Article Abstract
This study developed and optimized loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assays for rapid detection of and in fresh beef. LAMP primers targeting the gene of and gene of were used. Reaction conditions including temperature, dNTP concentration, Mg concentration, primer ratio, and Bst DNA polymerase amount were optimized for each pathogen. Differences were observed between the two pathogens in optimal temperature, Mg concentration, and Bst DNA polymerase requirements, highlighting the importance of pathogen-specific optimization. The optimized assays demonstrated high sensitivity with detection limits of 120 fg/μL for and 130 fg/μL for , achieving detection within 40 and 60 min, respectively. Specificity tests confirmed both assays were highly specific for their target pathogens in fresh beef samples with no cross-reactivity observed. Addition of hydroxynaphthol blue enabled simple visual detection of positive results, eliminating the need for specialized equipment. The developed LAMP assays offer rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of these important foodborne pathogens.

Human listeriosis is a severe food-borne illness, with fatality rates ranging from 20 to 30 %. In Brazil, despite being an underdiagnosed and underreported disease, the presence of the microorganism in food has been the subject of important studies. However, its occurrence in slaughterhouse environments has received little attention in recent years.

Cellulose-based materials face limitations in fresh meat packaging applications, which require resistance to moist and fatty foods and high environmental humidity, as well as sufficient gas barrier properties for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP). Even with conventional plastic coating, these materials encounter practical challenges such as sealability and structural stability during storage. This study aimed to evaluate the suitability of recyclable cellulose-based trays coated with polyethylene (PE)/ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH)/PE (cellulose/PE/EVOH) for MAP (60% CO/40% N and 75% O/25% CO) of selected fresh foods of animal sources: salmon, chicken, and beef, against polyethylene terephthalate (PET) trays as control.

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of embryo origin (artificial insemination [AI] vs. in vitro embryo production [IVP]), calf breed, and calf sex on gestation length (GL), birthweight (BiW), calving difficulty (CD) score and perinatal mortality. Lactating dairy cows (n = 1,106) were randomly assigned to be bred by timed AI (frozen-thawed semen) or timed embryo transfer (ET) with fresh or frozen IVP dairy (Holstein Friesian [HF] or Jersey [JE]) or beef breed (Angus, [ANG] or Limousin [LM]) embryos.

Yersinia enterocolitica is a food-borne pathogen that causes yersiniosis, and its primary sources are animal-originated foods. This work aimed to analyze the effect of fresh pork meat juice (MJ) on planktonic and biofilm growth of Y. enterocolitica strains and to investigate the activity of some generally recognized as safe (GRAS) food preservatives.
