© 2019, The Author(s). Bacteriophages can be used successfully to treat pathogenic bacteria in the food chain including zoonotic pathogens that colonize the intestines of farm animals. However, harsh gastric conditions of low pH and digestive enzyme... Read More about Encapsulation of E. coli phage ZCEC5 in chitosan-alginate beads as a delivery system in phage therapy.

Understanding “corruption” in regulatory agencies: The case of food inspection in Saudi Arabia (2019)
Journal Article
Al-Mutairi, S., Connerton, I., & Dingwall, R. (2019). Understanding “corruption” in regulatory agencies: The case of food inspection in Saudi Arabia. Regulation and Governance, 13(4), 507-519. https://doi.org/10.1111/rego.12247

Corruption is a relatively neglected topic in studies of regulatory agencies. The label is applied to a wide range of deviations from behavioral standards ultimately derived from Weber's account of the ideals of Prussian bureaucracy. This paper draws...
