• Tracing foodborne pathogens

  In 2011, an outbreak of Listeria monocytogenes in cantaloupe led to almost 150 illnesses and 30 deaths. With a spate of recent outbreaks of such foodborne pathogens as Salmonella, Shiga toxin-producing E. coli and L. monocytogenes, the ability to predict where and how these deadly microbes enter the more

• Pathogens in food: Progress and new challenges for zoonosis control

  In early summer 2011, EHEC in raw sprouts made headlines in Germany, followed by headlines about a norovirus found on frozen strawberries in autumn 2012. These two major outbreaks again alerted the public to the significance of illnesses transmitted via food. "Although we are observing a decrease in more

• Agilent Technologies and FDA Collaborate to Improve Testing for Salmonella

  Agilent Technologies Inc. announced that it has entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to develop new tools to detect and analyze pathogens in food. The joint R&D effort will also seek to improve DNA-based tools for confirming that se more

• Microbial Variome Database: Point Mutations, Adaptive or Not, in Bacterial Core Genomes

  Analysis of genetic differences (gene presence/absence and nucleotide polymorphisms) among strains of a bacterial species is crucial to understanding molecular mechanisms of bacterial pathogenesis and selecting targets for novel antibacterial therapeutics. However, lack of genome-wide association s more

• Expression Divergence between Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium Reflects Their Lifestyles

  Escherichia coli K12 is a commensal bacteria and one of the best-studied model organisms. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, on the other hand, is a facultative intracellular pathogen. These two prokaryotic species can be considered related phylogenetically, and they share a large amount of t more

• The expression of adhesin EF‐Tu in response to mucin and its role in Lactobacillus adhesion and competitive inhibition of enteropathogens to mucin

  Abstract Aims To analyse the expression of EF‐Tu in Lactobacillus strains with response to mucin exposure and its role in interfering with adhesion of enteropathogens to mucin. Methods and Results The Lactobacillus strains were analysed for their ability to adhere to immobilized mucin i more
