Controlling Listeria monocytogenes contamination in fresh goat milk cheeses: Dy...
Bonilla-Luque, Olga María; Possas, Arícia; Gonzales-Barron, Ursula; Cadavez, Vasco; Ezzaky, Youssef; Hussein, Abdelraheem; Valero, AntonioPredictive models applied for artisanal fresh goat cheeses are invaluable tools for rapid decision-making in quality and safety management. Listeria monocytogenes is a common foodborne pathogen associated with recent safety alerts in ready-to-eat (RTE) products in Andalucia. Managing artisanal production variables, such as storage conditions and final product features (pH or water activity [aw]) might be crucia...

Bonilla-Luque, Olga María; Silva, Beatriz Nunes; Ezzaky, Youssef; Possas, Arícia; Achemchem, Fouad; Cadavez, Vasco; Gonzales-Barron, UrsulaBiopreservation strategies such as the use of Mediterranean plant extracts to ensure food safety are promising to deal with the emergence of antimicrobial resistances and the overreliance on food chemical additives. In the last few decades, antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) for evaluating the in vitro antibacterial potential of plant extracts against the most relevant foodborne pathogens has been widel...

Ezzaky, Youssef; Elmoslih, Abdelkhaleq; Silva, Beatriz Nunes; Bonilla‐Luque, Olga M.; Possas, Arícia; Valero, Antonio; Cadavez, VascoGenetic analysis of the honey bee spermathecal content can be particularly useful to provide an estimate of the genetic diversity and purity of the surrounding populations. Here we compared the concentration and quality of DNA extracted from queen spermatheca using four commercial kits to determine the best method to obtain DNA suitable for single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping by next-generation sequencing...

Ezzaky, Youssef; Elmoslih, Abdelkhaleq; Silva, Beatriz Nunes; Bonilla‐Luque, Olga María; Possas, Arícia; Valero, Antonio; Cadavez, VascoEssential oils (EOs) are a class of natural products that exhibit potent antimicrobial properties against a broad spectrum of bacteria. Inhibition diameters (IDs) and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) are the typical measures of antimicrobial activity for extracts and EOs obtained from Cinnamomum, Salvia, and Mentha species. This study used a meta-analytical regression analysis to investigate the correla...

Silva, Beatriz Nunes; Bonilla-Luque, Olga María; Possas, Arícia; Ezzaky, Youssef; Elmoslih, Abdelkhaleq; Teixeira, José António; Achemchem, FouadDiffusion methods, including agar disk-diffusion and agar well-diffusion, as well as dilution methods such as broth and agar dilution, are frequently employed to evaluate the antimicrobial capacity of extracts and essential oils (EOs) derived from Origanum L., Syzygium aromaticum, and Citrus L. The results are reported as inhibition diameters (IDs) and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs), respectively. In ...

Resistome and virulome diversity of foodborne pathogens isolated from artisanal...
Pasquali, Frédérique; Gambi, Lucia; Cesare, Alessandra; Crippa, Cecilia; Cadavez, Vasco; Gonzales-Barron, Ursula; Valero, Antonio; Achemchem, FouadThe aim of the present study was to investigate the resistome and virulome diversity of 43 isolates of Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella enterica and S. aureus collected from artisanal fermented meat and dairy products and their production environments in Portugal, Spain, Italy and Morocco. After DNA extraction, genomes were sequenced, and de novo assembled. Genetic relationships among genomes were investigate...

Bonilla-Luque, Olga María; Possas, Arícia; Silva, Beatriz Nunes; Cadavez, Vasco; Valero, Antonio; Gonzales-Barron, UrsulaLa contaminación microbiana en alimentos durante sus diferentes etapas de producción supone un reto para las industrias alimentarias. Como pilar importante en seguridad alimentaria, la preservación de alimentos se ha llevado a cabo mediante diferentes conservantes sintéticos tradicionales. Sin embargo, el interés en aceites esenciales como biopreservativos es recientemente visible, dada su mayor sostenibilidad ...
