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. A Single-Laboratory Performance Evaluation of MALDI-TOF MS in Rapid Identification of Staphylococcus aureus, Cronobacter sakazakii, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Some Closely Related Bacterial Species of Public Health Importance

    • Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL
    • Background Staphylococcus is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria, known to cause food poisoning and gastrointestinal illness in humans. Additionally, the emergence of methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) strains has caused a major health care burden worldwide. Cronobacter is a group of Gram-negative bacteria that can survive in extreme dry conditions. Cronobacter sakazakii is known to contaminate powdered infant formula and cause life-threatening infections in neonates.
