Evidence of lethal and sublethal injury in food‐borne bacterial pathogens exposed to high‐intensity pulsed‐plasma gas discharges.
(Wiley, 2008-01)
Aims: To apply scanning electron microscopy, image analysis and a fluorescent viability stain to assess lethal and sublethal injury in food‐borne bacteria exposed to pulsed‐plasma gas discharges (PPGD).
Methods and ...
Investigation of critical inter-related factors affecting the efficacy of pulsed light for inactivating clinically relevant bacterial pathogens
(Wiley, 2009-08)
Aims: To investigate critical electrical and biological factors governing the efficacy of pulsed light (PL) for the in vitro inactivation of bacteria isolated from the clinical environment. Development of this alternative ...
Pulsed-plasma gas-discharge inactivation of microbial pathogens in chilled poultry wash water.
(International Association for Food Protection, 2007-12)
A pulsed-plasma gas-discharge (PPGD) system was developed for the novel decontamination of chilled poultry washwater. Treatment of poultry wash water in the plasma generation chamber for up to 24 s at 4C reduced Escherichia ...
Studies on the susceptibility of different culture morphotypes of Listeria monocytogenes to uptake and survival in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes.
(Blackwell Publishing, 2009-09)
This study demonstrated that atypical virulent filaments of Listeria monocytogenes
(rough variant type II and designated FR for this study), isolated from clinical
specimens or generated during exposure to pulsed-plasma ...
