Bifidobacteria as indicators of faecal contamination along a sheep meat production chain.
AIMS The potential use of bifidobacteria as indicators for faecal contamination was studied along a sheep meat production and processing chain. The levels of bifidobacteria were compared with those of Escherichia coli. Total viable counts were followed along the chain (244 samples). METHODS AND RESULTS Forty-three per cent of the samples contained bifidobacteria, of which 15% were solely dete...
متن کاملFRNA Bacteriophages as Viral Indicators of Faecal Contamination in Mexican Tropical Aquatic Systems
A particular challenge to water safety in populous intertropical regions is the lack of reliable faecal indicators to detect microbiological contamination of water, while the numerical relationships of specific viral indicators remain largely unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the numerical relationships of FRNA-bacteriophage genotypes, adenovirus 41, and human adenoviruses (H...
متن کاملDetection of somatic coliphages as indicators of faecal contamination in estuarine waters.
The appearance of enteric disease outbreaks associated with the use of waters considered bacteriologically suitable, calls for the search of new and more precise indicators. Samples of estuarine water were collected in order to quantify E. coil and E. coil ATCC 13706 somatic coliphages and to compare the usefulness of the latter to detect faecal contamination when the concentration of tradition...
متن کاملContamination of Bovine, Sheep and Goat Meat with Brucella Spp.
A study was conducted in order to evaluate the contamination by Brucella spp. of meat from animals slaughtered because they had resulted positive for brucellosis at some time during their life. After slaughter and before delivery to market outlets, swab samples were taken from 307 carcasses of infected animals: 40 cattle, 60 sheep and 207 goats. The swabs were subsequently analysed by means of ...
متن کاملDynamic of Campylobacter Species Contamination Along a Poultry Slaughtering Chain
The prevalence of Campylobacters was studied in a poultry farm and along the slaughtering chain. Fifteen swabs from a farm and 75 samples (swabs and rinsates) from its slaughterhouse were collected. All the faecal and cloacal farm swabs were contaminated by Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli against 50% for breast swabs. C. jejuni had a concentration of 6.26, 6.34 and 5.38 Log10 CFU/mL in faecal,...
