Salmonella and Campylobacter are frequent colonizers of the intestinal tracts of poultry and have often been associated with human foodborne illness. The entry, transmission, and prevalence of both pathogens have been extensively studied in chickens but little information is available for turkeys. This ...

Biophysical factors, such as environmental conditions, can affect the population dynamics of zoonotic pathogens and their host animals, thus impacting the risk of pathogen transmission (Fig. 4). Research examining the relationship between these factors and pathogen ecology may aid in reducing public hea...
Applications of phylogeography are broad, and in the context of pathogens include the reconstruction of transmission histories and the origin and emergence of outbreaks. Phylogeographic inference based on bottom-up population genetics models is computationally expensive, and as a result faster alternatives ...
To date, transmission routes of microorganisms during meat processing have been difficult to track and monitor and therefore remained largely elusive7,8. The main reason for this is that the meat industry is still relying on ISO reference methods applying microbiological techniques to monitor hygiene ...

(Hemidactylus frenatus) were challenged with a single dose ofE. lacertideformusinoculum either by mouth, application to mucosal abrasion or skin laceration, subcutaneous injection, coelomic injection, or via co-housing with an infected gecko. Five healthy geckos acted as controls. Each transmission ...
Most previous studies attempting to prove the phenomenon of mother-to-infant microbiota transmission were observational, performed only at genus/species-level resolution, and relied entirely on non-culture-based methodologies, impeding interpretation. Th
In the case of naturally ventilated spaces, the risks can be higher if the incoming air is not filtered. While the nature of infection can vary depending on the microorganism and dosage, it is important to understand the pathways of transmission to limit the inter-unit spread of pathogens as...
SARS-CoV-2 transmission modes Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 3.1. Origin and transmission of Sars-CoV-2 Acute respiratory disease caused by novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, is a β-coronavirus with a nonsegmented genome consisting of positive-sense, single-stranded RNA enclosed within...
