Evaluation of the Prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus in Chicken Fillets and Its Bio-Control Using Different Seaweed Extracts

Gamal Hamad et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the presence of Staphylococcus aureus in chicken fillets and investigated the effectiveness of lyophilized seaweed extracts in inhibiting its growth. Among the seaweed extracts tested, Halimeda opuntia (HO) showed significant antibacterial activity against S. aureus. HO extract also exhibited antioxidant properties and had a higher safety threshold for consumption. Furthermore, the study demonstrated that the addition of HO extract effectively reduced S. aureus count in chicken fillets and improved sensory attributes of the meat.

Ethnopharmacology, Antimicrobial Potency, and Phytochemistry of African Combretum and Pteleopsis Species (Combretaceae): A Review

Heidi Silen et al.

Summary: Bacterial and fungal resistance to antibiotics is a global concern. African Combretum and Pteleopsis species have the potential to be used as sources for antimicrobial extracts and adjuvants. Combination treatments using these plant species can enhance each other's effects, making them potent antimicrobial agents. This review compiles information on the botany, ethnopharmacology, and appearance of African species of Combretum and Pteleopsis in herbal markets. Additionally, it summarizes the phytochemistry, antimicrobial potency, and combination effects of these extracts and compounds with conventional antibiotics.

Extensive growth and growth boundary model for non-proteolytic Clostridium botulinum - Evaluation and validation with MAP and smoked foods

Ioulia Koukou et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the growth inhibiting effect of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on non-proteolytic Clostridium botulinum and successfully predicted time-to-toxin (TTT) formation in seafood and poultry products using a growth and growth boundary model. This validated model can contribute to product development and innovation, including new sodium reduced foods.

Pre-soaking in Weed Extracts is a Reasonable Approach to Mitigate Fusarium graminearum Infection in Wheat

Sherien E. Sobhy et al.

Summary: Root rot and head blight caused by soil-borne fungi are prevalent diseases that endanger global food security. This study examines the interaction of Fusarium graminearum with weed extracts, showing that priming wheat grains with purslane or chard extracts can enhance growth rate, balance chlorophyll content, and reduce the detrimental effects of F. graminearum infection on wheat seedlings.

Genomic and Phenotypic Characterization of Clostridium botulinum Isolates from an Infant Botulism Case Suggests Adaptation Signatures to the Gut

Francois P. Douillard et al.

Summary: While the clinical aspects of infant botulism and the mode of action of BoNT have been thoroughly investigated, little is known on the pathogenesis and adaptive mechanisms of C. botulinum in the gut. Here, we provide for the first time a comprehensive view on the genomic dynamics and plasticity of C. botulinum over time in a case of infant botulism. The genomic and phenotypic analysis of C. botulinum isolates collected during the disease course offers an unprecedented view of C. botulinum ecology, evolution, and pathogenesis and may be instrumental in developing novel strategies for prevention and treatment of toxicoinfectious botulism.

Antimicrobial Impacts of Microbial Metabolites on the Preservation of Fish and Fishery Products: A Review with Current Knowledge

Nikheel Bhojraj Rathod et al.

Summary: This review provides a recent update on the use of microbial metabolites for preserving seafood. Fish and fishery products are highly prone to spoilage, and controversies related to the use of synthetic preservatives have raised concerns. Microbial metabolites have shown diverse preservation capacities without causing antimicrobial resistance. The demand for minimally processed and naturally preserved fish and fishery products is increasing, making the study of microbial metabolites' preservative effects important.
