Investigating the Impact of Three Washing Methods on Microbial Reduction, Color, and Texture of Spinach and Tomatoes

Future Postharvest and Food, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 251-260, June 2026.
The effectiveness of three washing methods (tap water, 0.01% sodium hypochlorite, and 1% citric acid) was investigated on spinach and tomatoes. The citric acid solution demonstrated the highest microbial reduction for both spinach and tomatoes, particularly during storage, and maintained the produce texture or color.

The Effect of Lactic Acid in Association With Steam in Reducing Microorganisms in Soft Wheat

Cereal Chemistry, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 288-299, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Within the food industry, steam is an effective method of microbial reduction for a variety of products. Previous studies have shown that tempering soft wheat with organic acids, as well as steam application, can potentially reduce wheat's microbial load with minor changes in the functional properties of the flour ...

Host Factor Induced Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles Promote Horizontal Gene Transfer in Vibrio cholerae

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 15, Issue 5, May 2026.
Antimicrobial stressors, that is, bile or mitomycin C, induce enlarged, nucleic acid‐rich bacterial extracellular vesicles in Vibrio cholerae that facilitate horizontal gene transfer in vitro and during intestinal colonisation. The findings provide a detailed comparison of control versus stress‐induced vesicles, identify bile as a host factor shaping ...
