Antimicrobial activity of bioactive starch packaging films against Listeria monocytogenes and reconstituted meat microbiota on ham
Download2019-01-01
Zhao, Yujia, Teixeira, Januana S., Saldaña, Marleny D.A., Gänzle, Michael G.
Contamination with spoilage organisms and Listeria monocytogenes are major concerns for quality and safety of cooked ready-to-eat (RTE) meat products. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate the use of antimicrobial starch packaging films to control competitive microbiota and L....

Functional characterization of sucrose phosphorylase and scrR, a regulator of sucrose metabolism in Lactobacillus reuteri

Teixeira, Januana S., Abdi, Reihaneh, Su, Marcia Shu-Wei, Schwab, Clarissa, Gänzle, Michael G.
Lactobacillus reuteri harbours alternative enzymes for sucrose metabolism, sucrose phosphorylase, fructansucrases, and glucansucrases. Sucrose phosphorylase and fructansucrases additionally contribute to raffinose metabolism. Glucansucrases and fructansucrases produce exopolysaccharides as...

Teixeira, Januana S., Seeras, Arisha, Sanchez-Maldonado, Alma Fernanda, Zhang, Chonggang, Su, Marcia Shu-Wei, Gänzle, Michael G.
This study aimed to determine whether glutamine deamidation improves acid resistance of Lactobacillus reuteri, and to assess whether arginine, glutamine, and glutamate-mediated acid resistance are redundant or complementary mechanisms of acid resistance. Three putative glutaminase genes, gls1,...

Intestinal microbiota mediate toxicity of irinotecan (CPT-11) cancer therapies and cause systemic infection after CPT-11-induced loss of barrier function. The intestinal microbiota and their functions are thus potential targets for treatment to mitigate CPT-11 toxicity. However, microbiota...

Prophylactic ciprofloxacin treatment prevented high mortality, and modified systemic and intestinal immune function in tumour-bearing rats receiving dose-intensive CPT-11 chemotherapy
Download2009
Baracos, Vickie E., Xue, Hongyu, Sawyer, Michael B., Field, Catherine J
Infectious complications are a major cause of morbidity and mortality from dose-intensive cancer chemotherapy. In spite of the importance of intestinal bacteria translocation in these infections, information about the effect of high-dose chemotherapy on gut mucosal immunity is minimal. We studied...

Single and combined supplementation of glutamine and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on host tolerance and tumour response to 7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin (CPT-11)/5-fluorouracil chemotherapy in rats bearing Ward colon tumour

Xue, Hongyu, Sawyer, Michael B., Le Roy, Severine, Dieleman, Levinus A., Baracos, Vickie E., Field, Catherine J.
Prior reports suggest that during irinotecan (7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin; CPT-11) chemotherapy in laboratory rats, the anti-tumour efficacy and diarrhoea toxicity could be modulated by n-3 PUFA and glutamine, respectively. We further examined how these two...

The effect of growth temperature, process temperature, and sodium chloride on the high pressure inactivation of Listeria monocytogenes on ham
Download2016-01-01
Teixeira, Januana S., Maier, Maximilian B., Miller, Petr, Gänzle, Michael G., McMullen, Lynn M.
This study investigated the effect of growth temperature (8–32 °C), process temperature (−17 to 32 °C), and sodium chloride concentration (0–3 %) on the lethality of pressure to Listeria monocytogenes. Pressure treatments were performed using a 5-strain cocktail of L. monocytogenes. Cultures...
