The Contamination Rate of Industrial Fruit Juices Supplied in Kerman City with Gram-Positive Cocci Bacteria in 2015:A Short Report
Authors
Abstract:
Background and Objectives: Some bacteria have the ability to survive in juice after pasteurization. The aim of this study was to evaluate the contamination rate of industrial juices with grampositive bacteria via microbial culture. Materials and Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on 165 samples of 25 different brands of beer. The specimens were incubated in blood agar medium for 48 hours; then the grown colonies were counted. Data were analyzed using independent t-test. Results: Contamination with gram-positive cocci was reported in the pasteurized juices with an average of 6.84± 4.36 (cfu/mL) and in the unpasteurized juices with an average of 5.24± 3.03(cfu /mL). Conclusion: According to the results, pasteurized juices were highly contaminated and it can be due to lack of proper pasteurization by different brands of juices. Key words: Industrial fruit juices, Gram-positive cocci, Bacterial contamination, Kerman Funding: This research was funded by Research Committee of Kerman University of Medical Sciences. Conflict of interest: None declared. Ethical [j1] approval: The Ethics Committee of Kerman University of Medical Sciences approved the study.

Extracts and juices of cultivated and wild fruits belonging to the families Rosaceae, Grossulariaceae, Moraceae, Berberidaceae, Polygonaceae, Caprifoliaceae and Cornaceae were examined for their growth reducing activity on four bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, B. cereus var. mycoides, Escherichia coli and Serratia marcescens). In vitro antibacterial activities were evaluated by microdilution plate ...

Gram-positive anaerobic cocci (GPAC) are a heterogeneous group of organisms defined by their morphological appearance and their inability to grow in the presence of oxygen; most clinical isolates are identified to species in the genus Peptostreptococcus. GPAC are part of the normal flora of all mucocutaneous surfaces and are often isolated from infections such as deep organ abscesses, obstetric...

Background: Post-neurosurgical meningitis is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity. In this study we aimed to compare the differences of clinical, laboratory features and outcomes between the post-neurosurgical meningitis caused by gram-negative bacilli (GNB) and gram-positive cocci (GPC). Methods: Cases of post-neurosurgical meningitis (with positive CSF culture) were included. After...
