Crohn's colitis and ileorectal anastomosis
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The marine bacterium Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a known cause of gastroenteritis from seafoods, especially abroad,1011 also occurs in British coastal waters12-though only one incident traced to home-produced crabmeat has been reported.13 The vibrio is often present in imported crustacea, especially shrimps and prawns from the Far East, and these have been reponsible for some recent incidents.14 Though this organism may multiply rapidly, even at low temperatures, it is fully sensitive to heat: as with most microbial pathogens control thus lies in sound hygienic practice during and after processing. The consumption of any food raw inevitably carries some risks to health, and shellfish are no exception. Adequate heat treatment would, however, overcome most of them. Perhaps further education in cooking and eating these interesting foods is needed-who's for oyster or mussel pie ?

It is ...
