Overview

Mickaël Desvaux is affiliated with the University of Clermont Auvergne in France and has a research focus centered on Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology as well as Agricultural and Biological Sciences. Their body of work spans several subfields including Endocrinology, Food Science, Biotechnology, Molecular Biology, and Infectious Diseases.

Their research topics are diverse and primarily emphasize studies related to Escherichia coli, probiotics and fermented foods, and food safety concerning Listeria monocytogenes. Additional areas of expertise include bacteriophages and microbial interactions, viral gastroenteritis research and epidemiology, bacterial genetics and biotechnology, along with the study of essential oils and antimicrobial activity.

Mickaël Desvaux has collaborated frequently with several co-authors, notably Sabine Léroy, Valentin Ageorges, Nelly Caccia, Mariagrazia Pizza, and Panagiotis Sapountzis. These collaborations suggest a research network engaged in microbiology and related fields.

The primary venues for their publications include Frontiers in Microbiology, Journal of Proteomics, Food Microbiology, HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe), and Antioxidants.

Among their recent papers are the following:

  • Pathogenicity Factors of Genomic Islands in Intestinal and Extraintestinal Escherichia coli, 2020, Frontiers in Microbiology
  • Antioxidants of Fruit Extracts as Antimicrobial Agents against Pathogenic Bacteria, 2022, Antioxidants
  • An Overview of the Elusive Passenger in the Gastrointestinal Tract of Cattle: The Shiga Toxin Producing Escherichia coli, 2020, Microorganisms
  • Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Activity on LPS-Stimulated RAW 264.7 Macrophage Cells of White Mulberry (Morus alba L.) Leaf Extracts, 2023, Molecules
  • Molecular determinants of surface colonisation in diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli(DEC): from bacterial adhesion to biofilm formation, 2020, FEMS Microbiology Reviews
