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. Draft Genome Sequence of Clostridium perfringens netB-Positive Strain 2016TE7641_69, Isolated from the Intestine of a Diseased Turkey in Italy

    • Microbiology Resource Announcements

    • Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Clostridium perfringens 2016TE7641_69, isolated from the intestine of a turkey reared in a conventional poultry flock located in central Italy, where animals were showing enteric disorders suggesting subclinical necrotic enteritis.

  2. Draft Genome Sequence of Clostridium perfringens Strain TAMU, Which Causes Necrotic Enteritis in Broiler Chickens

    • Microbiology Resource Announcements

    • Clostridium perfringens causes severe gastrointestinal diseases, which include necrotic enteritis (NE) in chickens, a deadly disease worldwide. We report here the draft genome sequence of Clostridium perfringens strain TAMU, which was used in developing an NE chicken challenge model. This C. perfringens TAMU genome sequence will aid in advancing potential intervention strategies to reduce NE pathogenesis.
