Non Technical Summary
Salmonellosis is one of the most common foodborne diseases with a range anywhere from 1 to 4 million human infections reported each year in the United States. Further, it is one of the more costly foodborne diseases in the U.S. Given that foodborne Salmonella spp. can originate from a wide variety of food production environments, reduction of this organism at all stages of food production is critical. This project's research program reflects an integrated approach for controlling Salmonella spp. and other foodborne pathogens by examining virulence expression of Salmonella under typical food production and processing conditions.

Goals / Objectives
1.Determine the environmental factors that must be modified to prevent the early establishment of Salmonella in food production environments and virulence expression under these conditions; 2.Study the metabolism of Salmonella spp. under anaerobic conditions to better understand what factors are required for successful Salmonella spp. establishment in food production animals; 3.Screen potential prebiotic compounds that would promote beneficial bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract for humans and animals.
Project Methods
The idea here is to compare anaerobic and aerobic growth and pathogenic responses of foodborne Salmonella spp. The hypothesis is that Salmonella may physiologically behave differently when grown under one environmental condition versus the other. Our food production Salmonella spp. research projects will emphasize studies on the growth, survival and pathogenesis of Salmonella spp. under conditions encountered during food animal production and processing. We will also examine virulence activity of Salmonella spp. under these conditions.

Outputs
Target Audience:Salmonellosis is one of the most common foodborne diseases with a range anywhere from 1 to 4 million human infections reported each year in the United States. Further, it is one of the more costly foodborne diseases in the U.S. Given that foodborne Salmonella spp. can originate from a wide variety of food production environments, reduction of this organism at all stages of food production is critical. This project's research program reflects an integrated approach for controlling Salmonella spp. and other foodborne pathogens by examining virulence expression of Salmonella under typical food production and processing conditions. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?Postdocs and graduate students continued training on molecular techniques including microbiome analyses. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?Sixteen talks were given by the PI to a wide range of audiences, locally and in national forums. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?This is the final report for this project.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? Salmonella Research: A novel method was developed for the specific quantification of S. Typhimurium using an MPN combined with qPCR and a shorted incubation time (MPN-qPCR-SIT). For S. Typhimurium enumeration, dilutions of samples were transferred into three wells on a microtiter plate (same as MPN assay) and the plate was incubated for 4 h. The S. Typhimurium presence in wells was identified using a qPCR and populations were determined based on an MPN calculation. Bacterial populations were also determined with conventional MPN, plating, and qPCR to compare across independent methods. The R2 between the MPN-qPCR-SIT and MPN exhibited a high level of correlation (0.9752 in Salmonella pure culture, 0.9627 in mixed culture, and 0.9335 in mixed culture on chicken breast), suggesting that the MPN-qPCR-SIT offers a reliable alternative method for S. Typhimurium quantification. Although plating and qPCR were limited in their ability to detect low levels of S. Typhimurium (e.g. 0.18 log MPN/ml), these levels could be successfully detected with the MPN-qPCR-SIT. Chicken breast samples inoculated with S. Typhimurium were incubated at 0, 4, and 24 h and incubated samples were subjected to microbiome analysis. Both Salmonella and Enterobacteriaceae abundance was significantly increased along with incubation time; indicating that incubation could sufficiently support growth of target bacteria in the presence of a mixed community. The obvious strengths of the MPN-qPCR-SIT are 1) further confirmation step is not required, 2) the detection limit is as low as conventional MPN, but 3) is more rapid, requiring approximately 7 h to simultaneously complete quantification. Prebiotics and microbiome: When prebiotics and other fermentation substrates are delivered to animals as feed supplements, the typical goal is to improve weight gain and feed conversion. In this work, we examined pasture flock chicken cecal contents using next generation sequencing (NGS) to identify and understand the composition of the microbiome when prebiotics and fermentation substrates were supplemented. We generated 16S rRNA sequencing data for 120 separate cecal samples from groups of chickens receiving 1 of 3 prebiotics or fiber feed additives. The data indicated that respective feed additives enrich for specific bacterial community members and modulate the diversity of the microbiome. We applied synthetic learning in microbial ecology (SLiME) analysis to interpret 16S rRNA microbial community data and identify specific bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs) that are predictive of the particular feed additives used in these experiments. The results suggest that feed can influence microbiome composition in a predictable way, and thus diet may have indirect effects on weight gain and feed conversion through the microbiome.

