Journal ArticleDOI
Purification, characterization and antimicrobial spectrum of a bacteriocin produced by Pediococcus acidilactici.
TL;DR: Pediocin AcH exhibited inhibition against several food spoilage bacteria and foodborne pathogens including Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium perfringens and Listeria monocytogenes and acted very rapidly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficacy of Chlorine Dioxide, Ozone, and Thyme Essential Oil or a Sequential Washing in Killing Escherichia coli O157:H7 on Lettuce and Baby Carrots
TL;DR: In this paper, the efficacy of these sanitizers was evaluated, alone or through their sequential washing to achieve a 3 or more log reduction of mixed strains of E. coli O157:H7 on shredded lettuce and baby carrots.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mode of action of pediocin AcH from Pediococcus acidilactici H on sensitive bacterial strains
TL;DR: The peptide, pediocin AcH, from Pediococcus acidilactici H binds to the cell surface of Lactobacillus plantarum NCDO 955, its resistant mutant and several other sensitive and resistant Gram-positive bacteria but not to Gram-negative bacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacteria-mediated delivery of nanoparticles and cargo into cells
Demir Akin,Jennifer Sturgis,Kathy Ragheb,Debby Sherman,Kristin M. Burkholder,J. Paul Robinson,Arun K. Bhunia,Sulma I. Mohammed,Rashid Bashir +8 more
TL;DR: The simultaneous use of nanoparticles and bacteria to deliver DNA-based model drug molecules in vivo and in vitro and this new approach may be used to deliver different types of cargo into live animals and a variety of cells in culture without the need for complicated genetic manipulations.
Patent
Biosensor and related method
TL;DR: In this paper, a micro-scale biosensor for use in the detection of target biological substances including molecules and cells is presented, which is a microfluidic system with integrated electronics, inlet-outlet ports and interface schemes, high sensitivity detection of pathogen specificity, and processing of biological materials at semiconductor interfaces.
