Prevalence of colistin-resistant in foods and food-producing animals through the food chain: A worldwide systematic review and meta-analysis.

The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to summarize the available scientific evidence on the prevalence of colistin-resistant strains isolated from foods and food-producing animals, the mobile colistin-resistant genes involved, and the impact of the associated variables. A systematic review was carried out in databases according to selection criteria and search strategies established . Random-effect meta-analysis models were fitted to estimate the prevalence of colistin-resistant and to identify the factors associated with the outcome.

Inhibitor activity of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LP5 on thermotolerant campylobacter with different biofilm-forming capacities.

Aims: To evaluate the biofilm-forming capacity of thermotolerant Campylobacter (TC) strains from poultry production and to analyse the inhibitory capacity of Lactiplantibacillus plantarum LP5 against TC on different materials.

Methods And Results: Biofilm-forming capacity by Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli was analysed by cell adhesion in polystyrene plates. TC were classified as non-biofilm-forming (NBF, 1.

Effects of lactic acid bacteria and coagulase-negative staphylococci on dry-fermented sausage quality and safety: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

The meta-analysis aim was to confirm and quantifying the influence of starter cultures on microbiological and physical-chemical parameters of dry-fermented sausages at the end fermentation stage. The literature search yielded 1194 citations, and 77 studies with 178 experiments were eligible and included in the meta-analysis, a random-effects model was used to estimate the pooled weighted mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence interval (CI).The use of starter culture in dry-fermented sausages significantly reduced pH (MD: -0.

Development of Healthier and Functional Dry Fermented Sausages: Present and Future.

In recent years, consumer perception about the healthiness of meat products has changed. In this scenario, the meat industry and the scientific and technological areas have put their efforts into improving meat products and achieving healthier and functional formulations that meet the demands of today's market and consumers. This article aims to review the current functional fermented meat products, especially on sausage development.
