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.

  15. A Rapid Sample Preparation Method for the Determination of Cadmium and Lead in Spinach and Artichoke Leaves Using Ozone

    • American Journal of Food Science and Technology

    • A novel method for sample preparation using an ozone-based process was optimized for the determination of Cd and Pb using electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ET-AAS). Advanced oxidation processes, which involve the in situ generation of highly potent chemical oxidants, are a promising technology to accelerate the oxidation at room temperature and the degradation of organic matter. A certified reference material of spinach leaves was used to evaluate the methodology.

  18. ArsP: a methylarsenite efflux permease

    • Molecular Microbiology

    • Trivalent organoarsenic compounds are far more toxic than either pentavalent organoarsenicals or inorganic arsenite. Many microbes methylate inorganic arsenite (As(III)) to more toxic and carcinogenic methylarsenite (MAs(III)). Additionally, monosodium methylarsenate (MSMA or MAs(V)) has been used widely as an herbicide and is reduced by microbial communities to MAs(III).
