  2. Antimicrobial Effects of Essential Oils, Nisin, and Irradiation Treatments against Listeria monocytogenes on Ready-to-Eat Carrots

    • Journal of Food Science
    • The study aimed at using essential oilEO) alone or combined EO with nisin and low dose γ-irradiation to evaluate their antibacterial effect against Listeria monocytogenes during storage of carrots at 4 °C. Minicarrots were inoculated with L. monocytogenes at a final concentration of approximately 7 log CFU/g.

  3. Evaluation of Rapid Screening Techniques for Detection of Salmonella spp. from Produce Samples after Pre-enrichment According to FDA BAM and a Short Secondary Enrichment

    • Letters in Applied Microbiology
    • Conventional detection of Salmonella from foods involves enrichment and isolation on selective media which can significantly lengthen time to result. The objective of this study was to evaluate the utility of an accelerated plating procedure and the use of rapid screening devices for Salmonella detection. Fresh produce was inoculated with Salmonella at ~2.5, ~7.5 and ~25 cfu sample−1.

  15. Characterization of Listeria monocytogenes from three countries and antibiotic resistance differences among countries and L. monocytogenes serogroups

    • Letters in Applied Microbiology
    • A total of 104 Listeria monocytogenes isolates from 330 fish samples from three countries were characterized by multiplex PCR for serogrouping and virulence markers determination and tested for antibiotics resistance. A 53.8% of the isolates belonged to serogroup 1/2a, 3a; 32% belonged to 1/2b, 3b, 7, 14.4% belonged to 4b, 4d, 4e, and 1% belonged to 1/2c, 3c. All isolates exhibited resistance to at least one antibiotic but the resistance rates varied among countries.
