Mitigating Microbial Contamination in Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Using Ultraviolet C Irradiation: A Review

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Although fresh produce is extremely perishable and contaminated, it is essential for good health. To eliminate important foodborne pathogens, this paper investigates UV‐C irradiation as a safe, nonthermal technique. UV dose, exposure duration, and product characteristics all affect effectiveness.

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Building evidence for transfusion practice: A pilot study on bacterial adhesion and growth in red blood cell infusion sets

Transfusion, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Blood administration sets are changed after a prescribed time interval with variations in guidelines. In Canada, sets are changed every 4 h based on the theory of potential bacterial attachment. This study aimed to investigate whether bacteria adhere to the inner surfaces of blood administration sets during mimicked transfusions of ...

Proteolytic and lipolytic potential of Pseudomonas spp. from goat and bovine raw milk

Pesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: Pseudomonas, the main genus of gram-negative microorganisms isolated from milk, is psychrotrophic, biofilm-forming, and thermo-resistant deteriorating enzyme producers. The aim of this study was to quantify Pseudomonas spp.

Production of Proteases by Psychrotrophic Microorganisms

Journal of Dairy Science, 1991
Six milk-derived psychrotrophic microbial cultures were screened for the ability to grow at refrigerated temperatures and produce proteases in reconstituted skim milk. Of these, two cultures, Pseudomonas fluorescens M3/6 and Pseudomonas fragi K122, produced extracellular protease(s) beginning 7 d postinoculation when the cultures had entered late log ...

Bacterial proliferation is comparable in red blood cell concentrates stored in DEHT/PAGGSM and DEHP/SAGM containers

Vox Sanguinis, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives The European Union's ban on the use of di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) in medical devices will take effect in 2030. DEHP is a plasticizer in polyvinyl chloride blood bags that helps stabilize the red blood cell membrane during hypothermic red blood cell concentrate (RBCC) storage.

Risk presented to minimally processed chilled foods by psychrotrophic Bacillus cereus

Trends in Food Science & Technology, 2019
Background Spores of psychrotrophic Bacillus cereus may survive the mild heat treatments given to minimally processed chilled foods. Subsequent germination and cell multiplication during refrigerated storage may lead to bacterial concentrations that are ...

Psychrotrophic Bacteria and Yeast Populations in Turkish White and Tulum Cheeses

International Journal of Gastronomy Research
In this study, pH and microbiological (psychrotrophic bacteria and yeast) properties of White and Tulum cheeses were investigated. According to the results of our study, the lowest pH value identified was 4.42, and the highest pH was 5.84 in the cheese ...

Psychrotrophic Microbiota in Milk and Fermented Milk Products

Journal of Pure and Applied Microbiology, 2019
Milk and dairy products form a significant part of the human diet. Temperature control is considered as the key to extend shelf life for dairy products. Psychrotrophs grow at temperature such as 7o C or lower but had higher optimal growth temperature.
