Study on the Viable but Non-culturable (VBNC) State Formation of Staphylococcus aureus and Its Control in Food System.

abstract：:Chagas disease is one of the prevalent neglected tropical diseases, affecting at least 6-7 million individuals in Latin America. It is caused by the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi, which is transmitted to vertebrate hosts by blood-sucking insects. After infection, the parasite invades and multiplies in the myoca...
