Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Food science
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Escherichia coli, Microbiology, Food science, Animal science and Feces. His Escherichia coli research is mostly focused on the topic Enterobacteriaceae. James J. Sheridan has included themes like Minced beef and Bacteria in his Microbiology study.

His study explores the link between Food science and topics such as Agar that cross with problems in Pathogen and Lysis. His Animal science research includes elements of Rumen, Food microbiology, Surgery and Salmonella. His Feces research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Veterinary medicine, Herd and Antimicrobial.

His most cited work include:

  • The survival characteristics of a non-toxigenic strain of Escherichia coli O157:H7. (157 citations)
  • The role of microbiological testing in systems for assuring the safety of beef. (126 citations)
  • The relationship between hide cleanliness and bacterial numbers on beef carcasses at a commercial abattoir (119 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Food science, Escherichia coli, Bacteria and Enterobacteriaceae. James J. Sheridan has researched Microbiology in several fields, including Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, Veterinary medicine, Minced beef and Agar. His Food science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Food spoilage, Food microbiology and Pathogen.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Inoculation, Feces, Fermentation, Biotechnology and Animal science. James J. Sheridan combines subjects such as Membrane and Chromatography with his study of Bacteria. His Enterobacteriaceae study combines topics in areas such as Nalidixic acid, Yersinia enterocolitica and Virulence.

  • Escherichia coli (26.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2012)?

  • Microbiology (44.37%)
  • Food science (38.41%)
  • Escherichia coli (26.49%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Food science, Escherichia coli, Salmonella and Enterobacteriaceae. His study on Feces and Serotype is often connected to Water activity as part of broader study in Microbiology. The Food science study combines topics in areas such as Food spoilage and Inoculation.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular biology, Caco-2 and Polymerase chain reaction in addition to Escherichia coli. His studies in Salmonella integrate themes in fields like Human decontamination, Food microbiology, Mesophile and Veterinary medicine. His Enterobacteriaceae study which covers Bacteria that intersects with Acridine orange and Standard plate.

Between 2005 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Prevalence and level of Escherichia coli O157 on beef trimmings, carcasses and boned head meat at a beef slaughter plant (64 citations)
  • A comparison of the survival in feces and water of Escherichia coli O157:H7 grown under laboratory conditions or obtained from cattle feces. (50 citations)
  • Effects of steam pasteurisation on Salmonella Typhimurium DT104 and Escherichia coli O157:H7 surface inoculated onto beef, pork and chicken (44 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Bacteria
  • Food science
  • Gene

James J. Sheridan mostly deals with Microbiology, Escherichia coli, Feces, Virulence and Enterobacteriaceae. His Microbiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Veterinary medicine and Food science.
