Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Roberta Taddei"
- Roberta Taddei's recent research focuses on the intersection of wildlife health and food safety, specifically examining diseases in animal populations and their implications for public health, as seen in studies involving avian botulism, viral pathogens in red foxes, and emerging zoonotic diseases like listeriosis from sea turtles.
- Her investigations highlight significant outbreaks, such as the avian botulism incident in northeastern Italy, while also addressing antibiotic resistance in pathogens linked to wildlife and domestic animals, as illustrated in her work on Group B Streptococcus in pigs and porcupines.
- Taddei also explores the food industry’s challenges related to microbial contamination, providing insights into pathogen prevalence in traditional Italian meats and the effectiveness of food safety interventions, with studies on Salmonella and Listeria in cured meats tailored for export markets.
