Spring 2020
On a perfect hydrogen-terminated Si(100)-2x1 surface, each surface silicon atom is capped with exactly one atom of hydrogen. When one of the capping hydrogen atoms is removed, the now unsatisfied orbital of the underlying silicon atom is exposed at that site. This site is better known as a...

High Intensity Pulsed Light Emitting Diode (LED) Treatment for Simultaneous Salmonella Inactivation and Drying of Wheat Flour and Pet Food
DownloadSpring 2020
According to the world health organization, almost 600 million people, or 1 in 10 people suffer from foodborne illnesses globally. Food industry uses several intervention methods to produce safe food products however, cases of food recalls and outbreaks due to microbial pathogens keep increasing...

In silico and empirical analyses of the evolution and activity of diverse AB5 toxins found within the Salmonella genus
DownloadFall 2023
Bacterial AB5 toxins are secreted protein complexes composed of an enzymatic A subunit that disrupts host cell functions and a pentameric B subunit that facilitates cellular entry of the toxin by binding to specific cell surface receptors. AB5 toxins are widely recognized for their roles in the...

Inactivation of Salmonella spp. in wheat flour by 395 nm pulsed light emitting diode (LED) treatment and the related functional and structural changes of gluten
Download2020-01-01
Du, Lihui, Prasad, Amritha Jaya, Gänzle, Michael G., Roopesh, M.S.
Salmonella spp. is one of the top foodborne pathogens associated with low-moisture foods and they exhibit significant resistance to conventional thermal treatments. UV light pulses emitted from light emitting diode (LED) has shown antimicrobial potential in high-moisture foods and water. However,...

Influence of water activity on thermal resistance of microorganisms in low-moisture foods: A review
Download2016-01-01
Syamaladevi, Roopesh M., Tang, Juming, Villa-Rojas, Rossana, Sablani, Shyam S., Carter, Brady, Campbell, Gaylon
A number of recent outbreaks related to pathogens in low-moisture foods have created urgency for studies to understand the possible causes and identify potential treatments to improve low-moisture food safety. Thermal processing holds the potential to eliminate pathogens such as Salmonella in...

Influence of Water Activity on Thermal Resistance of Salmonella enterica and Quality changes in Low-moisture Foods
DownloadSpring 2019
Low-moisture foods (with aw < 0.85) including pet foods and black pepper powder have been associated with major recalls due to contamination by Salmonella spp. Increased thermal resistance and prolonged survival at low-moisture conditions are major challenges to achieve effective inactivation of...

Interfacing Silicon-Based Quantum Dots with Proteins for Biological and Sensing Applications
DownloadFall 2020
This dissertation presents the preparation of functional bioinorganic hybrids from silicon-based quantum dots (SiQDs) and enzymes and the use of SiQDs and green fluorescent protein as ratiometric photoluminescent sensors for nerve agents. Chapter 2 discusses the preparation of water-soluble...

Lethality of high-pressure carbon dioxide on Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli, Salmonella and surrogate organisms on beef jerky
Download2020-05-16
Schultze, Danielle M., Couto, Ricardo, Temelli, Feral, McMullen, Lynn M., Gänzle, Michael G.
Low water activity (aW) foods permit the survival of low-infectious dose pathogens including Escherichia coli and Salmonella. Desiccation of non-heat resistant E. coli and Salmonella enterica increases their heat resistance; therefore, alternative methods are necessary to ensure the safety of low...

Microbiological quality of organic vegetables produced in soil treated with different types of manure and mineral fertilizer
Download2006
Maia, Carla M., Carvalho, Isabel D., Serafini, Álvaro B., da Silva, Natan F., André, Maria C. P. B., Machado, Débora C.
An attempt was made to evaluate microbiological quality of horticultural crops grown organically. Three species of vegetables were used, lettuce (Lactuva sativa), radish (Raphanus sativus) and spinach (Tetragonia expansa), grown organically, in fertile soil. Six different treatments were applied:...
