Rapid molecular techniques for detection of foodborne Bacillus cereus pathogen
Background and Objective: Bacillus cereus is responsible for several outbreaks of foodborne diseases. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to replace routine culture testing, by employing PCR directly from food to detect the bacteria and its enterotoxins. Methods: In the present study, a total of 75 Kibda sandwiches, Sausage sandwiches, Luncheon chicken, Luncheon meat and shawarma sandwiche...
متن کاملTetracycline and oxytetracycline resistance determinants detected in Bacillus cereus strains isolated from honey samples.
The aim of this study was to investigate the presence of tetracycline and oxytetracycline resistance determinants in Bacillus cereus strains isolated from honey samples. Of a total of 77 isolates analyzed, 30 (39%) exhibited resistance to tetracyclines according to the results of a disk diffusion method. Resistant strains (n=30) were screened by PCR for the presence of the resistant determinant...
متن کاملDetection of tetracycline resistance determinant tetA gene and antimicrobial resistance pattern in Escherichia coli isolates recovered from healthy layer chickens
Aim: The aim was to study the occurrence of tetracycline resistance determinant tetA gene, and antibacterial resistance pattern in commensal Escherichia coli recovered from healthy non-clinical layer chickens. Materials and Methods: Twenty-four cloacal swabs were obtained from 15 flocks in five different layer farms located at around Namakkal, which is a place of high-intensity layer chicken re...
متن کاملGenetic organization and distribution of tetracycline resistance determinants in Clostridium perfringens.
The Tet P determinant from the conjugative Clostridium perfringens R plasmid pCW3 two functional overlapping tetracycline resistance genes, tetA(P) and tetB(P). The tetA(P) gene encodes a putative 46-kDa transmembrane protein which mediates active efflux of tetracycline from the cell, while tetB(P) encodes a putative 72.6-kDa protein which has significant similarity to Tet M-like tetracycline r...
متن کاملPlasmid-encoded Tet B tetracycline resistance in Haemophilus parasuis.
The complete sequence of two plasmids, pHS-Tet (5.1 kb) and pHS-Rec (9.5 kb), isolated from Haemophilus parasuis strain HS1543 has been obtained. Plasmid pHS-Tet contains four open reading frames including a tet(B) tetracycline resistance gene which unusually did not have an associated tetR repressor gene. From a total of 45 H. parasuis isolates surveyed (15 international reference strains, 15 ...
