Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Tomi Obe's research program investigates strategies to control Salmonella contamination within poultry production systems. His work examines the antimicrobial tolerance and biofilm formation capabilities of Salmonella isolates, particularly those recovered from poultry processing equipment. Obe studies the molecular characteristics of these isolates to understand their persistence in processing environments. He also explores the effectiveness of various control measures, including feed additives and disinfection protocols, across the entire poultry production continuum, from the farm to the processing plant. His publications address methods for improved Salmonella risk profiling in broiler flocks and the competitive dynamics between different Salmonella strains during pre-enrichment processes. Obe collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station on these investigations.
