Culture-free, strain-level characterisation of foodborne pathogens using targeted nanopore metagenomics Rapid detection and characterisation of foodborne pathogens is essential in outbreak investigation and food manufacturing quality control monitoring, where the source of the microbial contamination needs to be identified to protect the food supply chain and safeguard public health. Traditionally, food samples suspected of causing illness are subjected to culture isolation and subculturing techniques; however, these methods are time-consuming and can result in delays. Even with the development of modern approaches, such as metagenomic sequencing, culture enrichment of the sample has remained a prerequisite, despite the potential to introduce bias from growth competition. Due to these limitations, in 60% of foodborne outbreaks reported in the EU, the contaminated food source responsible cannot be determined with certainty. Nanopore sequencing offers real-time data streaming, which provides immediate access to results, and underpins adaptive sampling — an on-device enrichment method unique to Oxford Nanopore, providing the ability to direct sequencing capacity toward sequences of interest in real time. This means that enrichment for potential pathogens in food sources could be done without the time-consuming steps associated with culture-dependent methods. https://lnkd.in/gD5UKFtg

Finding contaminating pathogens is no easy task, and much of the problem stems from the tools available to screen for harmful pathogens – even the best detection methods of the modern era are often not effective enough at protecting the public. But now, Chinese researchers have developed a new method for detecting foodborne pathogens that’s said to be faster, cheaper, and more effective than existing methods. In our latest issue of Food & Beverage, writer Mark Stephen takes a closer look at how this innovative technique could improve screening processes and keep contaminated food out of the hands of consumers.

Under the HOTHREAT - Tailored CBRNe protection measures for hotels and conference centers. project, another guideline about food protection was developed! ? Why food protection topics are significant ?? ? -?????????due to expansion and development of food supply chain, diversity of food and food related products, free trade food market, cross border food trading, problems related with global unemployment, human migration and globalization of world economy. ? ?What pathogens are causing the most food incidents ? a)???Caused by the biological contamination: Norovirus, Clostridium perfringens, Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp., Bacillus cereus and Listeria. b)???Caused by the chemical agents: aflatoxin, dioxin, cyanide and peanut allergen The guideline concerns food protection developed by (UniLodz) Uniwersytet ?ódzki, National Institute of Aerospace Technology, Polícia de Seguran?a Pública, Polaris (DoubleTree by Hilton), Hotel Boss, Atiram Hotels, Center for Security Studies (KEMEA) More information available in the document ,,D.3.2 Food protection guidelines” in the near future Photo: Adobe Stock

Join the three parts of the webinar series by Retsch - Milling and Sieving, CEM Corporation and Shimadzu Deutschland GmbH on food safety! The third part is about analytics. Every processing step of a food represents a source of contamination, which is why ultra-processed foods (UPF) should be viewed critically. Heavy metals are analyzed using ICP-MS and pesticides using GC-MS/MS. You have the opportunity to get in touch with the device experts and discuss your questions.

If you've been following the #PFAS story, you know it is turning up EVERYWHERE -- not only groundwater and non-stick cookware but also deodorants, butter wrappers, contact lenses, sports bras, and many, many more common products (see Environmental Health Sciences and Mamavation's excellent studies and testing results here: https://lnkd.in/gii479kr). Another common source of exposure was fast-food wrappers, but in a bit of good news, that's changing, according to the FDA. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/gwSDkvWJ

?? Don’t miss our essential new video about the fast-changing threat from #mycotoxins. > For more than 60 years since they were first discovered, aflatoxins and ochratoxins have been regarded as the main dangers to global food safety. > But the picture is changing fast – with climate change creating more toxin-friendly conditions in many parts of the world, and lesser known variants like T-2 and DON are also on the rise. > It means that current regulations covering around a dozen common mycotoxins may need to be updated and expanded – posing new challenges for food testing laboratories. ?Why not also check out our portfolio of around 400 mycotoxin reference materials, research chemicals, and PT samples at lgcstandards.com? #MycotoxinAnalysis #FoodSafety #ScienceForASaferWorld
