2004 article

Bacterial Separation and Concentration from Complex Sample Matrices: A Review

Stevens, K. A., & Jaykus, L.-A. (2004, January 1). Critical Reviews in Microbiology.

By: K. Stevens n & L. Jaykus n

MeSH headings : Bacteria / growth & development; Bacteria / isolation & purification; Bacteriological Techniques / methods; Colony Count, Microbial; Food Microbiology
topics (OpenAlex): Biosensors and Analytical Detection; Salmonella and Campylobacter epidemiology; Bacteriophages and microbial interactions
TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to provide a detailed understanding of the science, possibilities, and limitations of separating and concentrating bacterial cells from the food matrix in an effort to further improve the ability to harness molecular methods for the rapid detection of foodborne pathogens.

1992 article

Effect of Treatment Conditions on Nisin Inactivation of Gram-negative Bacteria

Stevens, K. A., Sheldon, B. W., Klapes, N. A., & Klaenhammer, T. R. (1992, October 1). Journal of Food Protection.

By: K. Stevens n, B. Sheldon  n, N. Klapes n & T. Klaenhammer n

topics (OpenAlex): Probiotics and Fermented Foods; Listeria monocytogenes in Food Safety; Microbial Inactivation Methods
TL;DR: The addition of bovine serum albumin to the treatments containing nisin and EDTA did not result in a significant decrease in inhibitory action, and all of the chelators examined exhibited some inhibitory activity. (via Semantic Scholar)
