2004 journal article

Characterization of Antimicrobial-Resistant Phenotypes and Genotypes among Salmonella enterica Recovered from Pigs on Farms, from Transport Trucks, and from Pigs after Slaughter

Journal of Food Protection, 67(4), 698–705.

By: W. Gebreyes n, P. Davies n, P. Turkson n, W. Morgan Morrow n, J. Funk n, C. Altier n, S. Thakur n

MeSH headings : Animals; Anti-Bacterial Agents / pharmacology; Colony Count, Microbial; Drug Resistance, Bacterial; Drug Resistance, Multiple, Bacterial; Electrophoresis, Gel, Pulsed-Field; Genotype; Microbial Sensitivity Tests; Phenotype; Salmonella enterica / classification; Salmonella enterica / drug effects; Swine / microbiology
TL;DR: Isolates from the trucks were similar, based on pulsed-field gel electrophoresis patterns, to those from the cecum and mesenteric lymph nodes of pigs on two of the farms, suggesting the probable infection of pigs during transport. (via Semantic Scholar)

2004 journal article

Salmonella enterica serovars from pigs on farms and after slaughter and validity of using bacteriologic data to define herd Salmonella status

JOURNAL OF FOOD PROTECTION, 67(4), 691–697.

By: W. Gebreyes n, P. Davies n, P. Turkson n, W. Morrow n, J. Funk n & C. Altier n

MeSH headings : Abattoirs; Animals; Cecum / microbiology; Cross Infection / prevention & control; Feces / microbiology; Food Contamination / prevention & control; Food Handling / methods; Lymph Nodes / microbiology; Salmonella Infections, Animal / epidemiology; Salmonella enterica / isolation & purification; Swine / microbiology; Swine Diseases / epidemiology; Transportation
TL;DR: The results support recent findings that risk of exposure to Salmonella during transport and lairage remains a concern under contemporary industry conditions and imply that slaughter plant studies based on phenotyping of Salmonea alone (such as serovars) may not reliably indicate the Salmoneella status of commercial swine farms.

TL;DR: The findings imply that pigs raised in the commercial production system may pose a risk in serving as reservoirs of resistant Salmonella. (via Semantic Scholar)

2001 journal article

Longitudinal study of Salmonella enterica in growing pigs reared in multiple-site swine production systems

VETERINARY MICROBIOLOGY, 83(1), 45–60.

By: J. Funk n, P. Davies* & M. Nichols n

author keywords: Salmonella enterica; pig-bacteria; food safety
MeSH headings : Animal Feed / microbiology; Animal Husbandry; Animals; Cohort Studies; Feces / microbiology; Longitudinal Studies; Prevalence; Risk Factors; Salmonella Infections, Animal / epidemiology; Salmonella Infections, Animal / microbiology; Salmonella enterica / classification; Salmonella enterica / isolation & purification; Serotyping / veterinary; Swine; Swine Diseases / epidemiology; Swine Diseases / microbiology
TL;DR: It is suggested that cohort level, as opposed to farm or company level events or management practices, may be important as potential risk factors for S. enterica on swine farms and may suggest that uncontrolled studies of interventions to control S. entersica may yield misleading results.

Comparison of methods for isolating Salmonella bacteria from faeces of naturally infected pigs

Journal of Applied Microbiology, 89(1), 169–177.

By: P. Davies n, P. Turkson n, J. Funk n, M. Nichols n, S. Ladely* & P. Fedorka-Cray*

MeSH headings : Animals; Bacteriological Techniques; Culture Media; Feces / microbiology; Salmonella / growth & development; Salmonella / isolation & purification; Salmonella Infections, Animal / diagnosis; Salmonella Infections, Animal / microbiology; Sensitivity and Specificity; Swine Diseases / diagnosis; Swine Diseases / microbiology; Temperature
TL;DR: The results highlight the imperfect sensitivity of culture methods, and the need for researchers to consider the sensitivity of bacteriological methods in the design and interpretation of the results of epidemiologic studies based on faecal culture. (via Semantic Scholar)

2000 journal article

The effect of fecal sample weight on detection of Salmonella enterica in swine feces

JOURNAL OF VETERINARY DIAGNOSTIC INVESTIGATION, 12(5), 412–418.

By: J. Funk n, P. Davies n & M. Nichols n

MeSH headings : Animals; Colony Count, Microbial; Feces / microbiology; Female; Male; Rectum; Reproducibility of Results; Salmonella Infections, Animal / diagnosis; Salmonella enterica / isolation & purification; Sensitivity and Specificity; Specimen Handling; Swine; Swine Diseases / diagnosis; Swine Diseases / microbiology
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that fecal sample weight can markedly influence estimates of prevalence of S. enterica in epidemiologic studies and failure to consider the imperfect sensitivity of bacterial culture in the design and interpretation of epidemiologists' studies will lead to underestimation of prevalence and reduced power to detect the presence of the disease.