Target Audience:Salmonellosis is one of the most common foodborne diseases with a range anywhere from 1 to 4 million human infections reported each year in the United States. Further, it is one of the more costly foodborne diseases in the U.S. Given that foodborne Salmonella spp. can originate from a wide variety of food production environments, reduction of this organism at all stages of food production is critical. This project's research program reflects an integrated approach for controlling Salmonella spp. and other foodborne pathogens by examining virulence expression of Salmonella under typical food production and processing conditions. Changes/Problems: Nothing Reported What opportunities for training and professional development has the project provided?Postdocs and graduate students continued training on molecular techniques including microbiome analyses. How have the results been disseminated to communities of interest?Sixteentalks were given by the PIto a wide range of audiences, locally and in national forums. What do you plan to do during the next reporting period to accomplish the goals?Conitnue research progress.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? Salmonella research: The overall goal of this study was to compare conventional plating with molecular methods for quantitating attached representative strains for Salmonella Typhimurium and Heidelberg on reusable plastic containers (RPC) coupons, respectively. We attached Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium ATCC 14028 and serovar Heidelberg SL486 (parent and an antibiotic resistant marker strain) to plastic coupons (2.54 cm squared) derived from previously used shipping containers by growing for 72 h in tryptic soy broth. The impact of the concentration of sanitizer on log reductions between unsanitized and sanitized coupons was evaluated by exposing attached S. Typhimurium cells to sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). Differences in sanitizer effectiveness between serovars were also evaluated with attached S. Typhimurium compared to attached S. Heidelberg populations after being exposed to peracetic acid (PAA). Treatment with NaClO caused an average of 2.73 log CFU of S. Typhimurium per coupon removed with treatment at 200 ppm while 3.36 log CFU were removed at higher (200,000) ppm. Treatment with PAA caused an average of 2.62 log CFU removed for S. Typhimurium and 1.41 log CFU for S. Heidelberg (parent) and 1.61 log CFU (marker). Lastly, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to visualize cell attachment and coupon surface topography. SEM images showed that remaining attached cell populations were visible even after sanitizer application. Conventional plating and qPCR yielded similar levels of enumerated bacterial populations indicating a high concordance between the two methods. Therefore, qPCR could be used for the rapid quantification of Salmonella attached on RPC. Prebiotics and gut microbiome: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference in microbial populations from naked neck chicken ceca fed with commercial prebiotics derived from brewer's yeast cell wall via an Illumina MiSeq platform. A total of 147 day-of-hatch naked neck chickens were distributed into 3 groups consisted of 1) C: control (no prebiotic), 2) T1: Biolex1 MB40 with 0.2%, and 3) T2: Leiber1 ExCel with 0.2%, consistently supplemented prebiotics during the experimental period. At 8 weeks, a total of 15 birds from each group were randomly selected and ceca removed for DNA extraction. The Illumina Miseq platform based on V4 region of 16S rRNA gene was applied for microbiome analysis. Both treatments exhibited limited impact on the microbial populations at the phylum level, with no significant differences in the OTU number of Bacteroidetes among groups and an increase of Proteobacteria OTUs for the T1 (Biolex1 MB40) group. In addition there was a significant increase of genus Faecalibacterium OTU, phylum Firmicutes. According to the development of next generation sequencing (NGS), microbiome analysis based on 16S rRNA gene proved to be informative on the prebiotic impact on poultry gut microbiota in pasture-raised naked neck birds.

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? Salmonella research: Theaims of this research were to compare the aerobic growth responses of selected predominant foodborne Salmonella serovars, and evaluate how the spent media from different serovars affects the growth of a well-characterized S. Typhimurium strain. Growth responses were similar for most strains in spent media except for S. Typhimurium (ATCC 14028), which exhibited a decrease in growth in the presence of S. Heidelberg (ARI-14) spent media. This research will provide a better understanding of the growth differences among several Salmonella serovars in nutrient limited spent media. Determining the compounds, and possibly the signals that are responsible for the inhibitory action of SH spent media on ST (ATCC 14028) will likely involve the assessment of SH genetically, as well as the compounds present in the spent media. Additionally, determining the genes expression levels that correlate with the inhibitory action will provide guidance to the underlying mechanisms and interactions between these two Salmonella strains, and potentially provide insight into the overall interactions among these Salmonella serovars. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first experiment that studies the effect of SH spent media on the growth response of ST, and whether or not there is a competitive interaction between these two serovars. Prebiotics and gut microbiome: Rice bran has been investigated for its prebiotic properties. A prebiotic has been defined as "a non-digestible food ingredient that beneficially affects the host by selectively stimulating the growth and/or activity of one or a limited number of bacteria in the colon". Several studies have demonstrated that Salmonella colonization in the animal gut can be reduced by inclusion of rice bran in the diet, which acts as a source of oligosaccharides for the promotion of anaerobic microorganisms in the lower gastrointestinal tract. These microbes are able to combat pathogens such as Salmonella that are often commensals in chicken and other poultry and that can contaminate chicken meat during evisceration at the meat packaging plant. We have recently compared inhibition of Salmonella by the bran fraction from several different cultivars of rice, including two grown in Arkansas, in an in vitro anaerobic mixed culture system (bioassay) that mimics conditions within the hindgut (ceca) of broiler chickens. Our results indicate that bran from Arkansas-grown purebred Lakast rice and from Calrose rice exhibit superior inhibition of Salmonella in comparison to the three other rice brans tested, Jasmine, RedWalls, and an Arkansas hybrid rice. The Arkansas-grown Lakast was similar in its ability to inhibit Salmonella as compared to a commercial prebiotic. The future goals of this research will be to screen additional Arkansas-grown rice varieties for the reduction of Salmonella in our in vitro system, and to test the best-performing varieties in a feeding trial with a Salmonella challenge in live chickens. .

