Bacteriophage Cocktail for Biocontrol of Salmonella in Dried Pet Food

Abstract: Human salmonellosis has been associated with contaminated pet foods and treats. Therefore, there is interest in identifying novel approaches for reducing the risk of Salmonella contamination within pet food manufacturing environments. The use of lytic bacteriophages shows promise as a safe and effective way to mitigate Salmonella contamination in various food products. Bacteriophages are safe, natural, highly targeted antibacterial agents that specifically kill bacteria and can be targeted to kill food pathoge… Show more

“…In a previous study, we reported the application of the same Salmonella phage preparation significantly reduced Salmonella contamination of dry pet food. 15 The current study provides additional experimental evidence that lytic bacteriophages could also effectively reduce Salmonella contamination in various raw pet food ingredients. The foods tested in this study were representative of common food ingredients found in various raw pet food diets.…”

“…The phages have been described in more detail previously. 15 The following SalmoLyse Ò lots (batches) were used: Lot 0213H050123 (chicken); Lot 0211C150168 (tuna and cantaloupe); Lot 0212H200172 (lettuce); Lot #02TestSample (turkey).…”

“…According to several reports, phages were successfully applied against E. coli in calves, pigs, lams and poultry, against Campylobacter jejuni in chicken and against Salmonella in pigs (20-22). It was shown that bacteriophages biocontrol of S. enterica in dried pet food is effective and technically feasible (23). These promising results translate into a tendency toward commercialization of phage products in the fields of agriculture and veterinary medicine.…”
