in mono- and dual-species with Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    • Journal of Applied Microbiology
    • Abstract

      Aims

      This study aimed to evaluate the biofilm formation and disinfectant resistance of Salmonella cells in mono- and dual-species biofilms with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and to investigate the role of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) in protection of biofilms against disinfection treatment.

  5. Optimization of inactivated H5N9 highly pathogenic avian influenza vaccine and inactivated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium vaccine with antigen dose and prime-boost regimen in domestic ducks

    • Poultry Science
    • AbstractOwing to the increase in the number of diseases affecting ducks and the demand for food safety by consumers, vaccination has become one of the factors that influence duck meat productivity. The highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) virus is one of the most prevalent and causes one of the most lethal diseases in domestic ducks, and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is a food-borne pathogen persistent in the domestic duck population.

  6. Anaerobic cysteine degradation and potential metabolic coordination in Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli

    • Journal of Bacteriology
    • Salmonella enterica has two CutR-activated enzymes that degrade cysteine: the aerobic CdsH and an unidentified anaerobic enzyme; E. coli only has the latter. To identify the anaerobic enzyme, transcript profiling was performed from E. coli without cutR and with overexpressed cutR. 37 genes showed at least a five-fold change in expression, and the cutPA (formerly yhaOM) operon had the greatest differential.

  9. Bacteriophage use to control Salmonella biofilm on surfaces present in chicken slaughterhouses

    • Poultry Science
    • AbstractFoodborne diseases represent a major risk to public health worldwide. Pathogenic bacteria can live in the form of biofilm within the food industry, providing a permanent source of contamination. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the types of adhesion surfaces on Salmonella biofilm formation at eight different times, and analyze the action time of a bacteriophage pool on established biofilms.

    • Applied and Environmental Microbiology
    • The objective of this study was to investigate the thermal resistance and gene expression of both desiccation-adapted and rehydrated Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium cells in aged broiler litter. S. Typhimurium was desiccation adapted in aged broiler litter with a 20% moisture content (water activity [aw], 0.81) for 1, 2, 3, 12, or 24 h at room temperature and then rehydrated for 3 h.

    • Applied and Environmental Microbiology
    • Bacteriophage-based assays and biosensors rival traditional antibody-based immunoassays for detection of low-level Salmonella contaminations. In this study, we harnessed the binding specificity of the long tail fiber (LTF) from bacteriophage S16 as an affinity molecule for the immobilization, enrichment, and detection of Salmonella.
