Quantification of Escherichia coli Transfer from Plastic Mulch to Field-grown Tomatoes and Bell Peppers by Autumn R. Burnett, Faith Critzer, Timothy Coolong

“…Field environmental conditions throughout the experiment such as ambient air temperature, relative humidity, UVAB radiation intensity, and surface temperature of plastic likely affected the rates of bacterial transfer. While other studies have evaluated bacterial survival and transfer from mulch to fruit in a laboratory setting, the present study addresses knowledge gaps in bacterial transfer during drooping and dropping incidents in the field when fruit contacts plastic mulch, providing results that have potential to inform future regulatory guidance for produce harvest and handling.…”
