Effects of high-pressure processing on Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts in ground pork.
Ingestion of Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts can result in severe disease in immunocompromised individuals and pregnant women. Treatment of meat and meat products to eliminate viable T. gondii tissue cysts would provide a means to protect consumers. In this study, we examined the effects of high-pressure processing (HPP) on ground pork containing viable tissue cysts of the VEG strain of T. gondi...
متن کاملEffects of time and temperature on the viability of Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts in enhanced pork loin.
Enhanced or pumped pork products represent a significant proportion (40 to 50%) of the commercially available pork cuts available to consumers at the retail level. In a previous study, pork loins containing viable Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts were pumped with solutions containing 2% sodium chloride or 1.4% or higher potassium or sodium lactate and stored at 4 degrees C for 7 days. This treatm...
متن کاملEffect of commonly used enhancement solutions on the viability of Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts in pork loin.
Retail meat cuts of pork are frequently enhanced with salt solutions to improve flavor and texture and to extend shelf life through reductions in microbial contamination. A study of the effect of commonly used meat enhancement solutions on the viability of Toxoplasma gondii tissue cysts was performed using tissues from experimentally infected mice and pigs. Brains of T. gondii-infected mice wer...
متن کامل[Cryopreservation of Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites and tissue cysts].
Toxoplasma gondii tachyzoites and tissue cysts are largely used for developing diagnostic assays, vaccines and in drug research as well as biochemical and molecular structure studies. Continuous passaging of tachyzoites or tissue cysts in animal models encounter ethical and economical problems and it is a time consuming procedure. Cryopreservation of tachyzoites and tissue cysts and revitalizat...
متن کاملLong-term persistence of Toxoplasma gondii in tissues of pigs inoculated with T gondii oocysts and effect of freezing on viability of tissue cysts in pork.
To study the distribution of tissue cysts in porcine tissues, 16 pigs were fed oocysts of 4 strains of Toxoplasma gondii (4 pigs/strain). Pigs were euthanatized between postinoculation days 103 and 875 and portions of 5 to 14 organs were bioassayed in mice and/or cats for T gondii. For bioassays, 50- to 100-g portions of tissue were incubated in acidic pepsin solution to free bradyzoites from c...
