Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef.
Sabine Delannoy,Byron D. Chaves,Sarah A. Ison,Hattie E. Webb,Lothar Beutin,José Delaval,Isabelle Billet,Patrick Fach +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that screening for stx, eae, espK, and espV, in association with the CRISPRO26:H11 marker is a better approach to narrow down the EHEC screening step in beef enrichments, and the number of potentially positive samples was reduced by 48.88% by means of this alternative strategy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial Resistance: A Global Emerging Threat to Public Health Systems
TL;DR: An extensive overview of the epidemiology of AMR is presented, with a focus on the link between food producing-animals and humans and on the legal framework and policies currently implemented at the EU level and globally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity and applications of Bacillus bacteriocins
TL;DR: The present review provides a general overview of Bacillus bacteriocins, including primary structure, biochemical and genetic characterization, classification and potential applications in food preservation as natural preservatives and in human and animal health as alternatives to conventional antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Animal contact as a source of human non-typhoidal salmonellosis
TL;DR: The epidemiology and serotype distribution of Salmonella in a variety of host species is described and the current understanding of the public health risks associated with different types of contacts between humans and animals in public, professional or private settings is reviewed.

Journal ArticleDOI
Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli
James P. Nataro,James B. Kaper +1 more
TL;DR: The current level of understanding of the pathogenesis of the diarrheagenic E. coli strains is discussed and how their pathogenic schemes underlie the clinical manifestations, diagnostic approach, and epidemiologic investigation of these important pathogens are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel proteinaceous infectious particles cause scrapie
TL;DR: A new term "prion" is proposed to denote a small proteinaceous infectious particle which is resistant to inactivation by most procedures that modify nucleic acids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Global mortality, disability, and the contribution of risk factors: Global Burden of Disease Study
TL;DR: The three leading contributors to the burden of disease are communicable and perinatal disorders affecting children, and the substantial burdens of neuropsychiatric disorders and injuries are under-recognised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiologic Research: Principles and Quantitative Methods.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of the main issues in epidemiology research and propose a method for controlling extraneous factors in the context of epidemiological studies, using Logistic Regression with Interaction, Effect Modification, and synergy.
