Ecological Dynamics of Microbiomes in Food Processing Facilities: Pathways to Improved Sanitation
DownloadFall 2024
Food processing environments serve as complex niches for bacterial colonization, adaption, persistence and dispersal, which subsequently shapes the microbial composition and diversity. This Ph.D. dissertation investigated the impact of biofilm formation, bacterial communication and cooperation on...
