This study utilized Escherichia coli bacteriophage MS2 as a surrogate to evaluate the survival of enteric viruses in oyster meat. The phage was propagated its host, coli, spiked into meat at concentration 8.6 x10¹⁰ PFU/ml (10.93 log CFU/ml) and stored under chilled conditions on ice -20°C (frozen storage). Phage titres were measured using soft agar overlay method, with sampling conducted every second day for ice-stored fifth frozen-stored analysis demonstrated that phages by extension viruses, could persist up 10 days counts reaching 4.78 PFU/g. In frozen storage, survived 35 days, exhibiting 4 reduction viral counts. These results highlight significant during both storage conditions.

Consumption of raw or undercooked wild boar (WB) meat is considered an important risk factor for hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in humans. The possibility HEV contamination during the slaughtering practices may pose additional risk. Based on these assumptions, we evaluated WB hunted Umbria (central Italy) 2022–2023 hunting season by real-time RT-PCR. Herein, show that 10.8% livers from slaughtered were positive RNA, thus providing estimate region. Then, evaluating paired liver–muscle samples both HEV-positive and HEV-negative animals, found evidence muscle 33% 14% cases, respectively. This first report detection Umbria, Italian region with diffuse consumption. provided our study underscores importance adopting good hygienic processing stages carcasses to significantly reduce posed final consumer.

Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) is a gastrointestinal tract disease often caused by consuming food or water contaminated bacteria, viruses, parasites, that can lead to severe symptoms requiring hospitalization. A retrospective study on patients admitted for AGE between 2021 and 2023 at the Pediatrics Infectious Diseases Departments of Lecce Hospital was conducted. Demographic characteristics, year month admission, length hospital stay, etiological agents, co-infections, blood chemistry data were collected.

The European Union (EU) regulations mandate 10% of all food packaging to be reusable by 2030. United States (U.S.) exporters specialty crops face new challenges in ensuring microbiological safety using packaging. A novel antimicrobial formulation consisting ammonium carboxylate salt capric acid and L-arginine (GS-2) was recently developed as a spray coating chemical for materials. In this study, we evaluated the efficacy GS-2 against microbial strains representing three foodborne bacterial pathogens (
