About the Author
Dr. Christopher J. Silva is a Research Chemist for the USDA-ARS at the Western Regional Research Center in Albany, California. He earned a Ph.D. degree in organic chemistry from Stanford University. His active area of research uses mass spectrometry to detect and quantify proteins, including Shiga toxins, other protein toxins and prions. He has authored or co-authored 70 scientific publications including peer reviewed papers, invited book chapters, proceedings and reviews
Dr. David L. Brandon received an A.B. from Harvard College and Ph.D. in biochemistry from Harvard University (Cambridge, MA, USA). He retired in 2016, after 37 years as Research Chemist with the USDA Agricultural Research Service, and has served in leadership and editorial positions in the field of analytical food safety. He is recognized for his research in the areas of toxins and anti-nutrients in food and feed and immunoanalysis of foodborne contaminants, including bacterial pathogens and drug and pesticide residues. His work has involved significant international collaborations, with applications to food safety, crop improvement, and food defense. Dr. Brandon is author/inventor of over 80 publications and patents, with several technologies licensed to industry.
Dr. Craig B. Skinner attended the University of California, San Diego to receive his B.S. in Biochemistry before attending the University of California, Davis for his Ph.D in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. He worked at the USDA for 5 years as a postdoctoral molecular biologist in the lab of Dr. Xiaohua He. He is currently employed by DiCE Molecules, LLC (Redwood City, CA). During his postdoctoral tenure, Dr. Skinner developed purification procedures and molecular tools for detection of toxins, particularly the Shiga toxins. He is the primary author or co-author of 13 papers in the food safety field and co-inventor of patented and licensed technology for Stx2f subtype-specific antibodies.
Dr. Xiaohua He is a Research Molecular Biologist in the Foodborne Toxin Detection and Prevention Research Unit at the Western Regional Research Center, USDA Agricultural Research Service, Albany, California. She received her Ph.D. in Plant Pathology from the University of California, Riverside, and had postdoctoral experience at Purdue and Cornell Universities. Her research focuses on development of molecular tools for sensitive detection of zoonotic pathogens and toxins in food, and environmental and clinical samples; investigation of toxin synthesis and novel mechanisms of host cell injury; and toxicokinetics. The 2015 Federal Laboratory Consortium, Far West Region, Outstanding Technology Development Award recognized her contribution to Improved Detection of Shiga Toxin through Monoclonal Antibodies. She is active in editorial positions and international collaborations, andis author/inventor of over 70 publications and patents, with 14 technologies licensed to industry."About the title" may belong to another edition of this title.
