One of the most important bioactive components breast milk are free oligosaccharides, which a source energy for commensal intestinal microorganisms, stimulating growth Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, and Bacteroides in child’s digestive tract. There is some evidence that maternal, perinatal, environmental-cultural factors influence modulation microbiome. This review summarizes research has examined composition microbiome may it. The manuscript highlights potential importance future...
Abstract Background Enteroccocus spp. are human opportunistic pathogens causing a variety of serious and life-threating infections in humans, including urinary tract infection, endocarditis, skin infection bacteraemia. Farm animals direct contact with them important sources Enterococcus faecalis (EFA) faecium (EFM) among farmers, veterinarians individuals working breeding farms abattoirs. The spread antibiotic-resistant strains is one the most public health concerns, as clinicians will be...
Listeria monocytogenes is a main etiological factor of listeriosis, spread mainly by food products. In recent years, an increasing number patients with listeriosis and augmentation in L. antibiotic resistance, e.g. to penicillin ampicillin, has been reported. The aim the study was characterise strains isolated from fish-processed Species identification, based on multiplex-PCR reaction, performed, genetic similarity isolates analysed RAPD technique. strains, form planktonic cells biofilm,...
Listeria monocytogenes is a one of the most important food-borne pathogens. Its ability to form biofilm contributes increased resistance disinfectants and inefficient disinfection, posing serious threat for food industry, in end consumer. The aim this study was comparison formation L. strains on stainless steel, under different environmental conditions (temperature, pH, NaCl concentration, nutrients availability), assessment susceptibility disinfectants. bactericidal activity four two...
Introduction Listeria monocytogenes are Gram-positive, non-spore-producing rods that the etiological agent of listeriosis. L. is isolated from soil, water, sewage, rotting vegetation, and main source these for humans food (fish, unpasteurized dairy products, or raw fruits vegetables). In recent years, there has been an increase in consumer interest healthy food, especially organically grown. The use natural fertilizers during organic farming can be a pathogens, including soil finally...
(1) Background: Improper disinfection of slurry and municipal wastewater poses a serious threat to public health. These fluids are reservoirs viruses, bacteria, fungi parasites. (2) Methods: This study aimed evaluate, on laboratory scale, the effectiveness fine bubble aeration with air activated by radiant catalytic ionization (RCI) against Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Salmonella Senftenberg W775, Listeria monocytogenes, Clostridioides difficile, Aspergillus niger Ascaris suum...
The aim of this study was to perform the phenotypic and genotypic evaluation Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated from fish equipment used in processing plants. prevalence selected gene-encoding virulence factors among L. assessed by multiplex PCR. genetic (PFGE method) protein similarities (MALDI-TOF MS technique) isolates were determined. Their drug resistance (disk-diffusion method MIC values), serogroup classification (multiplex-PCR), ability co-aggregate with Salmonella enteritidis...
Since bacterial biofilm may contribute to the secondary contamination of food during manufacturing/processing stage there is a need for new methods allowing its effective eradication. Application additives such as vitamin C already used in industry antioxidant antioxidants be promising solution. The aim this research was evaluation impact (ascorbic acid), range concentrations 2.50 µg mL
Introduction This study aimed to identify the characteristics of Campylobacter isolated from wild birds (Black-headed gulls Chroicocephalus ridibundus and Great tits Parus major) collect surface water samples (from rivers, ponds, ornamental lakes, freshwater beaches). Research material included 33 isolates. All strains were by different monitoring surveillance plans. Methods The prevalence selected genes (flaA, cadF, iam, cdtB, wlaN, sodB, tet0) encoding virulence factors resistance among...
The human milk (HM) microbiome is variable and depends on maternal, perinatal, cultural–environmental factors. diversity of the HM crucial in development child. aim study was to assess prevalence bacteria (using culture-based methods) Polish women with normal BMI, giving birth time through vaginal delivery. Methods: research material consisted swabs from areola nipple, before after breastfeeding, derived (n = 86). Classic culture methods were used obtain multiple bacteria. Species...
Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) are common outpatient and inpatient infections, often treated with empirical therapy. Enterococcus spp. is responsible for about 10% of UTIs. This study aimed to determine the necessity changing treatment UTIs caused by The evaluation was performed 542 strains isolated from urine samples in years 2016-2021. We identified three species that were found: E. faecalis (389, 71.8%), faecium (151, 27.8%) gallinarum (2, 0.4%). dominant every year. Among faecalis, most...
Abstract Background Listeria monocytogenes are Gram-positive rods, which the etiological factor of listeriosis . L. quickly adapts to changing environmental conditions. Since main source rods is food, its elimination from production line a priority. The study aimed evaluate influence selected stress factors on growth and survival strains isolated food products clinical material. Results We distinguished fifty genetically different (PFGE method). Sixty-two percent tested represented 1/2a-3a...
