in situ evaluation of paenibacillus alvei in reducing carriage of salmonella enterica serovar newport on whole tomato plants.recently, tomatoes have been implicated as a primary vehicle in food-borne outbreaks of salmonella enterica serovar newport and other salmonella serovars. long-term intervention measures to reduce salmonella prevalence on tomatoes remain elusive for growing and postharvest environments. a naturally occurring bacterium identified by 16s rrna gene sequencing as paenibacillus alvei was isolated epiphytically from plants native to the virginia eastern shore tomato-growing region. after initial antim ...201424747888
outbreak of salmonella newport infections linked to cucumbers--united states, 2014.in august 2014, pulsenet, the national molecular subtyping network for foodborne disease surveillance, detected a multistate cluster of salmonella enterica serotype newport infections with an indistinguishable pulse-field gel electrophoresis (pfge) pattern (xbai pfge pattern jjpx01.0061). outbreaks of illnesses associated with this pfge pattern have previously been linked to consumption of tomatoes harvested from virginia's eastern shore in the delmarva region and have not been linked to cucumbe ...201525695319
multinational outbreak of salmonella enterica serotype newport infections due to contaminated alfalfa sprouts.in december 1995, reported salmonella enterica serotype newport (sn) infections increased sharply in oregon and british columbia but not elsewhere in north america. similar unexplained increases had been noted in 6 other states in the fall of 1995.19999917119

salmonella newport and typhimurium colonization of fruit differs from leaves in various tomato cultivars.several outbreaks of salmonella enterica infections have been linked to tomatoes. one cost-effective way to complement on-farm preventive good agricultural practices is to identify cultivars with inherent decreased susceptibility to salmonella colonization. fruit and leaves of 13 tomato cultivars with distinct phenotypes were screened to evaluate their susceptibility to salmonella epiphytic colonization. field-grown fruit or gnotobiotically grown seedling leaves were spot inoculated in replicate ...201425364916
evaluating gulls as potential vehicles of salmonella enterica serotype newport (jjpx01.0061) contamination of tomatoes grown on the eastern shore of virginia.salmonella enterica serovar newport pattern jjpx01.0061 has been identified as causing several multistate outbreaks in the last 10 years, primarily due to contamination of tomatoes grown in virginia. the goal of this study was to evaluate gulls as a potential vehicle of s. newport pattern 61 contamination for tomatoes grown on the eastern shore of virginia. gull fecal samples were collected at four sites in eastern virginia for 3 months (may to july) in 2012, resulting in 360 samples, among whic ...201424141129
multistate outbreak of salmonella serotype bovismorbificans infections associated with hummus and tahini--united states, 2011.on september 27, 2011, three clinical isolates of salmonella enterica serotype bovismorbificans with indistinguishable pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (pfge) patterns were identified by the district of columbia public health laboratory (phl). human infection with s. bovismorbificans is rare in the united states. through query of pulsenet, the national molecular subtyping network for foodborne disease surveillance, six additional cases with indistinguishable pfge patterns were identified in thre ...201223169315
