Abstract: Compositions and methods that utilize a combination of essential oils or other plant-derived extracts or compounds and an emulsifier as an antimicrobial are provided. In some embodiments the compositions further include ozone. In some embodiments, the composition includes one or more plant essential oils, plant extracts, or plant-derived compounds, or combinations thereof, and an emulsifier (such as a saponin). The antimicrobial composition may also include water, peracetic acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, and/or hydrogen peroxide. Methods of killing a microorganism, including contacting the microorganism with the disclosed antimicrobial compositions are also provided. The microorganism may be present on a food item or a food contact of non-food contact surface and may be in the form of a biofilm. In some examples, the antimicrobial composition is used one or more times (such as 1 to 5 times).

Abstract: Antimicrobial compositions derived from edible plant sources such as essential oils, their active components, spices and plant extracts have shown antimicrobial effects against a number of foodborne pathogens. The foodborne pathogens of concern in meat and poultry products include Salmonella enterica, Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes. The antimicrobial compositions were applied to a meat surface using liquid or powder electrostatic spray systems to effectively reduce the amount of pathogens on various meat and poultry products.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides immunogenic compositions against Campylobacter and methods for using the immunogenic composition to generate an immune response against Campylobacter and/or reduce intestinal colonization by Campylobacter.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides coding and amino acid sequences for a Campylobacter jejuni pilus protein (and from other species as well). This protein, when administered to a human or animal, elicits the expression of an immune response to Campylobacter jejuni, with the result that colonization and/or infection by this organism is reduced. Recombinant protein or biofilm material comprising the pilus protein is formulated into immunogenic compositions, especially for mucosal administration. Thus, the present invention provides methods for improvement of the microbial quality of food products including poultry, eggs, meat and dairy products, and indirectly of plant foods that may come in contact with agricultural waste, either from fertilization or from irrigation water.
