Antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties of <i>Maranta arundinacea</i> extract against <i>Campylobacter jejuni</i> and <i>Campylobacter coli</i> in T84 cells.

ABSTRACT: Campylobacter, a bacterium commonly found in the chicken gut, is the leading cause of bacterial foodborne gastroenteritis globally. Despite various interventions aimed at controlling Campylobacter in the food chain, such as enhanced biosecurity measures, improved hygiene practices and farm-level controls, reducing its prevalence remains a significant challenge. While the European Union's (EU) 2006 ban on antimicrobials as growth promoters was primarily intended to control antimicrobial resistance, its impact on Campylobacter load has been limited. The emergence of antibiotic-resistant Campylobacter has created a requirement to develop alternative methods to improve food safety, enhance performance and mitigate pathogenic bacteria. This study explored the potenti
