Evaluation of Mehlich-3 for determination of cation exchange capacity in Kansas soils

Edmond Bryan Rutter et al.

Summary: Soil testing laboratories in the United States have implemented the Mehlich-3 extraction method for phosphorus and other nutrients. Results from this study suggest that while M3 shows strong correlation with AA for certain nutrients, such as K, Mg, and Na, it may lead to overestimation of extractable Ca and CEC in soils with high pH levels.

Genetic characteristics, antimicrobial resistance, and prevalence of Arcobacter spp. isolated from various sources in Shenzhen, China

Yanping Ma et al.

Summary: Arcobacter spp. is a globally emerging zoonotic and foodborne pathogen. This study investigated the prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of Arcobacter spp. in China. The results showed that Arcobacter spp. was detected in both food and human feces, with chicken meat having the highest prevalence. Some strains showed resistance to multiple antibiotics. The presence of virulence factors suggests a potential risk to human health.

Prevalence and antibacterial susceptibilities of Arcobacter spp. and Campylobacter spp. from fresh vegetables

Secil Abay et al.

Summary: This study aimed to isolate and identify Arcobacter spp. and Campylobacter spp. from fresh vegetables sold in the Kayseri province. The findings showed a high prevalence of Arcobacter contamination in vegetables, with some samples showing mixed contamination with multiple species and/or genotypes. A small percentage of the Arcobacter isolates displayed resistance to certain antibiotics. Therefore, the consumption of raw vegetables may pose a risk to public health.

Summary: This study conducted a survey on Listeria diversity on a farm in New York, revealing a significant presence of Listeria and L. monocytogenes in water sources and nearby animal feces. Characterization through PFGE showed persistence and reintroduction of Listeria subtypes, as well as diversity among different samples.

A New Method for Detection of Arcobacter butzleri, Arcobacter cryaerophilus, and Arcobacter skirrowii Using a Novel Chromogenic Agar

Paul T. Nguyen et al.

Summary: The study developed a novel protocol to detect three emerging foodborne pathogens species of Arcobacter using a selective enrichment broth and chromogenic plating medium. The optimal growth conditions for Arcobacter species using the NRJ Arcobacter detection system were found to be aerobic incubation at 30°C. The NRJ-B and NRJ-M supported good growth of Arcobacter species while effectively suppressing the growth of non-Arcobacter strains.

Prevalence, antimicrobial susceptibility and virulence gene profiles of Arcobacter species isolated from human stool samples, foods of animal origin, ready-to-eat salad mixes and environmental water

Dainius Uljanovas et al.

Summary: This study in Lithuania found that Arcobacter strains in food products and environmental water carry multiple putative virulence genes, with A. butzleri being the most common species. Fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides were more effective against Arcobacter. However, further research is needed to determine the pathogenic mechanisms and factors facilitating the spread of Arcobacter infections.

Cascading effects of composts and cover crops on soil chemistry, bacterial communities and the survival of foodborne pathogens

N. Devarajan et al.

Summary: The study suggests that organic amendments such as composts and cover crops can increase soil microbial diversity and activity, suppress the survival of foodborne pathogens, and contribute to healthy soil. Evaluation of a 27-year experiment showed that the composition of bacterial communities in organic soils can impact the survival of pathogens in soils.
