Atmospheric plasma inactivation of foodborne pathogens on fresh produce surfaces.
A study was conducted to determine the effect of one atmosphere uniform glow discharge plasma (OAUGDP) on inactivation of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella, and Listeria monocytogenes on apples, cantaloupe, and lettuce, respectively. A five-strain mixture of cultured test organisms was washed, suspended in phosphate buffer, and spot inoculated onto produce (7 log CFU per sample). Samples wer...
متن کاملWhat else can we do to mitigate contamination of fresh produce by foodborne pathogens?
The beginning of the 21st century and the third millennium marks a revolution in science and technology with innovations in multiple areas, including space science, computer sciences, communication, biotechnology, nanotechnology and the human genome project, to name a few. Yet at the same time people are still getting ill from eating contaminated food, with a heavy toll on public health and eco...
متن کاملInhibition of pathogens on fresh produce by ultraviolet energy.
Ultraviolet energy at a wavelength of 253.7 nm (UVC) was investigated for its bactericidal effects on the surface of Red Delicious apples, leaf lettuce and tomatoes inoculated with cultures of Salmonella spp. or Escherichia coli O157:H7. Inoculated samples were subjected to different doses ranging from 1.5 to 24 mW/cm(2) of UVC and enumerated on tryptic soy agar plus 0.05 g/l nalidixic acid to ...
متن کاملFresh produce as a potential vector for bacterial human pathogens
The predicted massive growth in the world overall population and the proportion of the elderly together with climate change and water shortages pose major global challenges in ensuring food security, both in terms of availability and safety. The geographic and demographic changes are likely to force unprecedented changes in land usage and agricultural practices (i.e. bringing closer together an...
متن کاملMolecular approaches for detection and identification of foodborne pathogens
Foodborne pathogens comprise microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria and parasites that can be transmitted by food and affect public health worldwide. The most common viruses transmitted via food are hepatitis A virus and Norwalk-like caliciviruses. Also, the most common bacteria involved in foodborne illnesses are Campylobacter jejuni, Clostridium perfringens, Salmonella spp, Escherichia...
