Employer: Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education
Expires: 05/17/2026
Application Deadline 6/19/2026 3:00:00 PM Eastern Time ZoneDescription *Applications are reviewed on a rolling-basis.ARS Office/Lab and Location: A research opportunity is currently available with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Agricultural Research Service (ARS), Eastern Regional Research Center, Microbial and Chemical Food Safety Research Unit (MCFS), located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.The Agricultural Research Service (ARS) is the U.S. Department of Agriculture's chief scientific in-house research agency with a mission to find solutions to agricultural problems that affect Americans every day from field to table. ARS will deliver cutting-edge, scientific tools and innovative solutions for American farmers, producers, industry, and communities to support the nourishment and well-being of all people; sustain our nation’s agroecosystems and natural resources; and ensure the economic competitiveness and excellence of our agriculture. The vision of the agency is to provide global leadership in agricultural discoveries through scientific excellence.Eastern Regional Research Center (ERRC) conducts fundamental, applied and developmental research on a broad spectrum of agricultural commodities with the following major thrusts: i) chemical and microbial food safety and food preservation technologies, ii) sustainable bioenergy and agricultural practices, iii) advanced dairy and food processing technologies, iv) edible films and active packaging technologies, v) bioactive ingredients and functional foods, and vi) biobased products. At ERRC, we strive to develop new knowledge and technologies, and we transfer our scientific discoveries to stakeholders and clients in both private and public sectors through strategic partnerships. The mission of ERRC Microbial and Chemical Food Safety Research Unit is to conduct research to reduce foodborne illness and chemical contaminants by developing effective and environment-friendly intervention technologies and treatments. The USDA ARS MCFS research unit is located in Eastern Regional Research Center (ERRC) in the suburb of Philadelphia, PA. Research Project: The microbial safety of fresh produce continues to be a major concern in the United States. Therefore, reducing the risk associated with foodborne pathogens in fresh produce is extremely important to public health. Traditionally, fresh produce industry relies on flume systems to sanitize fresh and fresh-cut fruits and vegetables to eliminate pathogens on the surface in packinghouses. However, washing fresh produce may result in pathogen cross contamination of fresh produce when the effective concentrations of sanitizer (often chlorine) in the flumes are not maintained. The objectives of the project are to study the antimicrobial efficacy of cold plasma-activated antimicrobial aerosol as an overhead spray system, and investigate quality changes of treated fresh produce during storage. Inoculated pathogens and spoilage microorganisms along with food quality attributes will be monitored during processing and storage of fresh produce in response to chemical, and physical interventions.During the appointment, you will contribute by examining issues related to post-harvest intervention technologies against foodborne pathogens on fresh and fresh-cut produce. You will also assist in designing and conducting all aspects of the experiment under the direction of ARS scientists. This includes evaluation of the survival of various foodborne pathogens on selected fresh and fresh-cut produce items as affected by advance oxidation processing, and storage. Furthermore, changes in quality parameters of fresh produce such as texture, color and nutrients will be determined and data will be analyzed using statistical tools.Learning Objectives: During the appointment, you will have the opportunity to learn;Methods to inoculate and isolate bacterial pathogens from various fresh produce items, and estimation of bacterial injury and survival.Various techniques to analyze food quality attributes to evaluate the feasibility of advanced oxidation processing.Statistical analysis techniques if desired, and gain experience with conducting multi-disciplinary project.Designing and theory of cold plasma and advanced oxidation processing, and their applications on food safety-related areas.Knowledge, skills, and abilities related to microbiological analyses and shelf-life of food.You will also have the benefit of networking with and learning from contacts and the scientists researching on these projects.
