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. Serotype and antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella from poultry meats in 2021 in Shanghai, China

    • Food and Agricultural Immunology
    • Salmonella is a major cause of food poisoning, and its infection and antimicrobial resistance vary regionally due to different sanitary standards and the use of antimicrobials. The aim of this study is to evaluate the microbiological contamination and antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella in Shanghai, providing references for supervision over food safety and clinical treatment.

  2. Chloroquine potentially modulated innate immune response to Vibrio parahaemolyticus in RAW 264.7 macrophages

    • Food and Agricultural Immunology
    • Vibrio parahaemolyticus, as a vibriosis, causes huge losses to the aquaculture industry, food poisoning in humans and activates macrophages to induce pro-inflammatory cytokines. Chloroquine (CQ), as an anti-inflammatory property, this study aimed to investigate the effect of CQ on inflammatory response to V. parahaemolyticus in RAW 264.7 macrophages. The result showed that V.

  3. Local intestinal immune response including NLRP3 inflammasome in broiler chicken infected with Campylobacter jejuni after administration of Lactobacillus reuteri B1/1

    • Food and Agricultural Immunology
    • The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of Lactobacillus reuteri B1/1 on the local intestinal immune response in the cecum of chickens experimentally infected by C. jejuni CCM6189. Day-old chicken were divided into four groups: control (C), L. reuteri B1/1 (LR), C. jejuni CCM6189 (CJ), and combined L. reuteri B1/1 + C. jejuni CCM6189 (LRCJ). Cecal samples were collected during necropsy 12, 24, 48 hours after infection by C.
