Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococci (MRS) and Salmonella spp. in Consumer Egg SamplesAna Claudia Lemes Pavan, Rafaella da Silva, Vanessa Kelly Capoia Vignoto et al.Despite the excellent nutritional value, the egg can be an important vehicle for bacterial infections carried by food, among them, multiresistant Staphylococci and salmonellosis. The objective of this work was to detect the presence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus spp. (MRS) and Salmonella spp. Forty dozen eggs were obtained from three free-trade fairs in the Umuarama-PR; every dozen eggs comprised a sample. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 3 · 21 Aug 2020 · 6,529 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview on Apiary Management and Antimicrobial Compounds as Alternative Prevention or Treatment for Honeybee DiseasesChanpen Chanchao, Marko Stoić, Mikio Yoshiyama, Kiyoshi KimuraHoneybees are important in terms of pollinators and bee products. However, honeybee colonies keep declining due to colony collapse disorder, loss of food sources, environmental deterioration, pesticide exposure and various diseases, as well as the interaction of these causes. Pathogenic infections are high because there is an antagonistic coevolution between host and pathogen/parasite, which leads to a reciprocal adaptation, as … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 15 Jan 2018 · 7,738 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombating Climate Change One Bite at a Time: Environmental Sustainability of Veganism (with a Socio-Behavioral Comparison of Vegans and Omnivores)Jennifer M. Ghahari, Jennifer A. McAdamIn an era of escalating climate change, our research examines the environmental benefits of veganism and finds which factors could contribute to a societal shift towards veganism. Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) release significant greenhouse gas emissions as well as expose people and animals to pathogens. Tropical rainforest destruction for grazing land, the vast amount of fresh/potable water needed for … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2018 · 9,761 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of an Immunomagnetic Separation Method for Viable Salmonella Typhimurium Detected by Flow CytometryShakil Ahmed, Horst-Günter Rubahn, Helmut ErdmannA very small number of bacterial pathogens may have fatal effects on food safety. In spite of having great advancements in bioanalytical methods, most of the accepted detection methods are still cultivation based and thus time consuming. This leads to an intense need for efficient and rapid methods for detection of food-related bacteria. In this study, a flow cytometry based … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2016 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Food Additives Nitrite and Nitrate and Microbiological Safety of Food ProductsStefanie Müller-Herbst, Anna Mühlig, Jan Kabisch et al.In Germany, raw sausages are typically produced according to a technology referred to as hurdle technology (Leistner, 2000). The combination of several stressful conditions should successfully inhibit growth and survival of pathogenic bacteria, which can be regularly found in raw pork or beef material (Mataragas et al., 2008; Rhoades et al., 2009). Hurdles applied during raw sausage fermentation are the … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2015 · 10,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiocontrol of Escherichia Coli O126:H7 in Skim Milk Using BacteriophagesMona H. Tolba, Arafa M.S. Meshref, Mohamed M.A. ZeinhomEscherichia coli (E. coli) is currently one of the most predominant human food-borne pathogens. In the dairy industry, recently, attention has been drawn to the potential use of bacteriophages (phages) to control bacteria in dairy products. In this study, a cocktail of three Escherichia coli bacteriophages (EcoM-AG2, EcoM-AG3 and EcoM-AG10) was tested to evaluate its ability to control Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2014 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite
