Probiotic engineering: towards development of robust probiotic strains with enhanced functional properties and for targeted control of enteric pathogens
Abstract There is a growing concern about the increase in human morbidity and mortality caused by foodborne pathogens. Antibiotics were and still are used as the first line of defense against these pathogens, but an increase in the development of bacterial antibiotic resistance has led to a need for...
