Deciphering Diversity Indices for a Better Understanding of Microbial Communities

Bo-Ra Kim, Jiwon Shin, Robin B. Guevarra et al. · 28 Dec 2017

The past decades have been a golden era during which great tasks were accomplished in the field of microbiology, including food microbiology. In the past, culture-dependent methods have been the primary choice to investigate bacterial diversity. However, using cultureindependent high-throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA genes has greatly facilitated studies exploring the microbial compositions and dynamics…

Advances in Rapid Detection Methods for Foodborne Pathogens

Xihong Zhao, Chii‐Wann Lin, Jun Wang et al. · 28 Mar 2014

Food safety is increasingly becoming an important public health issue, as foodborne diseases present a widespread and growing public health problem in both developed and developing countries. The rapid and precise monitoring and detection of foodborne pathogens are some of the most effective ways to control and prevent human foodborne infections. Traditional microbiological detection and…

A Brief Overview of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Its Plasmid O157

Ji Youn Lim, JangWon Yoon, Carolyn J. Hovde · 28 Jan 2010

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a major foodborne pathogen causing severe disease in humans worldwide. Healthy cattle are a reservoir of E. coli O157:H7, and bovine food products and fresh produce contaminated with bovine waste are the most common sources for disease outbreaks in the United States. E. coli O157:H7 also survives well in the…

Role of Probiotics in Human Gut Microbiome-Associated Diseases

Seon-Kyun Kim, Robin B. Guevarra, You-Tae Kim et al. · 28 Sep 2019

Probiotics, including bacteria and yeast, are live microorganisms that have demonstrated beneficial effects on human health. Recently, probiotic bacteria are constantly being studied and their applications are also being considered in promising adjuvant treatments for various intestinal diseases. Clinical trials and in vivo experiments have extended our current understanding of the important roles that probiotics…
