Food industry is highly affected by COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, the preventive measures and precautions to be taken to reduce the risk of transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and incidence of infection are necessary. This review integrate and analyze the available information and data on precautions of corona virus in food industry in pursuance of informing the public and the scientific community, as well as creating collective knowledge among food industry establishment and raising awareness of preventive measures during COVID-19 pandemic.

Food safety hazards of crustaceans arising from chemical and biological contaminants, their control measures and detection me

Four methods, namely PFGE.wgMLST, cgMLST, and wgSNP were appropriate for bacterial typing in Salmonella entrica serotype Enteritidis (SE)-related outbreak investigation. However, wgSNP can assign 12 SE strains from the first outbreak to one cluster and assign two strains from the second outbreak to another cluster, while PFGE, wgMLST, cgMLST did not successfully distinguish the SE strains from different outbreaks. Thus, the SNP-based phylogenetic analysis might be a viable method for differentiating SE strains at the outbreak level.

In order to evaluate the antifungal capacity of two commercial preparations made both with benzalkonium chloride alone and with the addition of glutaraldehyde at different concentrations and contact times, it was performed the suspension-neutralization test employing spores of five strains of both Aspergillus section Nigri and Cladosporium cladosporioides, all isolated from food industries environments.Modelling of inactivation kinetic data and determination of 4D values was performed by counting of CFU/ml.

Effect of combining plasma bubbling and low-pressure plasma on cow milk.

Mixture of phenyllactic acid and pediocin with EDTA inhibited E. coli growth, and mixture of phenyllactic acid, pediocin, nisin, and EDTA inhibited B. cereus growth. Phenyllactic acid exhibited better inhibitory effect on P. roqueforti than on A. neoniger.

The antibiotic resistance of the dominant bacteria in the farm BTM was determined. Multidrug-resistant bacteria were detected. In addition, the relationship of BTSCC values with some physicochemical and microbiological properties was evaluated.

An 77.1% of the mcr-1 E. coli which were isolated from sheep and goats milk resisted one or more antimicrobial classes, 37.7% resisted three or more antimicrobial classes and 6.6% showed resistance to seven one or more antimicrobials.

The developed nanocomposite exhibited great antimicrobial activity against Salmonella typhi PTCC 1609. The release profiles for TiO₂ in two simulants of ethanol and acetic acid indicated a non-Fickian release. SSPS/TiO₂ nanocomposites degraded easily. Oral administration of TiO₂ increased malondialdehyde (p < .001) concentration in the liver tissue.

In this study, we developed a mathematical model to describe the fate of Bacillus cereus in Saengsik, a powdered ready-to-eat food with reduced moisture content, and to estimate the probability of B. cereus infection from Saengsik consumption, using quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA).
