Food safety can be improved by various antimicrobial applications through the effective inhibition of microorganisms for certain periods by controlled release. Antimicrobials in powders and films were studied to investigate their activities and properties. Nisin (Nisaplin®) (200…
Our earlier research showed that Listeria monocytogenes changes its cellular morphology from bacilli to cocci and increases its resistance to heat and high pressure during the transition to the long-term-survival (LTS) phase. The goal of this thesis project was to understand fac…
Objective of this study was to evaluate effect of UV-C radiation (0, 1.16 and 3.21 kJ/cm2), pomegranate (Punica granatum) seed essential oil (PGEO) and lemon (Citrus lemonum) plant essential oil (CLEO) on decontamination of Candida albicans, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcu…
"Biofilms represent the natural living style of microbial communities and plays a pivotal role in biogeochemical cycles and natural attenuation. Biofilms can be engineered for biodegradation and biotransformation of organic and inorganic contaminants, for both in situ bioremedia…
