High relative humidity pre-harvest reduces post-harvest proliferation of Salmonella in tomatoes.
Outbreaks of human illness caused by enteric pathogens such as Salmonella are increasingly linked to the consumption of fruits and vegetables. Knowledge on the factors affecting Salmonella proliferation on fresh produce therefore becomes increasingly important to safeguard public health. Previous experiments showed a limited impact of pre-harvest production practices on Salmonella proliferation...
متن کاملHarvest and Post-harvest Operations
Harvest and post-harvest operations constitute principal constraints to rice production, especially in irrigated systems, because of the larger yield that has to be handled. Post-harvest crop losses of up to 35% have been reported and attributed to inefficiency of manual threshing of rice by small-scale farmers. This leads to poor grain quality and rejection of locally produced rice. The Africa...
متن کاملResting on transport trailer reduces Salmonella at harvest
A potential intervention strategy to reduce the prevalence of Salmonella enterica at harvest was evaluated, which consisted of resting pigs prior to harvest on their transport vehicle, instead of in the abattoir holding pen. Individual fecal samples were collected at the farm and at the abattoir (n= 120 pigs), where half of the pigs were unloaded, and moved to a holding pen, whereas the other h...
متن کاملFactors That Affect Proliferation of Salmonella in Tomatoes Post-Harvest: The Roles of Seasonal Effects, Irrigation Regime, Crop and Pathogen Genotype
MAIN OBJECTIVES Fresh fruits and vegetables become increasingly recognized as vehicles of human salmonellosis. Physiological, ecological, and environmental factors are all thought to contribute to the ability of Salmonella to colonize fruits and vegetables pre- and post-harvest. The goal of this study was to test how irrigation levels, fruit water congestion, crop and pathogen genotypes affect ...
