Biofilms are a common cause of food contamination with undesirable bacteria, such as pathogenic bacteria. Staphylococcus aureus is one of the major bacteria causing food-borne diseases in humans. A study designed to determine the presence of S. aureus on food contact surfaces in dairy, meat, and seafood environments and to identify coexisting microbiota has therefore been carried out. A total o...

The Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) system prevents manages physical, chemical biological risks at places where foods beverages are processed, packaged, distributed consumed. present study (1) assessed the level of microbial contamination food contact surfaces using adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-bioluminescence in Iraq restaurants; (2) investigated surfaces; (3) evaluated eff...

some of pathogenic and food spoilage bacteria can attach on food contact surfaces and form a biofilm, the source of contamination of foods. biofilm is a functional consortium of microorganisms attached to the surface and is embedded in the extracellular polymeric substances (eps) produced by the microorganisms. biofilms due to special structure and eps are more resistant to antimicrobial agents...

Microorganisms are present on many surfaces in foodservice operations (3,7) but juice dispenser tips are among those showing the highest total microbial counts (3). Tips dispensing other beverages (e.g., acidic carbonated beverages such as cola) were less prone to contamination than were those dispensing fruit juices (11). Although high total microbial counts alone do not indicate a food safety...
