Genetic relatedness of Staphylococcus aureus isolates within food outbreaks by single nucleotide polymorphisms.
this study, we propose a SNP cut-off by taking into account the mutation rate and the evolution time of this pathogen in food. Through in vitro microevolution, we determined the mutation rate of three S. ...
Development of a shotgun metagenomics workflow for the comprehensive surveillance of biological impurities in vitamin-containing food products
with public health concerns were recently reported in similar fermentation-derived products, including pathogens, allergens and genetically modified microorganisms (GMM s) carrying antimicrobial ...
BSFM 2024- Reported food-borne outbreaks in Belgium, 2023
In 2023, a total of 722 outbreaks were reported. The most common causative agents were norovirus, pathogenic E. coli (STEC), Bacillus cereus and Salmonella, responsible for 15, 14, 7 and 7 food-borne ...
An interlaboratory proficiency test using metagenomic sequencing as a diagnostic tool for the detection of RNA viruses in swine fecal material.
types. The suitability of experimental design to a given pathogen/sample matrix combination, quality assurance, interpretation, and follow-up investigation remain critical factors for the diagnostic ...
FT-IR spectroscopy as a rapid method for Salmonella spp. typing
Brussels, Belgium (2024) Keywords: foodborne outbreak FT-IR spectroscopy Abstract: Introduction Salmonella is a major foodborne pathogen, leading cause of non-typhoidal human salmonellosis. Eggs and egg ...
Retrospective surveillance of viable Bacillus cereus group contaminations in commercial food and feed vitamin B2 products sold on the Belgian market using whole-genome sequencing
This study reveals that potentially pathogenic and drug-resistant B. cereus s.l. can be present in food and feed vitamin B2 additives that are commercially available, and that more research is warranted ...
Towards facilitated interpretation of shotgun metagenomics long-read sequencing data analyzed with KMA for the detection of bacterial pathogens and their antimicrobial resistance genes
Publication Type: Peer reviewed scientific article Authors: Mathieu Gand; Navickaite, Indre; Bartsch, Lee-Julia; Grützke, Josephine; Overballe-Petersen, Søren; Rasmussen, Astrid; Otani, Saria; Michelacci, Valeria; Matamoros, Bosco Rodríguez; González-Zorn ...
Hazard characterization of Alternaria toxins to identify data gaps and improve risk assessment for human health.
Fungi of the genus Alternaria are ubiquitous plant pathogens and saprophytes which are able to grow under varying temperature and moisture conditions as well as on a large range of substrates. A spectrum ...
BSFM 2023- L. monocytogenes in Plant-Based Foods: insights from of a recent foodborne outbreak linked to vegan alternative to cheese
the prevalence of this pathogen in plant-based foods and its survival throughout the plant-based food supply chain. Health Topics: Listeria monocytogenes Listeria monocytogenes Listeria monocytogenes ...
Strain-level characterization without culture enrichment? Easing and accelerating outbreak investigation using shotgun metagenomics facilitated with nanopore adaptive sampling
analysing the DNA of the sample, it can identify the presence of various pathogens to the strain level. Moreover, adaptive sampling is a new tool proposed during nanopore sequencing to target certain DNA ...
