Seasonal enterotoxaemia outbreaks in goats from the Peshawar and Charsadda districts were investigated through large‐scale faecal sampling, bacterial isolation, PCR‐based molecular confirmation of the etx gene, antimicrobial susceptibility testing and clinico‐therapeutic trials. The study demonstrates higher disease prevalence during spring and winter,

Clostridium perfringens forms heat‐resistant spores that complicate food safety. Physical methods (thermal processing, HPP, vacuum cooling, ozone treatments) and chemical interventions (natural antimicrobials, phosphates, nitrate/nitrite, organic acids) reduce vegetative cells and spores, though spore resistance remains a major challenge in food and ...

Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) strains are food‐borne pathogens of public health importance. Ruminants are the most important reservoir, but STEC human infections have also been attributed to pigs. A high prevalence of STEC was identified in the caecal content of pigs at slaughter in Italy.
