Development of Predictive Modeling for Removal of Multispecies Biofilms of Enteritidis, , and from Poultry Slaughterhouse Surfaces.

Enteritidis, , and are among the most common foodborne pathogens worldwide, and poultry products are strongly associated with foodborne pathogen outbreaks. These pathogens are capable of producing biofilms on several surfaces used in the food processing industry, including polyethylene and stainless steel. However, studies on multi-species biofilms are rare.

Adhesion capacity of Salmonella Enteritidis, Escherichia coli and Campylobacter jejuni on polystyrene, stainless steel, and polyethylene surfaces.

Poultry products are recognized as the main source of Salmonella and Campylobacter jejuni infections in humans, while avian pathogenic Escherichia coli may have zoonotic potential and can be transmitted from chicken meat to humans. Biofilm formation contributes to their spread through the food chain. This study aimed to compare the adhesion of Salmonella Enteritidis, E.

Antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity of silver nanoparticles against Salmonella Enteritidis.

Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis is one of the main pathogens associated with foodborne illnesses worldwide. Biofilm formation plays a significant role in the persistence of pathogens in food production environments. Owing to an increase in antimicrobial resistance, there is a growing need to identify alternative methods to control pathogenic microorganisms in poultry environments.

Use of Molecular Pathogenicity Indices to Identify Pathogenic Strains of Pasteurella multocida.

In addition to being the causative agent of fowl cholera (FC), Pasteurella multocida is also one of the most prevalent opportunistic pathogens associated with respiratory diseases in various hosts. However, understanding of the traits that distinguish the virulent isolates that cause FC is still limited. The objective of this study was to characterize P.
