Laboratory biosafety for handling emerging viruses

Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine, 2017
Emerging viruses are viruses whose occurrence has risen within the past twenty years, or whose presence is likely to increase in the near future. Diseases caused by emerging viruses are a major threat to global public health.

Training in quantitative microbial risk assessment of Listeria monocytogenes in processing chains: Quantification of biofilm‐cells transfer integrating virulence and persistence factors

EFSA Journal, Volume 22, Issue S1, December 2024.
Abstract Food safety is a global challenge, with nearly 1 in 10 people worldwide falling ill each year from consuming contaminated food. The risk is particularly high in ready‐to‐eat (RTE) products, which are consumed without further cooking to eliminate harmful microorganisms.

Origin of the H1N1 (Russian influenza) pandemic of 1977—A risk assessment using the modified Grunow–Finke tool (mGFT)

Risk Analysis, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 2696-2706, November 2024.
Abstract In 1977, the Soviet Union (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics [USSR]) notified the World Health Organization (WHO) about an outbreak of H1N1 influenza, which later spread to many countries. The H1N1 strain of 1977 reappeared after being absent from the world for over 20 years.

Use of a risk assessment tool to determine the origin of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2)

Risk Analysis, Volume 44, Issue 8, Page 1896-1906, August 2024.
Abstract The origin of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) is contentious. Most studies have focused on a zoonotic origin, but definitive evidence such as an intermediary animal host is lacking. We used an established risk analysis tool for differentiating natural and unnatural epidemics, the modified Grunow–Finke assessment ...

Effects of two delivery matrix components, alginate and polyethylene glycol, on the intestinal tract and inflammatory response of juvenile rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, Walbaum

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 55, Issue 1, Page 202-222, February 2024.
Abstract A critical step in the administration of oral vaccines in aquaculture is the effective protection of the vaccine antigens through the delivery route of water to stomach to the mucosal immune system in the gut. Bioactive substances can be incorporated into protective matrices to ensure safe ingestion and controlled release into the posterior ...

A need for an integrated management process for biorisks [PDF]

Microbiology Australia, 2008
Biosafety has been a long-term issue in microbiology laboratories and has arisen out of the need to properly handle and prevent laboratory acquired infections. Yet, despite the adoption of a Standard for biosafety in Australia over 3 decades ago, such infections still occur.
