| Summary: | Foodborne pathogens of Enterobacteriaceae including Escherichia coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Yersinia, etc., causes a great number of diseases and has a significant impact on human health. Here, we reviewed the prevalence, virulence, and antimicrobial susceptibility of Enterobacteriaceae belonging to 4 genera: E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, and Yersinia. The routes of the pathogens’ transmission in the food chain; the antimicrobial resistance, genetic diversity, and molecular epidemiology of the Enterobacteriaceae strains; novel technologies for detection of the bacterial communities (such as the molecular marker-based methods, Immunoaffinity based detection, etc.); and the controlling of the foodborne pathogens using chemical/natural compounds or physical methods (such as UV-C and pulsed-light treatment, etc.), is also summarized. |
