Exclusion of Seed Sprouts Salmonella Pathogens Through Bacteriophages
Abstract: Foodborne pathogens are contamination in foods; it results in poisoning conditions that reach to the consumers. Food poisoning responsible microbial inhabitants are progressive within a short duration and it is difficult to control their ascendancy. In practice, many chemical-based antimicrobial agents are used to control the foodborne pathogenic bacteria, subsequently with some drawbacks. Hence, we urgently need an attractive alternative to reduce bacterial food contamination. The lytic bacteriophages are the …
