To assess whether reported toxicities of potato-derived glycoalkaloids could be the result of interactions with cellular DNA, the genotoxic effects of alpha-solanine, alpha-chaconine and solanidine were studied, using the Ames test (Salmonella strains TA98 and TA100), the mouse peripheral blood
Recommended drying treatments may not enhance destruction of pathogens that could be present on home-dried foods. In this study, the effects of traditional and modified treatments on Salmonella were evaluated during preparation, home-type dehydration (60 degrees C for 6 h), and storage of potato
Bacterial cross-contamination between foods and contact surfaces can increase food safety risk; however, these processes are not well described in terms of fundamental variables. The objective was to determine the effect of sliding speed (3.75, 5.00, or 7.75 mm/s), contact time (5 or 40 s), normal
A charred sample was prepared from potato starch heated with ammonium carbonate at 600 degrees C in a flask under a nitrogen stream. The water produced was collected and extracted with methylene chloride. The basic fraction obtained from the extract exhibited strong mutagenicity in Ames assays using
The radioresistance of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis, and S. enterica serovar Typhimurium has been studied in a complex matrix like mayonnaise potato salad. D(10)-values of 0.56, 0.32-0.35, and 0.41-0.42 kGy were calculated for each organism, respectively. Keeping
The focus of this study was to evaluate the microbial quality of Spanish potato omelette and cooked meat samples including pork loin, chicken croquettes, long pork sausage, chicken breast, and meatballs from University restaurants. Microbiological analyses of Spanish potato omelette and cooked meat
BACKGROUND
Non-typhoidal Salmonellae are important causes of bacterial food-borne infection, especially in institutional settings. An outbreak of gastrointestinal infection occurred in a military camp in January 2007, and an epidemiological outbreak investigation was conducted.
METHODS
A survey was
This study investigated flow-through immunocapture (FTI), using the Pathatrix device, followed by plating on xylose lysine desoxycholate (XLD) agar (FTI-XLD) or analysis by real-time PCR (FTI-PCR) for the detection of Salmonella on smooth tomato surfaces and in potato salad and ground beef within 8
The risk for contamination of potatoes and groundwater through subsurface drip irrigation with low quality water was explored in 30 large-scale lysimeters containing repacked coarse sand and sandy loam soils. The human pathogens, Salmonella Senftenberg, Campylobacter jejuni and Escherichia coli
Mutagens detected with Salmonella typhimurium strain TA 98 in the presence of liver S9 mix were extracted from potato slices, but not pure potato starch, after frying in oil. No mutagenic activity was detected using strain TA 100, in the presence or absence of S9 mix with either fried potato slices
Wash water from 66% of 401 samples of fresh fruits and vegetables collected in the marketplace and affected by bacterial soft rot were positive for suspected strains of Salmonella, i.e., black, hydrogen sulfide-positive colonies on Salmonella-Shigella agar incubated for 24 h at 37°C. By comparison,
Although Aspergillus flavus and Aspergillus parasiticus are the main microorganisms of concern in peanuts, due to aflatoxin contamination, several Salmonella outbreaks from this product have been reported over the last ten decades. Thus, it is important to understand the relationship between
We report on an outbreak caused by Salmonella enteritidis phage type 4 (PT4) among 143 participants at a soccer camp in Austria in August 2010. The outbreak affected 34 persons, including 24 epidemiologically related cases and 10 laboratory-confirmed cases. Food-specific cohort analyses revealed
BACKGROUND
In December 2001, an outbreak of foodborne gastroenteritis infected 114 of 161 people who ate at a restaurant in Aracaju, State of Sergipe, Brazil.
METHODS
The epidemiological and microbiological aspects of the outbreak were characterized.
RESULTS
Potato salad made with homemade
