Growth and Non-Thermal Inactivation of Staphylococcus aureus in Sliced Dry-Cured Ham in Relation to Water Activity, Packaging Type and Storage Temperature
(MDPI, 2023-05-30)
Dry-cured ham (DCH) could support the growth of Staphylococcus aureus as a halotolerant bacterium, which may compromise the shelf-stability of the product according to the growth/no growth boundary ...
Pathogenicity assessment of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and the public health risk posed by contamination of food with STEC
(Wiley Open Access, 2020-01-29)
The provisional molecular approach, proposed by EFSA in 2013, for the pathogenicity assessment of Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) has been reviewed. Analysis of the confirmed reported human ...
Evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the organic acids lactic and acetic acids to reduce microbiological surface contamination on pork carcasses and pork cuts
(Wiley, 2018-12-12)
Studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of lactic and acetic acids to reduce microbiological surface
contamination on pork carcasses pre-chill and pork meat cuts post-chill were assessed. Lactic ...
Maximum levels of cross-contamination for 24 antimicrobial active substances in non-target feed. Part 8: Pleuromutilins: tiamulin and valnemulin
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-10-26)
The specific concentrations of tiamulin and valnemulin in non-target feed for food-producing animals, below which there would not be an effect on the emergence of, and/or selection for, resistance in ...
Control of Listeria monocytogenes in chicken dry-fermented sausages with bioprotective starter culture and high-pressure processing
(Frontiers Media, 2022-09-30)
Listeria monocytogenes is one of the most relevant pathogens for ready-to-eat food, being a challenge for the food industry to comply with microbiological criteria. The aim of the work was to assess the ...
BSE risk posed by ruminant collagen and gelatine derived from bones
(Wiley Open Access, 2024-07-16)
The European Commission requested an estimation of the BSE risk (C-, L- and H-BSE) from gelatine and collagen derived from ovine, caprine or bovine bones, and produced in accordance with Regulation (EC) ...
Update of the list of QPS-recommended microbiological agents intentionally added to food or feed as notified to EFSA 16: suitability of taxonomic units notified to EFSA until March 2022
(Wiley Open Access, 2022-07-25)
The qualified presumption of safety (QPS) approach was developed to provide a regularly updated generic pre-evaluation of the safety of microorganisms, intended for use in the food or feed chains, to ...
The Antilisterial Effect of Latilactobacillus sakei CTC494 in Relation to Dry Fermented Sausage Ingredients and Temperature in Meat Simulation Media
(MDPI, 2024-06-20)
Listeria monocytogenes, the causative agent of listeriosis, is a relevant pathogen in dry fermented
sausages (DFSs), and the application of antilisterial starter cultures is an effective intervention
strategy ...
Revalorization of Cava Lees to Improve the Safety of Fermented Sausages
(MDPI, 2021-08-18)
The revalorization of food processing by-products not only reduces the environmental impact of their disposal, but also generates added economic value. Cava lees consist of inactive cells of Saccharomyces ...
Key Factors Determining the Behavior of Pathogens in Dry-Cured Ham after High Pressure Processing
(MDPI, 2022-12-12)
High pressure processing (HPP) inactivates pathogens and increases the safety of ready-to-eat meat products. The high-pressure lethality and the behavior of the surviving cells after HPP depends on ...
