Sludge composting, a primary method for resource recovery from sludge, plays a vital role in reducing contaminants such as pathogens, with enterococci regarded as a superior indicator organism for pathogen inactivation efficacy....These findings highlight the potential for enhancing pathogen inactivation by optimizing composting parameters.

The results indicate that pathogen inactivation observed in small-scale setups is also applicable to large-scale systems, with no significant scale impact on inactivation....Increased solid retention time through frass recirculation did not significantly affect pathogen inactivation but considerably improved the yield of larvae per treated tonne of food waste. The results clearly show that inactivation is linked to larval presence and activity.

Ready-to-eat sliced prosciutto samples were treated with ultraviolet (UV) light (wavelength: 265 and 275 nm/intensity: 10 and 50 mW) after inoculation with hepatitis E virus (HEV), Escherichia coli O157:H7, or Listeria monocytogenes. The pa...

In this chapter, we summarized the principles and fundamentals of pathogen inactivation using the main NTT, e.g., high-pressure processing (HPP), ultraviolet C radiation (UV-C), high-intensity ultrasound (HIUS), cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) and pulsed electric field (PEF), as well as the principles

Foodborne pathogens are a major public health concern, causing millions of illnesses and deaths yearly. Traditional thermal processing methods, such as cooking and pasteurization, are effective at killing pathogens, but they can also damage...

Since pathogen inactivation technologies impact the clinical efficacy of the platelets, including but not limited to lower increments after transfusion and more significant bleeding, a balance needs to be struck between the safety and efficacy of platelet transfusions.
