Validation Study for VERIPRO® SARS-CoV-2 Env Assay for the Detection of SARS-CoV-2 from Stainless-Steel Environmental Surface Swabs: Emergency Response Validation<i>—</i>AOAC <i>Performance Tested Method</i>SM 122001 Open
Background The VERIPRO® SARS-CoV-2 Env assay uses reverse transcriptase (RT) PCR to detect SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19, from stainless-steel environmental sample swabs. Objective To validate the VERIPRO SARS-CoV-2 Env assay…

Statistical adjustment of culture-independent diagnostic tests for trend analysis in the Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet), USA Open
We highlight the lack of data on the total numbers of tested samples as one of main limitations for CIDT adjustment. Our results demonstrate the importance of adjusting CIDTs for understanding trends in Campylobacter incidence in FoodNet.

Genome Sequences of Listeria monocytogenes Strains with Resistance to Arsenic Open
Listeria monocytogenes frequently exhibits resistance to arsenic. We report here the draft genome sequences of eight genetically diverse arsenic-resistant L. monocytogenes strains from human listeriosis and food-associated environments. Th…

Draft Genome Sequences of Two Historical Listeria monocytogenes Strains from Human Listeriosis Cases in 1933 Open
We report here the draft genome sequences of two Listeria monocytogenes strains from some of the earliest reported cases of human listeriosis in North America. The strains were isolated in 1933 from patients in Massachusetts and Connecticu…

Identification of a <i>Campylobacter coli</i> methyltransferase targeting adenines at GATC sites Open
Campylobacter coli can infect humans and colonize multiple other animals, but its host-associated genes or adaptations are poorly understood. Adenine methylation at GATC sites, resulting in MboI resistance of genomic DNA, was earlier frequ…

Whole-Genome Sequences of Agricultural, Host-Associated <i>Campylobacter coli</i> and <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> Strains Open
We report here the genome sequences of four agricultural, multidrug-resistant Campylobacter spp.: C. coli 11601 and C. jejuni 11601MD, isolated from turkey cecum and jejunum, respectively, and C. coli 6067 and C. coli 6461, isolated from t…

Preharvest Salmonella Detection for Evaluation of Fresh Ground Poultry Product Contamination Open
Salmonella is an important economic and public health concern for the poultry industry. Fresh ground product has been linked with multiple salmonellosis outbreaks in humans. Exposure can be controlled by proper handling and preparation by …
