Occurrence of Salmonella sp. and coagulase-positive staphylococci in raw eggs and Coalho cheese: comparative study between two cities of Brazil’s northeast
نویسندگان
چکیده
Microbiological analyses of chicken eggs in Recife and Salvador have shown a high occurrence of Salmonella in the egg shells and yolks. Likewise, the occurrence of Salmonella plus coagulase-positive staphylococci in Coalho cheese reached alarming levels. The data revealed a significant risk of infections and intoxications from consuming these foods in the cities.

Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) are exoproteins which, when produced in food that is then ingested by humans, give rise to symptoms of acute gastroenteritis [2]. Several types of staphylococcal enterotoxins have been identified on a serological basis and are named SE A through U (SEA through SEU) with SEA to SEE being the most frequently encountered due to there detection by usual standard ki...

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are often associated with bovine mastitis and may be resistant to antimicrobial therapy. The aim of the current study was to investigate the presence of blaZ (responsible for penicillin resistance) and mecA (responsible for methicillin resistance) genes among 108 CoNS belonging to 9 different species isolated from bovine mastitis in seven dairy herds (H1-...
