Rapid screening test for enterotoxin-producing Bacillus cereus.
نویسنده
چکیده
Culture supernatants of 30 enterotoxin-producing Bacillus cereus isolates produced a characteristic progressive destruction of McCoy cell monolayers. Enterotoxin-negative B. cereus and other group 1 Bacillus spp. caused no monolayer disruption. The McCoy cell tissue culture system appears to provide a rapid screening assay for detection of enterotoxin-producing B. cereus.

Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies against the hemolysin BL enterotoxin complex produced by Bacillus cereus.
A total of five hybridoma cell lines that produced monoclonal antibodies against the components of the hemolysin BL (HBL) enterotoxin complex and sphingomyelinase produced by Bacillus cereus were established and characterized. Monoclonal antibody 2A3 was specific for the B component, antibodies 1A12 and 8B12 were specific for the L(2) component, and antibody 1C2 was specific for the L(1) protei...
متن کاملPresenting a rapid method for detection of Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes and Campylobacter jejuni in food samples
Objective(s): Listeria monocytogens, Bacillus cereus and Campylobacter jejuni are three toxin producing bacteria over the world, especially in Iran, and it is essential to find a certain, rapid procedure to identify these microorganisms. In this research, these bacteria were simultaneously detected by multiplex PCR technique in foods. Materials and Methods: The primary approval of bacterial str...
متن کاملInhibition of bacterial growth, enterotoxin production, and spore outgrowth in strains of Bacillus cereus by bacteriocin AS-48.
Bacteriocin AS-48 showed high bactericidal activity for mesophilic and psychrotrophic strains of Bacillus cereus over a broad pH range. AS-48 inhibition of the enterotoxin-producing strain LWL1 was enhanced by sodium nitrite, sodium lactate, and sodium chloride. The latter also enhanced AS-48 activity against strain CECT 131. Bacterial growth and enterotoxin production by strain LWL1 were compl...
متن کاملGrowth of enterotoxin producing Bacillus cereus in meat substrate at 10ºC and 30ºC
The behaviour of enterotoxin-producing Bacillus cereus in meat was investigated by inoculating spore suspensions of five cultures into meat substrate (pH 5.8) and incubating at 10ºC and 30ºC. The bacterial populations were evaluated after different times by plate counts in nutrient agar. All the cultures presented growth at 30ºC with the generation time varying from 28.8 to 36.0 minutes. Three ...
متن کاملDetection of Hemolysin BL Gene of Bacillus cereus Isolates
Hemolysin BL (HBL) is the multi-component enterotoxin causing diarrheal type of Bacillus cereus food poisoning. The hbl operon of B. cereus was divided into 4 coding sequences (CDS) and identified as hblC, hblD, hblA and hblB genes consisting of 1,319, 1,221, 1,128 and 1,401 nucleotides encoding proteins of 439, 406, 375 and 466 amino acids with predicted sizes of 49.3, 43.8, 41.7 and 52.3 kDa,...
