Relative Resistance of the Red, Dry, and Rough (RDAR) and Smooth and White (SAW) Morphotypes expressed by Salmonella to a steam blanching treatment

Creator:: Callahan, Selena and Waite-Cusic, Joy
Abstract:: The acquired ability of Salmonella to express varying morphotypes when placed in nutrient-limited conditions is hypothesized to predict increased resistance to food processing interventions. Two of the morphotypes expressed by Salmonella are Red, Dry and Rough (RDAR) and Smooth and White (SAW). Increased resistance is predicted for the RDAR morphotype...

Validation of Baking to Reduce Coliform Counts and Salmonella in Cookie Dough

Creator:: Wilson, Julia M.
Abstract:: This study aimed to determine the efficacy of baking to reduce bacterial populations (an unknown contaminant or Salmonella) in cookie dough. Baking conditions (time and temperature parameters) were selected based on conditions commonly used in industry. The first study (Chapter 2), “Baking as Validation for Control of Coliform Counts in...

An Exploration of Cheese Safety Parameters and Aging as Mitigation Strategy for Foodborne Pathogens in Cheese

Creator:: Riesgaard, Brandon
Abstract:: Pasteurization is an effective method of reducing risks associated with foodborne pathogens in raw milk. Cheese made from raw milk has a higher potential to harbor harmful bacterial pathogens. However, some cheesemakers prefer to use unpasteurized milk to preserve the natural microflora present in the raw milk and to prevent...

Investigating Potential Environmental Sources for Coliforms in Cheddar Cheese Production

Creator:: Selover, Brandon J.
Abstract:: The production of Cheddar cheese is a complex process with multiple potential sources of undesirable bacteria, including those that have negative impacts on product quality (spoilage organisms) and those that are used to evaluate sanitary conditions in the production environment (indicator organisms). The dairy industry commonly uses coliform bacteria as...

Mitigation of Microbiological Water Quality by Last Irrigation-to-Harvest Intervals

Creator:: Emch, Alexander W.
Abstract:: Foodborne outbreaks involving fresh produce have been on the rise since the late 1990's. Pathogens such as Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli are prevalent in agricultural environments and commonly travel between farms via irrigation water. The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) has placed an increased emphasis on microbiological standards of...

The risk of Salmonella spp. from small poultry operations in Oregon

Creator:: Diaz-Hui, Jonathan
Abstract:: Salmonella is a bacterium responsible for several illnesses, including typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, and salmonellosis. It is commonly found in animal products, including poultry. Determination of potential reservoirs of Salmonella contamination is important to mitigate the risk of transmission and possible outbreaks. Outbreaks can negatively impact the livelihood of local...

Impact of Butterfat Content and Composition on the Quality of Laminated Pastries

Creator:: Ramirez, Sebastian
Abstract:: Butter has long been the premium choice for producing pastries such as Danish and croissants. Its inclusion has consistently delivered characteristically light and airy crumbs with beautifully flaky crust. Once considered a delicacy, pastries have now become innocuous in our everyday lives. Once requiring a skillful hand to sculpt and...

Further Optimization of Controlled Depuration for Eliminating Vibrio parahaemolyticus from Raw Oysters for Safe Consumption

Creator:: Ming, Ziwen
Abstract:: Vibrio parahaemolyticus infections in the United Stated have been linked to consumption of raw shellfish, particularly oysters, with symptoms of headache, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting. Depuration, as a post-harvest process, has a long history of being applied in shellfish industry to reduce sewage bacteria. In order to reduce the...

Influence of Processing Parameters on the Inactivation of Salmonella spp. During the Cooking Step of Jerky Production Using a Commercial-Scale Dehydrator

Creator:: Minarsich, Joey
Abstract:: United States Department of Agriculture-Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA-FSIS) guidelines for beef jerky processing support producers' ability to satisfy the performance standard requirements for achieving a 5-log reduction in Salmonella and E. coli O157:H7. The first compliance guide for jerky processors was created in response to several Salmonella outbreaks...

Characterization of Milk Hauling Practices and Their Impact on Raw Milk Microbiological Quality

Creator:: Kuhn, Eva
Abstract:: The dairy industry has indicated that milk hauling sporadically compromises milk quality, but often the reason is unknown. Milk hauling practices are an underexplored area of research, and are in need of attention because during hauling milk is most exposed to the external environment in comparison with any other step...
