Analysis of scenarios to reduce the probability of acquiring hemolytic uremic syndrome associated with beef consumption
(Sage Publications, 2021)The objective of this study was to develop a quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) model to evaluate potential risk mitigation strategies to reduce the probability of acquiring hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) ... -
Comparison of six commercial systems for the detection of non-O157 STEC in meat and vegetables
(Elsevier, 2019-12)Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are important pathogens transmitted by food that may cause severe illness in human beings. Thus, systems for STEC detection in food should have increasingly higher sensitivity ... -
Comprehensive evaluation and implementation of improvement actions in bovine abattoirs to reduce pathogens exposure
(Elsevier, 2020-03)The slaughter process plays an important role in animal welfare, meat quality, safety and public health through the meat production chain. In this study, we performed a three-stage evaluation: I) comprehensive evaluation, ... -
Comprehensive evaluation and implementation of improvement actions in butcher shops
(Plos One, 2016-09-12)Foodborne pathogens can cause acute and chronic diseases and produce a wide range of symptoms. Since the consumption of ground beef is a risk factor for infections with some bacterial pathogens, we performed a comprehensive ... -
Comprehensive evaluation of abattoirs with no Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point plan in Tucumán, Argentina = Evaluación integral de frigoríficos sin un plan de análisis de peligros y puntos críticos de control en Tucumán, Argentina
(Elsevier, 2023-02-25)This work focused on the comprehensive study of two provincial transit abattoirs in Tucumán, Argentina, with no Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan. Visits (n = 20) were conducted between 2016 and 2018 ... -
Evaluation of decontamination efficacy of commonly used antimicrobial interventions for beef carcasses against Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli
(2018-08)In Argentina, Shiga toxin producing Escherichia coli (STEC) serogroups O157, O26, O103, O111, O145 and O121 are adulterant in ground beef. In other countries, the zero-tolerance approach to all STEC is implemented for ... -
Genomic analysis of shiga toxin-containing Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolated from Argentinean cattle
(Plos, 2021-10)Cattle are the main reservoir of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), with O157:H7 the distinctive serotype. EHEC is the main causative agent of a severe systemic disease, Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome (HUS). Argentina ... -
Isolation and characterization of non-O157 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli from beef carcasses, cuts and trimmings of abattoirs in Argentina
(2017-08-22)Several foods contaminated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are associated with human diseases. Some countries have established microbiological criteria for non-O157 STEC, thus, the absence of serogroups ... -
Prevalence of colistin-resistant Escherichia coli in foods and food-producing animals through the food chain: A worldwide systematic review and meta-analysis
(Elsevier, 2024-03)The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to summarize the available scientific evidence on the prevalence of colistin-resistant Escherichia coli strains isolated from foods and food-producing animals, ... -
Quantitative risk assessment of haemolytic uremic syndrome associated with beef consumption in Argentina
(Plos One, 2020-11)We developed a quantitative microbiological risk assessment (QMRA) of haemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) associated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC)-contaminated beef (intact beef cuts, ground beef and ...
