Effects of red wine and grape juice against foodborne pathogens and probiotics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
survived exposure to up to 80% of each red wine, even though the decrease in numbers was significant from the initial 107 CFU/mL. The pathogens were inhibited by up to 50-60% red grape juice. This indicates that the alcohol present in wines is not the only...
Green synthesis approach and applications of engineered nanomaterials in food safety
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nowadays, food safety has received more awareness because of increasing foodborne illness outbreaks around the world that involved biological and chemical substances. Therefore...
Development of a novel antimicrobial food packaging film containing silver nanoparticles
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were incorporated into bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) by a reduction (R) and UV-assisted (UV) methods with the addition of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to prepare an environmentally ...
Development of antimicrobial composite materials for food packaging applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Due to increasing environmental concerns regarding plastic waste, the development of composite film materials from biodegradable polymers and natural food additives is gaining more attention. Over the last few decades, the ...
Development of concentration and detection methods for the detection of extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producing bacterial pathogens in foods
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Currently used conventional methods for detection of bacteria in foods are time consuming and labor intensive. Therefore, there is an increasing demand for a robust, rapid, and cost-effective method for the detection of ...
Photocatalytic antimicrobial coating for food contact surfaces
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Food-borne diseases cause approximately 9.4 million illnesses each year in the United States, while globally, these diseases cause approximately 600 million cases of illness and [approximately] 420,000 deaths. Food contact ...
