  17. Changes in Microbial Composition and the Prevalence of Foodborne Pathogens in Crab Marinated in Soy Sauce Produced by Six Manufacturing Plants

    • Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture

    • ABSTRACT

      BACKGROUND

      The present study examined the changes in microbiological composition during the production process of crab marinated in soy sauce, potential microbial hazards, potential contamination routes, and effective critical control points. Crab and soy sauce samples were obtained from six different manufacturing plants at different stages and the microbiological content was comprehensively assessed in quantitative and qualitative analyses.

  18. Toxins, Vol. 8, Pages 232: Hydrolytic Fate of 3/15-Acetyldeoxynivalenol in Humans: Specific Deacetylation by the Small Intestine and Liver Revealed Using in Vitro and ex Vivo Approaches

    • Toxins

    • In addition to deoxynivalenol (DON), acetylated derivatives, i.e., 3-acetyl and 15-acetyldexynivalenol (or 3/15ADON), are present in cereals leading to exposure to these mycotoxins. Animal and human studies suggest that 3/15ADON are converted into DON after their ingestion through hydrolysis of the acetyl moiety, the site(s) of such deacetylation being still uncharacterized.

  23. Multidrug-Resistant Shigella Infections in Patients with Diarrhea, Cambodia, 2014–2015

    • Emerging Infectious Diseases

    • We observed multidrug resistance in 10 (91%) of 11 Shigella isolates from a diarrheal surveillance study in Cambodia. One isolate was resistant to fluoroquinolones and cephalosporins and showed decreased susceptibility to azithromycin. We found mutations in gyrA, parC, β-lactamase, and mphA genes. Multidrug resistance increases concern about shigellosis treatment options.

  24. Toxins, Vol. 8, Pages 231: Susceptibility of Broiler Chickens to Coccidiosis When Fed Subclinical Doses of Deoxynivalenol and Fumonisins—Special Emphasis on the Immunological Response and the Mycotoxin Interaction

    • Toxins

    • Deoxynivalenol (DON) and fumonisins (FB) are the most frequently encountered mycotoxins produced by Fusarium species in livestock diets. The effect of subclinical doses of mycotoxins in chickens is largely unknown, and in particular the susceptibility of birds to pathogenic challenge when fed these fungal metabolites. Therefore, the present study reports the effects of DON and FB on chickens challenged with Eimeria spp, responsible for coccidiosis.
