Phage Biocontrol Effectively Reduces Contamination of Wheat with Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia coli O121 and O26 Without Adverse Effects on Flour Quality

Phage Biocontrol Effectively Reduces Contamination of Wheat with Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia coli O121 and O26 Without Adverse Effects on Flour Quality

Contamination of wheat flours with Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) is a concern for the milling industry. Milling-specific interventions are needed to address this food safety hazard. The objectives for this study were to determine the efficacy of bacteriophage treatment in reducing wheat STEC...
