Transcriptomic response of Campylobacter jejuni following exposure to acidified sodium chlorite
Abstract Chemical decontamination during processing is used in many countries to mitigate the Campylobacter load on chicken meat. Chlorine is a commonly used sanitizer in poultry processing to limit foodborne bacterial pathogens but its efficacy is limited by high bacterial loads and organic materia...
