• Considering Plant-Based Meat Substitutes and Cell-Based Meats: A Public Health and Food Systems Perspective (2020, background): “Pathogens of animal origin can enter the food supply via multiple pathways, such as if manure is transported via runoff onto nearby produce fields or contaminates water sources used for irrigation (Solomon et al., 2002; Erickson and Doyle, 2012).”
• Recent Trends in Microbiological Safety of Fruits and Vegetables (2003, background): “coli O157:H7 from manurecontaminated soil and irrigation water to lettuce plants, and its migration throughout the plant were recently reported (41,46).”
• Factors influencing the microbial safety of fresh produce: a review. (2012, methodology): “coli O157:H7 internalized at depths of 20 mme100 mm below the external surfaces of produce (Beuchat and Ryu, 1997; Solomon et al., 2002).”
• Ecology of E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella enterica in the Primary Vegetable Production Chain (2008, background): “Several studies demonstrated the association of E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella with vegetable surfaces when grown in soils enriched with contaminated manure (Natvig et al. 2002; Solomon et al. 2002; Islam et al. 2004a; Islam et al. 2004b).”
• Irrigation Waters as a Source of Pathogenic Microorganisms in Produce (2011, background): “coli could be transported into the edible part of lettuce from soil through root system (Solomon et al., 2002b), or that Salmonella Newport could be transported from contaminated roots to the aerial parts of Romaine lettuce seedlings depending on the developmental stage of the plant (Bernstein et al”
• Survival of Escherichia coli in the environment: fundamental and public health aspects (2011, background): “coli coming from soil, manure, irrigation water (”
