Evidence of lethal and sublethal injury in food‐borne bacterial pathogens exposed to high‐intensity pulsed‐plasma gas discharges.

Rowan, N.J.; Espie, S.; Harrower, J.; Farrell, H.; Marsili, L.; Anderson, J.G.; MacGregor, S. J. (Wiley, 2008-01)

Aims: To apply scanning electron microscopy, image analysis and a fluorescent viability stain to assess lethal and sublethal injury in food‐borne bacteria exposed to pulsed‐plasma gas discharges (PPGD). Methods and ...
Investigation of critical inter-related factors affecting the efficacy of pulsed light for inactivating clinically relevant bacterial pathogens

Farrell, H.P.; Garvey, M.; Cormican, M.; Laffey, J.G.; Rowan, N.J. (Wiley, 2009-08)

Aims: To investigate critical electrical and biological factors governing the efficacy of pulsed light (PL) for the in vitro inactivation of bacteria isolated from the clinical environment. Development of this alternative ...
Virulent rough filaments of Listeria monocytogenes from clinical and food samples secreting wild-type levels of cell-Free p60 protein.

Rowan, Neil J.; Candlish, Alan A.G.; Bubert, Andreas; Anderson, John G.; Kramer, Karl; McLaughlin, J. (American Society for Microbiology, 2000-07)

Atypical rough cell filaments of Listeria monocytogenes (designated FR variants), isolated from clinical and food samples, form long filaments up to 96 microm in length and demonstrated wild-type levels of adherence, ...
