Limited association between disinfectant use and either antibiotic or disinfectant susceptibility of Escherichia coli in both poultry and pig husbandry [PDF]

, 2019
Background Farm disinfectants are widely used in primary production, but questions have been raised if their use can select for antimicrobial resistance.

The Prevalence and Control of Bacillus and Related Spore-Forming Bacteria in the Dairy Industry [PDF]

, 2015
peer-reviewedMilk produced in udder cells is sterile but due to its high nutrient content, it can be a good growth substrate for contaminating bacteria. The quality of milk is monitored via somatic cell counts and total bacterial counts, with prescribed ...

Consumer exposure to biocides - identification of relevant sources and evaluation of possible health effects

Environmental Health, 2010
Background Products containing biocides are used for a variety of purposes in the home environment. To assess potential health risks, data on products containing biocides were gathered by means of a market survey, exposures were estimated using a worst ...

Development of antiseptic adaptation and cross-adapatation in selected oral pathogens in vitro [PDF]

, 2019
There is evidence that pathogenic bacteria can adapt to antiseptics upon repeated exposure. More alarming is the concomitant increase in antibiotic resistance that has been described for some pathogens.

Discharge and fate of biocide residuals to ephemeral stormwater retention pond sediments

Hydrology Research, 2022
Biocides used in paints and renders prevent algae and fungi growth but can wash off during wind-driven rain and enter urban environments. Retention ponds represent part of stormwater management that retain water and partly pollutants.

Development of limiting dilution viability pcr method to assess the effectiveness of selected biocides to treat indoor fungi growth [PDF]

, 2019
Indoor fungal contamination should be treated with cost-effective and green methods. Biocides have direct biological effect on living organisms but the evidence on their control of indoor fungal contamination is scarce.
