OverviewAI-generated summary
Tomi Obe's research focuses on controlling Salmonella contamination in poultry production. He investigates the antimicrobial tolerance, biofilm formation, and molecular characteristics of Salmonella isolates recovered from poultry processing equipment. His work also examines the effectiveness of sanitization procedures on reducing Salmonella prevalence on processing equipment and the impact of sublethal chlorine concentrations on the adaptation, antibiotic resistance, and biofilm-forming capabilities of Salmonella serovars. Obe also studies differences in biofilm formation across various Salmonella serovars under different environmental conditions and explores strategies for multi-hurdle control of Salmonella throughout the poultry production continuum, from feed and farm to the processing plant.
Obe has published 26 articles, accumulating over 400 citations and an h-index of 11. He collaborates with several researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Toluwanimi Ogundipe, C.M. Owens, Philip G. Crandall, and Tanmaie Kalapala.
