Incorporating ROS in Ice-Making Machines Extends Shipping Shelf Life of Produce, Seafood and Meat Products
M&R farms in Birmingham, Minnesota uses JC 9465 as a primary solution for their packing facility. They have also incorporated JC 9465 into their ice-making machines improving product shelf-life as well as eliminating biofilm. By injecting JC 9465 into their water lines supplying the ice machines, the ORP readings went up from 451 to 632. Once it had been converted to ice, the readings had ...

Chitin/Chitosan as an Immunostimulant - Case Study
Chitin is component of several crustacean and insect carapace. It is an energy source for several species which can degrade chitin through special enzymes. Disease control, profilaxis and eradication are based on the use of vaccines and chemiotherapeutical substances. But there are a number of pathologies that have no known cure. There are for example, the case of Piscirichettsiosis in Chilean ...

Dairy Food Processing - Case Study
Challenges Bluegrass has a zero-tolerance policy when it comes to bacteria in its production facilities. The company has tried several other solutions and processes, but consistently had to spray several times, sometimes with multiple different products, to get full kill rates for Salmonella and Listeria bacteria. The drains were particularly susceptible to contamination and had to be treated ...

Mineral Oxychloride to rescue citrus market in Florida
Since 2019 over 75% of the citrus crops (oranges 75% and grapefruit 85%) has been lost due to an infectious bacterium called huanglongbing (HLB) commonly known as “citrus greening”. Leaves of newly affected trees developed blotchy mottle appearance and the fruit is of no value-it has limited use in juicing operation. As of today, there has not being a commercially available solution ...

The Eddy Jet 2W, a time saver for food microbiologist Kelsey Lamb
Kelsey Lamb is a senior research analyst and laboratory manager of food microbiology in a US university lab. Her main research focuses on food products, normally with either spoilage organisms or with human pathogens that affect different food products. Most of the testing that she carries out is primarily challenge studies or shelf-life studies, inoculating around 180 to 240 plates per ...

Isolation, Identification and Antimicrobial Sensitivity Profile of Salmonella Isolates from Diarrheic Calves in Sebeta Town Dairy Farms, Central Ethiopia
Abstract A cross-sectional study was conducted in dairy farms Sebeta town from November 2018- May 2019 with a purposive sampling method to isolate, identify Salmonella isolates from diarrheic calves. The samples were examined for the presence of Salmonella following the conventional techniques of ISO standard and using OMNILOG bacterial identification system, GEN III microplate for confirmation ...

R2 for mitigating the risk of PEDV, PRRSV and SVA - contaminated feed using an animal challenge model - Case Study
Introduction The porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) epidemic in 2013 - 2014 caused high morbidity and mortality for hog farmers throughout North America. Animal feed was identified at that time as a risk factor and one of the potential vehicles to spread the viral disease. Feed Energy's R2 line of products delivers essential nutrients to the animal through the feed source and has proven to ...

Salmon lice and how to contain them
Over the past few years, the problem of parasitic lice spreading on farmed salmon has been increasing at an alarming rate. We are now seeing situations like last year where lice killed thousands of tonnes of farmed fish, caused skin lesions and secondary infections in millions more, and cost the Scottish industry alone around £300m in trying to control them. Here at Inciner8 we have been ...

A probabilistic QMRA of
Salmonella in direct agricultural reuse of treated municipal wastewaterDeveloping reliable quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) procedures aids in setting recommendations on reuse applications of treated wastewater. In this study, a probabilistic QMRA to determine the risk of Salmonella infections resulting from the consumption of edible crops irrigated with treated wastewater was conducted. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to ...

Antibiotic resistant bacterial profiles of anaerobic swine lagoon effluent
Received for publication November 3, 2008. Although land application of swine (Sus scrofa) manure lagoon effluent is a common and effective method of disposal, the presence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, both pathogenic and commensal can complicate already understood issues associated with its safe disposal. The aim of this study was to assess antibiotic resistance in swine lagoon bacteria ...
