ABSTRACT: Bacillus cereus is an aerobic and facultatively anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium, it found naturally in soil poses a risk factor for the contamination of food foodstuffs including cereals, vegetables, spices, ready-to-eat (RTE) foods, meats, milk, dairy products. This study determined prevalence B. raw poultry meat, cow’s cheese, RTE foods Hatay province. The also analysed psychrotrophic properties, toxigenic characteristics, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) profiles...
Emergence of pathogens harboring tigecycline resistance genes incurs great concerns. Wastewater is recognized as the important reservoir antimicrobial genes. Here we characterized phenotypes and genotypes bacteria carrying tet(X4) from wastewater in Turkey for first time. Four tet(X4)-positive Escherichia coli isolates were identified by PCR, Sanger sequencing, susceptibility testing, conjugation assays, Illumina nanopore sequencing bioinformatic analysis. tet(X4)-harboring...
The study aimed to investigate the role of cattle slaughterhouse wastewater as a possible source for environmental distribution Listeria monocytogenes.Listeria spp. isolation was performed by collecting 117 samples from four different slaughterhouses in Turkey. Species-specific identification biochemically, and L. monocytogenes isolates were confirmed with polymerase chain reaction (PCR). In all, 71 (62.2%) found be positive spp., 17 (14.9%) these contaminated monocytogenes. Pulsed field gel...
Summary The study aimed to assess Campylobacter jejuni prevalence in chicken meat, biofilm formation, virulence factors, antibiotic resistance, and molecular typing. In the study, 200 meat samples were collected from local outlets 51 (25.5%) isolates identified as C. . Resistance rates ampicillin, tetracycline, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, ciprofloxacin 59%, 60%, 64%, 64% respectively. Many of (49%) exhibited multidrug resistance. Beta‐lactamase tetracycline resistance genes found 82.3%...
1. The Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a hazardous zoonotic agent for chicken meat consumers. This study determined the serogroups and evaluated virulence genes, antibiotic resistance, biofilm-forming profiles genetic relationships of STEC isolates in meat.2. A total 100 samples belonging to dressed-whole different parts (wing, breast, thigh, drumstick) were collected between September November 2019 from retail markets Kayseri, Türkiye.3. Phenotypic (identification, disc...
2000’li yıllardan önce gıdalardaki biyolojik tehlikeler endişe yaratırken kimyasal endüstrisindeki atılımlar tehlikeleri ön plana taşımıştır. İkinci dünya savaşından sonra kullanımı kırılmaz biberondan, ev eşyasına ve yemek servisine kadar hayatın her alanında yaygınlaşmıştır. Günlük hayatımızda kullandığımız eşyaların yapısında 80 binden fazla bulunmaktadır. Bu kimyasalların çoğu halk sağlığı açısından henüz test edilmiş değildir. Kimyasallara; “aksi kanıtlanmadığı sürece masumdur”...
The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency Campylobacter species, detect antibiotic resistance profiles and virulence genes determine clonal proximity isolates in samples cutting board, slaughterhouse waste water, wall, knife carcass from three different slaughterhouses Kayseri region. For purpose, a total 150 samples, 10 each knife, smear sample wastewater were collected types 2018 Kayseri. isolation following preenrichment, suspensions inoculated onto modified charcoal...
Abstract Aliarcobacter spp. have has been isolated from numerous food products at retail and animal carcasses feces slaughter. The objectives of this study were: i) to isolate species ( butzleri , skirrowii cryaerophilus ) different slaughterhouses’ samples, ii) detect genetic diversity, antibiotic resistance, biofilm ability putative virulence gene profiles the isolates. susceptibility antimicrobials was examined using Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion method. A molecular investigation resistance...
