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. Integration of electron beam technology into fresh produce wash water line: Effect of inoculum suspension medium and water quality parameters on the radioresistance of Salmonella Typhimurium ATCC 13311

    • Journal of Food Safety
    • Journal of Food Safety, EarlyView. Electron beam technology may be integrated into the fresh produce wash water line, as an advanced oxidation process (AOP). However, prior to implementation, effectiveness of the technology must be assessed. Hydroxyl radical scavengers were used to quantify the role of yield of hydroxyl radicals in inactivation of the selected pathogen in aqueous solution.

  3. Gamma radiation treatment of postharvest produce for Salmonella enterica reduction on baby carrot and grape tomato

    • Journal of Food Safety
    • Journal of Food Safety, EarlyView. Occurrences and contamination of Salmonella enterica on produce are a significant food safety issue. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effects of low-dose gamma radiation on survival and reductions of S. enterica on postharvest carrot and tomato. Irradiation treatments of 0–1 kGy were applied on produce, following pathogen inoculations in replicated experiments.

  8. Comparison of selective enrichment and plating media for Salmonella isolation from broiler carcasses

    • Journal of Food Safety
    • Journal of Food Safety, Volume 41, Issue 6, December 2021. Salmonella detection and isolation rely on different selective enrichment media, which can influence which serovars are detected. The objective of this study was to compare Salmonella recovery from broiler carcass rinses using three different selective enrichment protocols and three differential plating agars. Eight prechill broiler carcasses were collected at a commercial slaughter facility.

  10. Mixed Salmonella cultures reveal competitive advantages between strains during pre‐enrichment and selective enrichment

    • Journal of Food Safety
    • Journal of Food Safety, Volume 41, Issue 6, December 2021. Culture-based Salmonella isolation consists of nonselective pre-enrichment, followed by selective enrichment in Rappaport–Vassiliadis (RV) or tetrathionate (TT) broths, and subsequent plating on selective indicator agar. This study aimed to assess the recovery of two strains belonging to serovars Montevideo (strain ATCC-8387) and Typhimurium (strain ATCC-14028) when grown together in different media.

    • Journal of Food Processing and Preservation, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2022. Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis (SE) is a pathogenic bacteria frequently isolated from shell eggs. Among the surface pasteurization methods, infrared heating provides an easy and eco-friendly application. To eliminate SE on the surface of shell eggs, pasteurization was applied via two different approaches.
