Development of antibiotic resistance in foodborne pathogens, Salmonella spp. and Campylobacter, is a public health concern. Public demand to reduce the use sub-therapeutic growth promoters (AGP) poultry feeding has resulted greater adoption antibiotic-free production systems. There need understand effects AGP removal from feed on gut microbiota its impact prevalence pathogens. The effect withdrawal microbial community, host performance immunity, Campylobacter was evaluated. Birds were raised...
Salmonella spp. are among the most common foodborne pathogens, and increase in occurrence of antimicrobial drug-resistant poses a severe risk to public health. The main objective this study was determine changes prevalence their resistance on poultry farms following recommendations biosecurity practices. Four were sampled by collecting cloacal swabs, drag litter samples prior recommended (March-April) post (October-November). Prevalence 3 4% during pre-recommendations, while higher (P >...
Campylobacter is a leading cause of enteric disease worldwide. No antibiotics ever (NAE) poultry has become increasingly popular, yet little known about the incidence and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in this production system. This study was conducted to determine prevalence, concentration, AMR conventional (CV) NAE-raised broilers. Two CV two NAE commercial broiler flocks were included study. Cecum (n = 420) ileum chickens collected at different stages during grow-out phase following...
Outbreaks associated with leafy greens have focused attention on the transfer of human pathogens to these commodities during harvest commercial equipment. Attachment Escherichia coli O157:H7 new or rusty spinach harvester blades immersed in extract 10% tryptic soy broth (TSB) was investigated. Bacteriophages specific for E. were evaluated kill cells attached blade. A cocktail five nalidixic acid-resistant isolates transferred 25 mL TSB. piece sterilized blade (2 × 1") placed above TSB and...
In vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted to study the effects of synbiotic supplementation on Salmonella enterica ser. Enteritidis (SE) proliferation, cecal content load, broiler carcass contamination. Lactobacillus reuteri, Enterococcus faecium, Bifidobacterium animalis, Pediococcus acidilactici culture supernatants decreased (P < 0.05) proliferation SE at 1:1 supernatant: pathogen dilution. A total 240 Cobb-500 chicks randomly allotted three treatment groups (8 replicates/group with...
Poultry processors use antimicrobials to reduce the risk of pathogens on poultry and products. The efficacy selective nonselective plating media enumerate injured Salmonella (selective media-brilliant green sulfa agar Petrifilm Enterobacteriaceae Plate Count; media-tryptic soy Aerobic Count) Campylobacter medium-Campy cefex medium-Brucella agar) populations peroxy acetic acid (PAA) chicken breast fillets were evaluated. All for contained nalidixic (200 ppm) or gentamycin ppm), respectively....
Poultry processing plants in the United States were surveyed on their current Campylobacter and Salmonella control practices. Following surveys, data collected to develop a baseline for prevalence rates of Campylobacter; then changes practices implemented evaluated improvements pathogen control. Surveys sent plant Quality Assurance managers determine production levels, antimicrobial interventions, testing Initial sampling was performed at 6 with similar volumes, sites that included carcass...
Meat from broilers raised without the use of antibiotics is becoming increasingly popular among consumers. Consequently, interest in microbial profiling chickens produced under nonconventional practices growing, however, research on this topic lacking. The current study was designed to characterize dynamics gut populations conventional and no ever (NAE) practices. Four commercial farms (2 2 NAE) were included study. On each farm, cecal (n = 224) ileal contents collected birds at different...
Campylobacteris one of the leading cause foodborne illness in US and worldwide, especially linked to poultry products. In recent years, increasing popularity organic chicken products chickens raised without antibiotics (RWA) has resulted more companies adopting antibiotic-free production processing methods; however, it is not evident what effect these practices have on pathogens such as Campylobacter. The purpose this study was determine effects RWA methods prevalence antimicrobial...
Surface flood (SF) method is used to irrigate cotton in India, which results huge wastage of water besides leaching nutrients. This necessitates the adoption efficient management strategies save scarce without compromising yield. Therefore, a 2-year field investigation was conducted under two climatic regimes (Faridkot and Abohar) study effect sub-surface drip fertigation (SSDF) on seed yield (SCY), productivity, nitrogen use efficiency (NUE), economic parameters comparison with SF surface...
Market trends indicate an increased interest in natural antimicrobials to augment safety of ready-to-eat meat and poultry products against Listeria monocytogenes. Liquid smoke, all-natural condensate smoke components, applied as a postprocess treatment on product surface has the potential exhibit antilisterial properties. Studies its antimicrobial efficacy quality attributes ingredient are not sufficient. A study was designed validate effect liquid L. monocytogenes shelf life frankfurters....
