A Bibliometric and Systematic Review of Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment in Food Safety (1995–2024)
Quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) has become a central framework for evaluating foodborne microbial hazards by integrating microbiological data, exposure assessment, dose–response modelling, and probabilistic simulation. Over the past three decades, its rapid expansion has created challenges in obtaining a coherent overview of the field’s structure, dominant themes, and research trajectories. This study presents a bibliometric and systematic review of QMRA research in food safety. Bibliographic...

From Traditional Typing to Genomic Precision: Whole-Genome Sequencing of Listeria monocytogenes Isolated from Refrigerated Foods in Chile
Ready-to-eat (RTE) foods are the most common sources of Listeria monocytogenes transmission. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) enhances the investigation of foodborne outbreaks by enabling the tracking of pathogen sources and the prediction of genetic traits related to virulence, stress, and antimicrobial resistance, which benefit food safety management. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of WGS in the typing of 16 L. monocytogenes strains isolated from refrigerated foods in Chile, highlighting...

Complete genome of
Microbacterium plantarum
CoE-159-22, isolated from traditionally produced Montenegrin cheese
ABSTRACT
Microbacterium plantarum
(
M. plantarum
) was recently described as a new species isolated from copper globemallow (
Sphaeralcea angustifolia
). Here, we report the complete genome of
M. plantarum
CoE-159-22, which was obtained from traditionally produced Montenegrin cheese.

Draft Genome Sequence of Enterococcus dispar CoE-457-22, Isolated from Traditionally Produced Montenegrin Dry Sausage
Enterococcus dispar
was isolated for the first time from synovial fluid and stool cultures and described as a new species in 1991. Here, we report the genome of
E. dispar
CoE-457-22, which was obtained from traditionally produced Montenegrin dry sausage (sudzuk).
