Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Non-typhoidal Salmonella (hereafter Salmonella) is a leading foodborne pathogen, causing 93.8 million cases of gastroenteritis and 155,000 deaths globally each year. This pathogen can survive many physical and chemical treatments commonly employed in the food industry, thus compromising food safety. As such, it is crucial to explore the survival behaviors and mechanisms of Salmonella under food processing and preservation conditions. On the other hand, it is essential to develop novel antibacterial alternatives that possess excellent anti-Salmonella activity and a low capacity to induce bacterial resistance. Doing so, we can better prevent and control Salmonella in foods. We cordially invite submissions on the aforementioned topics to build a comprehensive body of knowledge to ensure food safety associated with Salmonella.
