Emergence of Bacillus Cereus as a dominant organism in Irish retailed powdered infant formulae (PIF) when reconstituted and stored under abuse conditions
(Wiley, 2010-05-25)
One hundred powdered infant formulae (PIF), representative of the 10
leading brands available in Ireland, were subjected to a variety of preparation
and storage conditions. All PIF analyzed immediately after reconstitution
were ...
Full water quality monitoring of a traditional flow-through rainbow trout farm.
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Traditional freshwater rainbow trout farms are still popular in some European countries
such as Poland, France and Ireland. These systems generally operate in flow-through configuration.
The impact such production systems ...
Occurrence and geodatabase mapping of three contaminants of emerging concern in receiving water and at effluent from waste water treatment plants - a first overview of the situation in the Republic of Ireland
(Elsevier, 2018-03)
This constitutes the first study to address occurrence and geodatabase mapping of the anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac (DCL) and the natural (17-beta-estradiol or E2) and synthetic (17-alpha-ethynylestradiol or EE2) ...
Putative virulence factor expression by clinical and food isolates of Bacillus spp.after growth in reconstituted infant milk formulae.
(American Society for Microbiology, 2001-09)
Forty-seven strains representing 14 different Bacillus species isolated from clinical and food samples were grown in reconstituted infant milk formulae (IMF) and subsequently assessed for adherence to, invasion of, and ...
Efficacy of using harmless Bacillus endospores as novel surrogate organisms to indicate the inactivation performance of recalcitrant cryptosporidium parvus oocysts suspended in water using pulsed IV light
(American Society of Parasitologists, 2013-06)
The need to use complex in vitro cell culture, expensive equipment and highly-trained technicians that are available only to specialist laboratories has significantly limited studies assessing the potential of pulsed UV ...
Monitoring, sources, receptors, and control measures for three European Union watch list substances of emerging concern in receiving waters - a 20 year systematic review
(Elsevier, 2017-01)
Pollution of European receiving waters with contaminants of emerging concern (CECs), such as with 17-beta-estradiol (a natural estrogenic hormone, E2), along with pharmaceutically-active compounds diclofenac (an anti-inflammatory ...
Challenges and solutions for addressing critical shortage of supply chain for personal and protective equipment (PPE) arising from Coronavirus disease (COVID19) pandemic - case study from the Republic of Ireland.
(Elsevier, 2020-04-05)
Coronavirus (COVID-19) is highly infectious agent that causes fatal respiratory illnesses, which is of great global public health concern. Currently, there is no effective vaccine for tackling this COVID19 pandemic where ...
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 ...
Longitudinal evaluation of the impact of traditional rainbow trout farming on receiving water quality in Ireland.
(PeerJ, 2018)
In the context of future aquaculture intensification, a longitudinal ten-year evaluation of the current traditional rainbow trout production in Ireland was performed. Publically available and independent data obtained from ...
A review of the perceived barriers within the health belief model on PAP smear screening as a cervical cancer prevention measure.
(AESS, 2013)
Aim: This study reviews the impact of perceived barriers on Pap cervical smear screening within the Health Belief Model (HBM) as an important prevention programme. Background: This research proposes to study perceived ...
