OverviewAI-generated summary
Abhinav Upadhyay's research focuses on food safety microbiology, investigating host-pathogen interactions and host physiology. His work aims to develop non-antibiotic strategies for controlling foodborne pathogens in food animals, processing environments, and food products. These strategies include the use of phytochemicals, probiotics, and bacteriophages.
Upadhyay employs a range of methodologies, including traditional and molecular microbiology, transcriptomics, microbiome analysis, and metabolomics. His recent publications demonstrate this focus, detailing the inactivation of pathogens such as *Listeria monocytogenes* and *Salmonella Enteritidis* using nanoemulsions of compounds like eugenol and trans-cinnamaldehyde on food products and shelled eggs. He also investigates the molecular mechanisms underlying host resistance, such as the modulation of chicken macrophage proteins by sodium butyrate in response to *Salmonella Enteritidis*.
With an h-index of 26 and over 115 publications, Upadhyay has contributed to the field of food safety and microbial control. His research network includes collaborators from the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station and the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. He maintains an active laboratory website to disseminate his work.
