Food systems account for 21-37% of total net anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, in the European Union, the retail and consumption stages account for half of the total food waste produced across the entire food supply chain. For this, there is a continuous development of novel ...

Previous studies confirmed that the metal antimicrobial peptide SIF₄ had good antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, and the changes of internal and external factors of food had little effect on the relative antimicrobial activity(RAMA) and had good biocompatibility. In this study,...

Canadian First Nations communities rely on traditional preservation methods such as the smoking, drying, and canning of fish and game meats to ensure long-term food security. Unlike commercial food production, there are no recognized official standards for these methods, rendering their efficacy in ...

Food is rich in nutrients such as protein and fat, and is easily polluted by microorganisms during processing, transportation and storage, which may cause potential adverse-effects on food quality, flavor, and safety. The inhibition of food pathogenic and spoilage microorganisms becomes the...

In this study, fermented sausage, salami, sausage, and hamburger meatballs produced by 6 different companies were assessed for pathogen contamination. These firms were either International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 22000-compliant or non- ISO 22000 compliant. Samples were taken 4 times ...

Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major pathogens causing foodborne outbreaks and severe infections worldwide.

Herbs and spices, having antimicrobial effect, can be incorporated into edible films to extend product shelf life and to reduce the risk of microbial growth on food. Chitosan edible films have shown great promise for their application in food preservation and also are promising systems to be used...

This study aimed to assess the antibiotic susceptibility and biofilm formation ability of pathogens isolated from braised fish as well as characterize and evaluate the antibacterial, antiadhesive, and antibiofilm activities of the biosurfactant from Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. tolerans N2...

Background and Aim: Raw goat milk is a highly nutritious dairy product and a suitable medium for the growth of antimicrobial-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, the leading cause of subclinical mastitis. This study aimed to investigate the resistance status of S. aureus which isolated from goat milk...
