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. Availability of culture filtrate protein‐10 (CFP‐10) secreted from Mycobacterium pseudoshottsii for mycobacteriosis diagnosis in ginbuna crucian carp Carrasius auratus langsdorfii

    • Journal of Fish Diseases
    • Mycobacteriosis in cultured fish is a challenge for the aquaculture industry worldwide. Treatment by chemical administration is difficult and no effective vaccine has been developed. Therefore, detection and isolation by early diagnosis are important for prevention of the spread of the disease.

  2. Factors associated with severity of naturally occurring piscirickettsiosis in netpen‐ and tank‐reared juvenile Atlantic salmon at a research aquarium in western Canada

    • Journal of Fish Diseases
    • The opportunistic examination of factors associated with an outbreak of piscirickettsiosis (SRS) is described in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar post‐smolts held in an open netpen or in tanks supplied with raw sea water at a research aquarium in western Canada. During the outbreak, seawater temperature was significantly higher and salinity significantly lower in the netpen compared with the tanks.

  3. Changes in physiology and virulence during the selection of resistant Yersinia ruckeri mutants under subinhibitory cefotaxime concentrations

    • Journal of Fish Diseases
    • Bacterial antibiotic resistance is one of the main healthcare problems currently. Apart from reducing antibiotic efficacy, it has awakened the interest of scientists due to its association with bacterial fitness and virulence. Interestingly, antibiotic resistance can be a source of both increased fitness and decreased fitness, even though the molecular basis of these relationships remains unknown.

  4. Evidence of fish and human pathogens associated with doctor fish (Garra rufa, Heckel, 1843) used for cosmetic treatment

    • Journal of Fish Diseases
    • Doctor fish (Garra rufa, Heckel, 1843) are increasingly used for cosmetic treatment raising particular concerns regarding the potential transmission of infections to clients.

  5. A new potential therapeutic remedy against Aeromonas hydrophila infection in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) using tetra, Cotinus coggygria

    • Journal of Fish Diseases
    • Different antibiotic‐based drugs are being used for the treatment of Aeromonas hydrophila infection in rainbow trout, and several studies emphasize the use of medicinal plants as immunostimulants for prophylactic measure against Aeromoniasis disease. However, therapeutic effects of aqueous methanolic extracts of tetra (Cotinus coggygria) against A. hydrophila in rainbow trout were not investigated.
