Risk management tool to define a corrective storage to enhance Salmonella inactivation in dry fermented sausages
(Elsevier, 2021-03-16)
The resistance of Salmonella to the harsh conditions occurring in shelf-stable dry fermented sausages (DFS) poses a food safety challenge for producers. The present study aimed to model the behaviour ...
Quantifying the bioprotective effect of Lactobacillus sakei CTC494 against Listeria monocytogenes on vacuum packaged hot-smoked sea bream
(Elsevier, 2020-09-30)
In this study, the bioprotective potential of Lactobacillus sakei CTC494 against Listeria monocytogenes CTC1034 was evaluated on vacuum packaged hot-smoked sea bream at 5 °C and dynamic temperatures ...
High pressure processing to control Salmonella in raw pet food without compromising the freshness appearance: The impact of acidulation and frozen storage
(Elsevier, 2022-09-09)
The trend of feeding dogs and cats with raw pet food claiming health benefits poses health concerns due to the occurrence of pathogenic bacteria. High pressure processing (HPP) allows the non-thermal ...
Challenges and opportunities related to the use of innovative modelling approaches and tools for microbiological food safety management
(Elsevier, 2022-04-01)
Modelling in food microbiology has become an indispensable approach in food safety to generate predictions about the microbial behaviour. One of its weaknesses is the lack of reliable and relevant data ...
Recent Smell Loss Is the Best Predictor of COVID-19 Among Individuals With Recent Respiratory Symptoms
(Oxford University Press, 2020-12-25)
In a preregistered, cross-sectional study, we investigated whether olfactory loss is a reliable predictor of COVID-19 using a crowdsourced questionnaire in 23 languages to assess symptoms in individuals ...
Modelling the interaction of the sakacin-producing Lactobacillus sakei CTC494 and Listeria monocytogenes in filleted gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) under modified atmosphere packaging at isothermal and non-isothermal conditions
(Elsevier, 2019-03-06)
The objective of this work was to quantitatively evaluate the effect of Lactobacillus sakei CTC494 (sakacin-producing bioprotective strain) against Listeria monocytogenes in fish juice and to apply and ...
Assessment of the bioprotective potential of lactic acid bacteria against Listeria monocytogenes on vacuum-packed cold-smoked salmon stored at 8 °C
(Elsevier, 2019-04-26)
Smoked salmon is a highly appreciated delicatessen product. Nevertheless, this ready-to-eat (RTE) product is considered at risk for Listeria monocytogenes, due to both the prevalence and growth potential ...
Enterocin A-based antimicrobial film exerted strong antilisterial activity in sliced dry-cured ham immediately and after 6 months at 8 °C
(Elsevier, 2022-02-28)
To minimize the survival of Listeria monocytogenes on ready-to-eat (RTE)-products, active antimicrobial packaging based on polyvinyl alcohol films with Enterocin A or ethyl-lauroyl-arginate (LAE) have ...
Modeling and designing a Listeria monocytogenes control strategy for dry-cured ham taking advantage of water activity and storage temperature
(Elsevier, 2020-03-21)
Dry-cured ham is a shelf-stable product that can be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes due to post-processing operations, compromising the compliance of zero tolerance policies (e.g. US Listeria ...
Use of risk assessment and predictive microbiology in regulatory science related to the scientific opinions of the EFSA BIOHAZ Panel
(Elsevier, 2023-06-25)
EFSA's Panel on Biological Hazards (BIOHAZ Panel) deals with questions on biological hazards relating to food safety and food-borne diseases. This covers food-borne zoonoses, transmissible spongiform ...
