The bacterium Salmonella causes a spectrum of foodborne diseases ranging from acute gastroenteritis to systemic infections, and represents a significant burden of disease globally. In Australia, Salmonella is frequently associated with outbreaks and is a leading cause of foodborne illness, which results in a significant medical and economic burden. Salmonella infection involves colonisation of the small intestine, where the bacteria invades host cells and establishes an intracellular infection. To survive within host cells, Salmonella employs type-three secretion systems to deliver bacterial effector proteins into the cytoplasm of host cells. These bacterial effectors seek out and modify specific host proteins, disrupting host processes such as cell signalling, intracellular trafficking, and programmed cell death. This strategy of impairing host cells allows Salmonella to establish a replicative niche within the cell, where they can replicate to high numbers before escaping to infect neighbouring cells, or be transmitted to new hosts. While the importance of effector protein translocation to infection is well established, our understanding of many effector proteins remains incomplete. Many Salmonella effectors have unknown function and unknown roles during infection. A greater understanding of how Salmonella manipulates host cells during infection will lead to improved strategies to prevent, control, and eliminate disease. Further, studying effector proteins can be a useful means for exploring host cell biology and elucidating the details of host cell signalling.

“…Warmer temperatures facilitate the reproduction and replication of pathogens, enabling quicker reproduction in shorter periods of time [92]. For example, Campylobacter grows optimally at [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45] • C and can double in number in just 6 hours at 32…”

“…Campylobacteriosis shows seasonal trends globally. A systematic review of more than 15 countries including Australia found campylobacteriosis incidence consistently peaked in spring to summer [14,17,37,[104][105][106] suggesting a seasonal association. Indeed, a study in Massachusetts, US, found that campylobacteriosis cases peaked within a two-day window of the warmest temperatures of the year [107], and outbreaks of campylobacteriosis in South Korea were strongly positively correlated with the monthly mean temperature (r = 0.66) [108].…”

Using farm‐level data from dairy farmers in India's Bihar state and the two‐stage residual inclusion method, this study investigates the impact of the adoption of food safety measures (FSMs) on milk yield and profitability of smallholder dairy farms. This study reveals that herd size and experience in dairy farming have a significant effect on the number of FSMs smallholders adopt. An additional FSM increases milk yield by about 1% and profitability by about 2.3%. An extra year of education increases yield and profits by about 3.8% and 4.9%, respectively. The government could design and incentivize policies that help increase herd size and promote better housing conditions for animals, thus promoting the uptake of FSMs and increased milk yield and profitability.
