Salmonella has been reported to be presence both in raw and processed foods worldwide. In this study, the prevalence, quantification and antibiotic susceptibility of Salmonella isolated from raw vegetables or locally known as ulam such as asiatic pennywort (Centella asiatica (L) Urb), water dropwort (Oenanthe javanica (Blume) DC), long bean (Vigna sinensis EndL), and winged bean (Psophocarpus t...

Antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections are difficult to treat, producing a burden on healthcare and the economy. Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) strains frequently carry antibiotic resistance genes, cause infections outside of the intestine, and are causative agents of hospital-acquired infections. Developing a prevention strategy against this pathogen is challenging due ...

plant essential oils are natural products extracted from plants and because of their antimicrobial properties can be used as natural additives in foods. they are also useful for decontamination of food-borne pathogens and can be a safe additive in foods. the antimicrobial activities of essential oils belonging to saturiea hortensis, thymus vulgaris, mentha polegium, cuminum cyminum, lavandula o...

A multiplex PCR-based assay was developed for detection of Salmonella typhi and identification of other salmonella serotypes. Three primer-sets were selected from different genomic sequences, malo2-F/malo2-Ra primers from invasion gene, Parat-s/Parat-as as well as tyv-s/tyv-as primers from O-antigen gene cluster of the genus Salmonella. This method differentiated Salmonella spp., based on size ...

  A total of 60 neck skin swab samples were taken from 12 different broiler flocks after the chilling stage of processing at a commercial broiler slughtering facility in Mashhad. The presence of Salmonella was assessed by conventional culture method and confirmed by using poly O and poly H antiserum in serotyping. PCR amplification of invA gene as a specific method for detection of Salmonella w...

Among foodborne pathogens, Salmonella present a significant public health hazard as Salmonella caused the greatest number of foodborne deaths in the United States and was among the top three most frequent causes of bacterial foodborne illness in the United States (Mead et al., 1999). In 2002, Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Newport accounted for 2 of the top 3 most common Salmonella serov...

To develop a live vaccine strain against fowl typhoid and paratyphoid caused by Salmonella serovar Gallinarum biovar Gallinarum (Salmonella Gallinarum) and Salmonella serovar Enteritidis (Salmonella Enteritidis), respectively, several nalidixic acid resistant mutants were selected from lipopolysaccharide (LPS) rough strains of Salmonella Gallinarum that escaped from fatal infection of a LPS-bin...

This study explores the possibility of simultaneous and specific detection of Salmonella serovars by surface plasmon resonance (SPR). The Plasmonic SPR device was used to develop this rapid assay. The sandwich immunoassay involves the use of a polyclonal anti-Salmonella antibody to simultaneous capture multiple Salmonella serovars present in a sample. This is followed by specific detection of t...
