OverviewAI-generated summary

Joel H. Metcalf's research has primarily focused on interventions to reduce Campylobacter jejuni colonization in broiler chickens. His work has investigated the efficacy of the natural feed additive caprylic acid, including its administration through feed and water, in decreasing bacterial presence in market-aged chickens. Metcalf has also explored the impact of caprylic acid on cecal microbial populations and its potential as a therapeutic supplement. Further research has examined the role of bacterial biofilm phenotypes in colonization and virulence, as well as the development of probiotic cultures targeting Campylobacter jejuni motility. Metcalf has authored or co-authored 88 publications, with a total of 284 citations, and holds an h-index of 6. His collaborators at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville include Joe Edward Hatfield, T. Jake Dionne, and Nabiha Khetani.
