Bacterial pathogens have increasingly been identified as disease causing agents in vegetable-linked outbreaks. Consumers nowadays show higher demands for fresh or minimally processed fruits and vegetables, and at the same time potential sources of pathogen infestation are increasing due to the more frequent use of animal manures as fertilizers in organic than in conventional agriculture. On the other hand, a higher antagonistic potential against invading pathogens is implicated from the more diverse microbiota in organic soils. Vegetable-associated outbreaks in Europe are not well documented, and guidelines are missing for reducing risks of pathogen infestation. Thus, a survey on organically grown vegetables has been carried out by the “PathOrganic”... |

There are indications that the more frequent use of untreated organic residues for fertilization results in increased risk of contamination with human pathogens. Here, we evaluate the ability of two different strains of Campylobacter jejuni to persist in manure and soil as well as spread to spinach plants. It was revealed that different strategies for inoculation of C. jejuni contribute to the persistence of the bacterium in soil, roots, and shoots. Upon inoculation of the bacteria into manure prior to soil application,the amount of C. jejuni subsequently recovered in soil was higher than that from treatments involving the addition of C. jejuni cells to the soil after plant emergence. Irrespective of the bacterial inoculation dose and strategy employed,... |

PathOrganic assesses risks associated with the consumption of fresh and minimally processed vegetables due to the prevalence of bacterial human pathogens in plant produce. The project evaluates whether organic production poses a risk on food safety, taking into consideration sources of pathogen transmission (e.g. animal manure). The project also explores whether organic versus conventional production practices may reduce the risk of pathogen manifestation. In Europe, vegetable-linked outbreaks are not well investigated. A conceptual model together with novel sampling strategies and specifically adjusted methods provides the basis for large-scale surveys of organically grown plant produce in five European countries. Critical control points are... |
