Viruses are common causes of foodborne outbreaks. Viral diseases have low fatality rates but transmission to humans via food is important due to the high probability of consuming fecally contaminated food or water because of poor food handling. Because of the low infectious doses of some foodborne viruses, there is a need for standardization and the development of new sensitive methods for detecting viruses. The focus is on molecular and non-molecular approaches, and emerging methods for the detection of foodborne viruses. The detection of noroviruses, hepatitis A and E viruses, rotaviruses and adenoviruses will be discussed. The chapter will conclude with insights into future research directions.

AN ALTERNATIVE WAY FOR REDUCTION OF SALMONELLA IN POULTRY PRODUCTS: BACTERIOPHAGES
Güzel, Mustafa; Soyer, Yeşim; Akçelik, Mustafa; Department of Biotechnology (2022-6-03)
Antibiotic resistance of pathogenic microorganisms is a severe public health problem. One of the main reasons of the resistance is the overuse of antibiotics in veterinary and food animals. Non-typhoidal Salmonella is a major foodborne pathogen that causes millions of cases each year, worldwide. Although Salmonella causes outbreaks in almost all food commodities, it is mostly associated with poultry. In addition to high prevalence in poultry, Salmonella isolates recovered from poultry have shown multi drug ...
Development of immunoaffinity based detection platforms for food pathogens
Çam, Dilek; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni; Department of Biology (2016)
Salmonella and E.coli, food pathogens, are among the very important pathogens threating the health. Rapid and easy detection of these pathogens is crucial. In this context, lateral flow assay (LFA) platform prepared by gold nanoparticles (GNPs) based on antibody for Salmonella and E.coli O157:H7 was developed in the first part of this study. In second part, single chain variable fragments (scFv) and SNAP-Tagged full IgG (fusion protein) of se155-4 antibody specific to Salmonella were genetically produced. T...
A Viral Enzymatic Reaction Prioritization Tool for Development of Viral Biosensors
Kıyıkçı , Hüseyin Furkan; Anık , Ülkü; Süzek, Barış Ethem (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi Enformatik Enstitüsü; 2022-10)
Viruses are small pathogens that are capable of infecting most eukaryotes. Their effect varies from slight to fatal for the infected organism. Viral infections may lead to significant ecological, social, and financial costs. Despite significant advancements in vaccine and virus research, virus viral diseases continue to be a major public health concern. Biosensors, in general, are compact devices that convert bio-recognition processes into measurable signals in a short amount of time. More specifically, vir...
Development of a new immobilization procedure for detection of stphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) and Candida Albicans
Ertürkan, Deniz; Özgen, Canan; Külah, Haluk; Department of Chemical Engineering (2012)
Fast and accurate detection of pathogens such as bacteria, their toxins and viruses at low concentrations is very important. The conventional techniques are time consuming where expensive equipment is required with a consumption of excess amount of blood from patients. Recently, immunosensors are used for the detection of pathogens because they are miniature, sensitive, biocompatible and require low power. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP), 76 million people become ill due t...
