Genomic diversity of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli isolated from the Ethiopian dairy supply chain.

Campylobacteriosis outbreaks have previously been linked to dairy foods. While the genetic diversity of Campylobacter is well understood in high-income countries, it is largely unknown in low-income countries, such as Ethiopia. This study therefore aimed to conduct the first genomic characterization of Campylobacter isolates from the Ethiopian dairy supply chain to aid in future epidemiological studies.

Multi-species biofilms of environmental microbiota isolated from fruit packing facilities promoted tolerance of to benzalkonium chloride.

may survive and persist in food processing environments due to formation of complex multi-species biofilms of environmental microbiota that co-exists in these environments. This study aimed to determine the effect of selected environmental microbiota on biofilm formation and tolerance of to benzalkonium chloride in formed biofilms. The studied microbiota included bacterial families previously shown to co-occur with in tree fruit packing facilities, including , and Biofilm formation ability and the effect of formed biofilms on the tolerance of to benzalkonium chloride was measured in single- and multi-family assemblages.
