We tested the predation of B. bacteriovorus against Escherichia coli in milk samples three different experiments. In Experiment 1, growth and predatory activity E. stored at 4°C were evaluated. 2, matrix was compared to optimal one medium choice. 3, influence native microbial community on experimentally added or indigenous grown tested. The predator increased by about 1 Log first 48 hours caused decrease 2 after 24 hours. 30°C reduced faster (3 6 hours) than (2 hours). preyed more nutrient...
The spread of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli is a major public health issue. Bivalves are filter-feeder animals capable bioaccumulating the microorganisms present in water. This physiological characteristic makes them both good indicators environmental contamination and possible carriers pathogenic bacteria, including those resistant to antimicrobials. aim this study was investigate occurrence ESBL-producing E. clams (n = 308) collected from harvesting areas...
Summary Bdellovibrio bacteriovorus is a predator micro‐organism towards other Gram‐negative bacteria. We tested B. to control Escherichia coli growth on chicken slices and canned beef. Moreover, we analysed bacteriovorus's lytic ability eight toxigenic or multidrug‐resistant E. strains. In slices, the induced highest prey reduction (4.3 log) respect at 6 h. beef, (2.1 showed all could pathogenic spoilage bacteria in those meat‐based foods that have shelf life <10 days. It integrate...
In the present study, we searched Halobacteriovorax strain preying upon Salmonella from seawater of Adriatic Sea. The strain, named M7, was identified using 16S rRNA analysis. M7 predation efficiency tested against different and non-Salmonella strains, all isolated food matrices obtained Finally, exposed to enterica subsp. serovar Napoli in challenge tests evaluate killing this specific prey over time. Double -layer agar plating technique used enumerate its host specificity efficiency. 103...
This research aimed to study the abundance and molecular diversity of Vibrio parahaemolyticus-specific Halobacteriovorax strains isolated from seawater Adriatic Sea relationship between predator prey abundances. Moreover, efficiency isolates toward V. parahaemolyticus cholerae non-O1/O139 was tested. NCTC 10885 used as primary host for isolation by plaque assay. Molecular identification performed PCR detection a fragment 16S rRNA gene Halobacteriovoraceae family members. 700 bp products were...
