The type 3 secretion effector IpgD promotes S. flexneri dissemination.

PLoS Pathogens, 2022
The bacterial pathogen Shigella flexneri causes 270 million cases of bacillary dysentery worldwide every year, resulting in more than 200,000 deaths. S. flexneri pathogenic properties rely on its ability to invade epithelial cells and spread from cell to

Characterization of an emergent clone of enteroinvasive Escherichia coli circulating in Europe [PDF]

, 2016
Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli (EIEC) cause intestinal illness indistinguishable from that caused by Shigella, mainly in developing countries. Recently an upsurge of cases of EIEC infections has been observed in Europe, with two large outbreaks ...

Harnessing Pelargonium Odoratissimum Extracts for Sustainable Ground Meat Preservation

Journal of Food Science, Volume 90, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Pelargonium odoratissimum is traditionally recognized for its medicinal properties, yet its potential in food preservation remains underexplored. This study evaluated the phytochemical composition, antioxidant capacity, and antibacterial activity of its solvent extracts, with emphasis on the ethyl acetate fraction.

Time‐Temperature Indicators on Food Products

Food Risk Assess Europe, Volume 3, Issue 4, October 2025.
Abstract Time‐temperature indicators (TTIs) are devices that measure the cumulative thermal exposure of food products and display it through a visible signal, such as a color change. TTIs may be based on chemical, enzymatic or microbiological principles. Their potential lies in providing dynamic, package‐specific information on remaining shelf life, in
