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. Toxin genotypes of Clostridium perfringens isolates from common quail (Coturnix coturnix) with or without acute necrotic enteritis

    • Toxicon
    • Clostridial diseases are one of the foremost causes of mortality in quails which occur by Clostridium colinumClostridium perfringens (C. perfringens), and Clostridium sordellii. C. perfringens genotypes responsible for quail enteritis are not well understood. In this study, the prevalence of C.