Impacts
What was accomplished under these goals? 1) Salmonella virulence: Salmonella enterica with 1500 serovars has been considered as one of the most prominent foodborne pathogens in poultry industry. In last several years, the incidence of Salmonella Heidelberg was increased significantly in the USA and identified as one of the primary serovars associated with human illness. Although S. Heidelberg exhibits similar antigenic characteristics with S. Typhimurium one of the more common serovars in human diseases, S. Heidelberg has not been investigated nearly to the same extent. The aims of this research were to develop S. Heidelberg mutant library using transposon mutagenesis and identify essential genes for survival and virulence that could be used a potential targets for more effective intervention methods. Salmonella Heidelberg ARI-14 isolated from poultry was evaluated for ampicillin and kanamycin susceptibility prior to transposon mutant library construction because the EZ-Tn5 pMOD-6 plasmid DNA possesses both antibiotics genes as selection markers. The EZ-Tn5 pMOD-6 plasmid DNA was transformed to S. Heidelberg strain in advance to improve efficiency through host adaptation followed by development of a transposon mutant library. Salmonella Heidelberg ARI-14 strain was susceptible ampicillin (100 ug/ml) and kanamycin (60 ug/ml). The efficiency of EZ-Tn5 pMOD-6 plasmid DNA transformation to ARI-14 for host adaptation was 106 cells per ml. The excised transposon from host-adapted plasmid DNA was utilized for mutant library. The developed S. Heidelberg mutant library can be applied to various growth conditions like low pH and thermal stress to screen essential genes for survival and virulence. Identification of these genes will help to elucidate more effective control measures in food systems. 2) Salmonella metabolism: We hypothesized that growth responses will vary among Salmonella serovars grown in selective and nonselective growth media, and non-selective enrichment will be more efficient than selective enrichment for quantifying Salmonella serovars. In this study, we compared the non-selective enrichment medium Luria-Bertani (LB) to a selective-enrichment media (Tetrathionate (TT)) currently recommended by the USDA. One strain from each of the four most common poultry-associated Salmonella serovars (Typhimurium, Enteritidis, Heidelberg, and Kentucky) was tested. Approximately 100 colony forming units (CFU) of each strain were subsequently sub cultured in 100 mL of LB or TT broth, and incubated at 42°C for 24 h. At 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 h, subsamples of each medium were diluted and plated in duplicate on LB plates to determine CFU per mL. Among all serovars, there was a 2.07 ± 0.65 log increase in CFU/mL at 12 h, and a 3.33 ± 1.90 log increase in CFU/mL at 24 h of growth in TT. However, there was a 2.24 ± 0.46 log increase in CFU/mL at 4 h, a 6.97 ± 0.25 log increase in CFU/mL at 12 h, and a 7.70 ± 0.43 log increase in CFU/mL at 24 h. Determining the growth responses of various Salmonella serovars will be useful to not only improve enrichment and culture methodology, but also reduce the time it takes to quantify Salmonella with rapid nonculture-based detection methods. 3) Prebiotics and gut microflora: Previous studies have demonstrated that various substances containing complex carbohydrates, such as yeast extracts and rice bran, can have an inhibitory effect on pathogenic bacteria, such as Salmonella, by a so-called “prebiotic” effect. Prebiotics are believed to change the ecology of the hindgut microflora in ways that preclude colonization of the gut by pathogens. We have evaluated bran from different rice cultivars for a prebiotic effect, using an anaerobic in vitro system that combines prebiotics with microflora from the cecum (hindgut) of chickens, for inhibition of Salmonella. The ceca of chickens at 6 weeks of age were removed and placed in an anaerobic chamber. A 0.1 g portion of the cecal contents was diluted and placed in culture bottles with ground chicken feed with or without addition of rice bran at a concentration of 1% w/v. As a positive control,a known prebiotic (a yeast extract) was tested in parallel. Salmonella serovars were then added to each bottle, and the mixed cultures were grown anaerobically at 37 oC with shaking. These cultures were then evaluated for Salmonella survival at 0, 24, and 48 hours after addition of Salmonella. One of the three rice brans tested exhibited a rapid inhibition of Salmonella, which became undetectable after 24 h of culture time, exceeding the inhibition by the known prebiotic. Salmonella was still undetectable in this rice bran at 48 h, while theknown prebiotictreatment had low (50 CFU/ml) but detectable Salmonella. Short chain fatty acid (SCFA) analysis of supernatant from these mixed cultures indicated a ten-fold reduction in both propionic and butyric acid concentrations in the inhibitory rice bran compared to the negative control culture. These results contrasted with the effects ofknown prebioticon SCFA, indicating the development of distinct ecological interactions with Salmonella in response to these prebiotics.
