Tolerance of Senecio vulgaris to Infection and Disease Caused by Native and Alien Rust Fungi. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Plant defense strategies against pathogen attack can be divided into either resistance or tolerance. Variation in tolerance is expressed as differences in the relationship between host fitness (or yield) and the degree of infection.

Preparation and Storage of Cryoprecipitate Derived from Amotosalen and UVA-Treated Apheresis Plasma and Assessment of In Vitro Quality Parameters

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
Cryoprecipitate is a plasma-derived blood product, enriched for fibrinogen, factor VIII, factor XIII, and von Willebrand factor. Due to infectious risk, the use of cryoprecipitate in Central Europe diminished over the last decades.

The microbicidal potential of visible blue light in clinical medicine and public health

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Visible blue light of wavelengths in the 400–470 nm range has been observed to have microbicidal properties. A widely accepted hypothesis for the mechanism of microbial inactivation by visible blue light is that the light causes photoexcitation of either

Non-ionizing 405 nm Light as a Potential Bactericidal Technology for Platelet Safety: Evaluation of in vitro Bacterial Inactivation and in vivo Platelet Recovery in Severe Combined Immunodeficient Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
Bacterial contamination of ex vivo stored platelets is a cause of transfusion-transmitted infection. Violet-blue 405 nm light has recently demonstrated efficacy in reducing the bacterial burden in blood plasma, and its operational benefits such as non ...

Survival of Salmonella Typhimurium, Listeria monocytogenes, and ESBL Carrying Escherichia coli in Stored Anaerobic Biogas Digestates in Relation to Different Biogas Input Materials and Storage Temperatures

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Anaerobic digestates derived from agricultural mesophilic biogas plants are mainly used as organic fertilizers. However, animal derived pathogens could persist in the anaerobic digestates (ADs) posing an epidemiological risk.

Upgrade of waste stabilization ponds to improve effluents for reuse purposes

open access: yesH2Open Journal, 2023
Waste stabilization pond (WSP) systems exist in many countries affected by climate change causing increasing demand for irrigation water. There is little long-term experience with WSP in Africa, and thus, this study provides a comprehensive investigation

Efficacy of Acetic Acid against Listeria monocytogenes Attached to Poultry Skin during Refrigerated Storage

open access: yesFoods, 2014
This work evaluates the effect of acetic acid dipping on the growth of L. monocytogenes on poultry legs stored at 4 °C for eight days. Fresh inoculated chicken legs were dipped into either a 1% or 2% acetic acid solution (v/v) or distilled water ...

Efficacy and Safety of Pathogen-Reduced Platelets Compared with Standard Apheresis Platelets: A Systematic Review of RCTs

open access: yesPathogens, 2022
In this systematic review, we evaluate the efficacy and safety of blood components treated with pathogen reduction technologies (PRTs). We searched the Medline, Embase, Scopus, Ovid, and Cochrane Library to identify RCTs evaluating PRTs.

Pathogen reduction technology for blood component: A promising solution for prevention of emerging infectious disease and bacterial contamination in blood transfusion services

open access: yesJournal of Photochemistry and Photobiology, 2021
With the rapid evolving of emerging pathogens and residual risk of bacterial contamination in platelets, they continue to pose a constant threat to the safety of blood supply despite effort implemented to mitigate such risk via conventional measures and ...

Application of Amplon in combination with peroxyacetic acid for the reduction of nalidixic acid–resistant Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Reading on skin-on, bone-in tom turkey drumsticks

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2020
Peroxyacetic acid (PAA) has become an important component of pathogen reduction in poultry processing, but there are potential concerns for continued exposure.
