Overview of Evidence of Antimicrobial Use and Antimicrobial Resistance in the Food Chain (2020)
Journal Article
Bennani, H., Mateus, A. L. P., Mays, N., Eastmure, E., Staerk, K. D. C., & Haesler, B. (2020). Overview of Evidence of Antimicrobial Use and Antimicrobial Resistance in the Food Chain. Antibiotics, 9(2), 49. https://doi.org/10.3390/antibiotics9020049

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global health problem. Bacteria carrying resistance genes can be transmitted between humans, animals and the environment. There are concerns that the widespread use of antimicrobials in the food chain constitutes a...

Quantitative risk assessment of hepatitis E virus: modelling the occurrence of viraemic pigs and the presence of the virus in organs of food safety interest (2018)
Journal Article
Crotta, M., Lavazza, A., Mateus, A. L. P., & Guitian, J. (2018). Quantitative risk assessment of hepatitis E virus: modelling the occurrence of viraemic pigs and the presence of the virus in organs of food safety interest. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mran.2018.02.001

Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is a zoonotic pathogen with consumption of pork and derived products identified in different countries as a risk factor for human exposure to HEV. Great efforts have been made to understand the dynamics of virus transmission w...
