Global Prevalence of Salmonella-Mediated Gastroenteritis: A Brief Review
Abstract: Salmonella-mediated gastroenteritis, which has a large impact on morbidity and mortality worldwide is a serious public health issue. Millions of instances of gastroenteritis are linked to Salmonella each year, making it the major cause of foodborne sickness worldwide. Salmonella belongs to the Enterobacteriaceae family and is classified as a Gram-negative bacterium. It was named afterAmerican veterinary surgeon Daniel Elmer Salmon (1850–1914). In 2010, the World Health Organisation reported high case …

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 …

Antibacterial Activity of Seed Extracts of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) against Selected Pathogens
Abstract: The aim of the study was to determine the antibacterial potency of aqueous and ethanoic extracts of Abelmoschus esculentus seeds. Antibacterial activity of aqueous and ethanoic extracts of A. esculentus seeds were evaluated against selected foodborne pathogens; Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella enterica, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli) using agar well diffusion method by measuring the clear zone of inhibition diameter in (mm). It was observed that the aqueous and …

Advanced Polymer-Based Packaging Composite with Metal Oxide Nanofillers: Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications
Abstract: The development of high-performance polymeric composites for food packaging applications has gained significant attention in recent years due to increasing concerns about food safety, durability, and environmental impact. The increasing demand for active packaging materials that not only protect food but also extend shelf life has led to extensive research into polymer-based antimicrobial composites. Traditional packaging materials, including plastics, ceramics, and metals, often lack bioactive properties and can contribute to …

Contamination of Salad Vegetables by Enteropathogens
Abstract: Salad vegetables provide nutrients, minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and are often consumed without cooking. The consumption of salad vegetables is a risk factor for infection by enteric bacterial, viral and parasitic pathogens. Vegetables that are consumed raw, are recognized as an important channel for the transmission of enteropathogens and considered as a high risk of microbiological contamination product. This mini review is based on the selected articles searched in research databases. …
