A significant increase in the prevalence of campylobacteriosis cases has been observed over the past years. Campylobacter has emerged as the leading cause of bacterial foodborne disease worldwide with a significant impact on human health and an associated economic burdens. Campylobacteriosis human cases have been generally correlated with the handling, preparation and consumption of poultry. In 2017, the European Commission regulation has amended Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005 on the hygiene of foodstuffs as regards Campylobacter on broiler carcasses stating a limit of 1000 cfu/g. Campylobacter is also present in other farm animals and is frequently found on a range of foodstuffs due to cross ...

Bio-Based Antimicrobial Agents to Improve Agricultural and Food Safety provides a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in bio-based antimicrobial agents used to enhance food safety and agricultural production. This book highlights natural alternatives to chemical preservatives, focusing on surfactin, bacillomycin, fengycin, bacteriocins, and plant-based antimicrobials. It explores their applications in controlling microbial contamination, improving crop health, and extending food shelf life. Key topics include biopreservation techniques, biological control of pathogens, and sustainable agricultural practices. With contributions from experts worldwide, this book is an essential resource for researchers, biotechnologists, microbiologists, food scientists, and industry professionals aiming to understand modern bio-safe methods for food preservation and crop protection.

The thoughtless person playing with penicillin treatment is morally responsible for the death of the man who succumbs to infection with the penicillin-resistant organism.” As Alexander Fleming predicted already in 1945 bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics. From time to time we are bombarded with news of infections and deaths caused by antibiotic resistant and multiple drug resistant superbugs. This increase of resistance towards commonly used antibiotics due to decades of use, misuse and abuse of antibiotics, is today a global health concern. Research investments on development of new antimicrobials that can fight antimicrobial resistant microorganisms are scarce yet some new anti...
From an August 1991 workshop in Berlin under the auspices of the European Molecular Biology Organization, 19 papers focus on two major topics: the molecular biology of pathogenic fungi, including a session on new molecular tools available for studying fungal systems; and gene expression in fungal systems, including the complex regulation of metabolic pathways, applied aspects of expression signals, and the regulation of development, mating, and reproduction.
