Isolation and characteristics of new phage JK004 and application to control Cronobacter sakazakii on material surfaces and powdered infant formula

Lihan Wang et al.

Summary: JK004 is a novel virulent phage isolated from the native environment of C. sakazakii, known for its tolerance to heat, pH, and osmotic-stress. It shows excellent antibacterial activity against C. sakazakii and biofilms, without containing any known virulence, transduction, or antibiotic resistance genes, indicating its safety for practical applications in food production. The study suggests the potential of JK004 as an effective strategy for controlling C. sakazakii.

Ibai Nafarrate et al.

Summary: This study reported the isolation and characterization of 304 Campylobacter specific bacteriophage isolates from broiler and swine sources. The most promising 59 campylophage candidates were selected based on their lytic activity, and RAPD-PCR technique was found to be effective only for Group II campylophages. Bacteriophage isolates within the same genotype displayed different host ranges, leading to the differentiation of 13 campylophages from Group II and 8 from Group III.

The lipoprotein NlpD in Cronobacter sakazakii responds to acid stress and regulates macrophage resistance and virulence by maintaining membrane integrity Running Title: Identification and characterization of a novel factor involved in acid tolerance and virulence in Cronobacter sakazakii

Xuemeng Ji et al.

Summary: Cronobacter sakazakii, an emerging opportunistic pathogen, is associated with severe foodborne outbreak infections in both premature and full-term infants. This study identified the nlpD gene as an acid-resistance factor in C. sakazakii, playing a vital role in maintaining membrane integrity and virulence. The findings suggest that targeting NlpD could be a potential strategy for drug development against C. sakazakii.
