POTENTIAL LOW TOXICITY CROSSLINKER FOR PROTEIN-BASED NANOPARTICLES
(2015)
Crosslinking is an essential procedure for maintaining the integrity of protein-based nanoparticles, but the application of toxic crosslinkers is usually undesirable. In this study, a tyrosinase-aided crosslinking procedure ...
Genomic analysis of bacteriophages from non-O157 shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli
(2015)
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is the fiercest pathotype among all diarrheic E. coli. STEC O157:H7 has been a predominant serotype for STEC in the United States. However, an increasing number of cases of ...

Toxoplasma gondii is one of the leading foodborne pathogens in the United States. The main modes of T. gondii transmission are ingestion of food, soil or water contaminated with oocysts, or eating raw or undercooked meat ...
FOOD PROTEIN-BASED NANOPARTICLES AS BIOAVAILABILITY ENHANCING ENCAPSULANTS
(2015)
Proteins are attractive bioavailability enhancers for poorly absorbed nutraceuticals or drugs, owing to their natural abundance, amphiphilic nature, and desirable biocompatibility. This study systematically investigated ...

Investigating Metrics Proposed to Prevent the Harvest of Leafy Green Crops Contaminated by Floodwater
(2015)
Pathogens can be transported by water through soil to contaminate distant crops. The California LGMA states that leafy green crops within 30ft of flooded soil should be destroyed due to potential contamination. Previously ...
