Presentation by Désirée Schmid, doctoral student at Institute for Food Safety and Hygiene UZH, at the Swiss Veterinary Days 23-25th April in Basel. Topic: Occurrence and characterization of Salmonella, Campylobacter, Listeria monocytogenes, and Yersinia enterocolitica in BARF products

New paper on #Salmonella and #chicken #meat. Our findings highlight the effectiveness of Swiss control measures in the poultry production but underscore the importance of maintaining consumer awareness to mitigate Salmonella transmission and MDR risks. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our new paper is just published in JFP. #Campylobacter remains the leading cause for bacterial foodborne disease worldwide. Introduction of indicative contamination values in chicken meat at post-harvest level should be considered. For further reading: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

New paper from our lab just published. The contamination with #ESBL-EC in retail chicken meat in Switzerland is moderate; nevertheless, it is a potential vehicle for MDR ESBL-EC and for genes conferring #resistance to clinically important antimicrobials. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

#DidYouKnow: Today is World Food Safety Day. See our research activities, in the areas of „bacterial #foodborne #pathogens“ and „#AMR in microorganisms at the food chain-human-environment interface: ils.uzh.ch/en/Publikation…

First impressions from today’s symposium. Institute for Food Safety and Hygiene UZH is a co-organizer. For more info see: syms.ch/event-details/…

Lucien Kelbert, postdoc Institute for Food Safety and Hygiene UZH, earned second place at syms.ch/event-details/… for best poster presentation. The pitch on his poster ( #Campylobacter and poultry meat at retail level ) was excellent.

New paper from our group on Rhodococcus equi just accepted in BMC Microbiology: We combined WGS and AMR testing of 37 selected R. equi isolates from animal, human, and environmental sources, collected in Switzerland over a 21 year period. The paper will soon be available online.
