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. A BTP1 prophage gene present in invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella determines composition and length of the O-antigen of the LPS

    • Molecular Microbiology

    • Salmonella Typhimurium isolate D23580 represents a recently identified ST313 lineage of invasive non-Typhoidal Salmonellae (iNTS). One of the differences between this lineage and other non-iNTS S. Typhimurium isolates is the presence of prophage BTP1. This prophage encodes a gtrC gene, implicated in O-antigen modification. GtrCBTP1 is essential for maintaining O-antigen length in isolate D23580, since a gtrBTP1 mutant yields a short O-antigen.

  5. Clinical Isolates of Salmonella enterica Serovar Agona Producing NDM-1 Metallo-{beta}-Lactamase: First Report from Pakistan [Case Reports]

    • Journal of Clinical Microbiology

    • We report two cases of infantile diarrhea due to multidrug-resistant, NDM-1 metallo-β-lactamase-producing Salmonella enterica serovar Agona from Pakistan. This study alerts toward possible risk of NDM-1 transmission to enteric fever pathogens and encourages microbiologists to consider active screening of carbapenem resistance in nontyphoidal Salmonella isolates.

  6. Genomic Signature of Multidrug-Resistant Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhi Isolates Related to a Massive Outbreak in Zambia between 2010 and 2012 [Bacteriology]

    • Journal of Clinical Microbiology

    • Retrospectively, we investigated the epidemiology of a massive Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi outbreak in Zambia during 2010 to 2012. Ninety-four isolates were susceptibility tested by MIC determinations. Whole-genome sequence typing (WGST) of 33 isolates and bioinformatic analysis identified the multilocus sequence type (MLST), haplotype, plasmid replicon, antimicrobial resistance genes, and genetic relatedness by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis and genomic deletions.

    • Journal of Clinical Microbiology

    • A retrospective investigation was performed to evaluate whole-genome sequencing as a benchmark for comparing molecular subtyping methods for Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis and survey the population structure of commonly encountered S. enterica serotype Enteritidis outbreak isolates in the United States. A total of 52 S.

  11. Mouse models for assessing the cross-protective efficacy of oral non-typhoidal Salmonella vaccine candidates harboring in-frame deletions of the ATP-dependent protease lon and other genes [STANDARD]

    • Journal of Medical Microbiology

    • In BALB/c mouse models of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) infection, a single oral immunization with a mutant strain with an insertion of the chloramphenicol resistance gene into the ATP-dependent protease clpP or lon gene decreased the number of salmonellae in each tissue sample five days after oral challenge with virulent S. Typhimurium at weeks 26 and 54 postimmunization. These data suggest that an oral immunization with the ClpP- or Lon-disrupted S.
