Foodborne poisonings and food spoilage may be caused by germination of spores and outgrowth to vegetative bacterial cells during food processing and storage. The spore contamination of food depends on various factors, such as the type of animal feeding, the farming practices, the local microbial ...

Multiple low-Earth orbit and lunar orbit space habitats are being planned by governmental and commercial entities as part of the newly revitalized space industry in the 2020s. Cleaning practices and microbial monitoring to ensure crew safety will likely be based on information garnered from studies ...
The hybrid method performed significantly better for detection of the food spoilage organism Vagococcus in contrast to the other kits (Table 4, 6% vs 0.6 and 1%, P < 0.05). At 18 h of enrichment, the most predominant group for each extraction kit belonged to genera that could not be...
Because food spoilage, both raw and processed, faces many challenges, the use of bacteria from omena can significantly impact food preservation. Additionally, the isolated bacteria do not have a health impact on the consumer, making them a good alternative in food preservation. Most companies have...
Microbes can be present in pasteurized milk via two main routes: (i) survival of pasteurization by bacteria present in raw milk (generally Gram-positive sporeformers), and (ii) post-pasteurization contamination (PPC) of the product. This product spoilage is further complicated when spoilage ...
Furthermore, food spoilage caused by growth of spoilage microorganisms results in huge economic losses (Gram et al., 2002). Antibiotics and chemical preservatives are commonly used to inhibit or kill these pathogens. However, overuse leads to the development of drug-resistant pathogenic bacteria (...
Pseudomonas tolassi is a major cause of mushroom spoilage in Australia. Growth of P. tolassi was greatly reduced by prior colonization of the mushroom beds by P. fluorescens (Healey & Harvey 1989). In cocoa, P. fluorescens isolates from the surface of healthy cocoa were antagonistic to P. ...
(Rm, Mucoromycotina) and a beta-proteobacteriumBurkholderia, which controls asexual proliferation of its host3. Like many other Mucoromycotina, theRmhosts ofBurkholderiathrive as soil saprotrophs. They can cause food spoilage, infect plants4, and act as opportunistic pathogens of immune-...
(Supplementary Fig.S11a–c), connected voxel clusters can be isolated and identified as single-cell objects using 3D connected component labeling75. A conservative size-exclusion filter was applied: small objects with a volume approximately ten times less than the expected cell size were considered ...
