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 ...
Inclusion of older adults in the research and design of digital technology.
(MDPI, 2019-10-02)
Digital technology holds a promise to improve older adults’ well-being and promote ageing
in place. However, there seems to be a discrepancy between digital technologies that are developed
and what older adults actually ...
To examine the factors affecting health and wellbeing of centenarians living in Ireland
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2018-04-24)
According to the United Nations the global number of centenarians is set to continue to climb, expecting to reach more than 25 million people in 2100 [1]. As centenarians live at the furthest extremity of age, they have ...

Can healthy motivated British adults achieve the revised UK government fibre recommendations of 30 g per day? Results from a preliminary study
(Sage, 2018-08-30)
Background: UK Government recommendations for dietary fibre intakes have recently increased 5 to 30 g/day, well below current population intakes. This study aimed to explore whether this target 6 could be achieved and the ...
Light inactivation of food-related pathogenic bacteria using a pulsed power source.
(Wiley, 1998-06)
The effects of high intensity light emissions, produced by a novel pulsed power energization technique (PPET), on the survival of bacterial populations of verocytotoxigenic Escherichia coli (serotype 0157:H7) and Listeria ...
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 ...
