Probiotics, vaccines and other interventions for pathogen control in animals

摘要: Publisher Summary In spite of tremendous improvements in reduction pathogens on finished products, focusing solely reducing the foods has neither eliminated human foodborne illnesses nor does it address issues environmental contamination or animal exposure. a new effort to reduce illnesses, increased emphasis been placed development intervention strategies for use live prior slaughter; because these could produce most significant exposures organism and, therefore, related and deaths. Because correlation between fecal pathogen shedding carcass contamination, role production safe wholesome food product is now viewed as crucial well preservation quality integrity. Some promising live-animal research focused probiotics (and other ecologically-based strategies), vaccines, chemical methods pathogenic bacterial populations animals. These can be loosely grouped into two categories: pro-commensal (or competitive enhancement) directly anti-pathogen strategies. Pro-commensal utilize activities microbial ecosystem against by capitalizing natural competition nutrients niches. Directly, strategies, hand, specifically kill slow growth pathogen(s) via several potential mechanisms. This chapter discusses both general some specific being developed utilized industry.
