Campylobacter jejuni is prevalent in poultry, but the effect of combined refrigerated and frozen storage on its survival, conditions relevant to poultry processing and storage, has not been evaluated. Therefore, the effects of refrigeration at 4 degrees C, freezing at -20 degrees C, and a combination of refrigeration and freezing on the survival of C. jejuni in ground chicken and on chicken skin were examined. Samples were enumerated using tryptic soy agar containing sheep's blood and modified cefoperazone charcoal deoxycholate agar. Refrigerated storage alone for 3 to 7 days produced a reduction in cell counts of 0.34 to 0.81 log10 CFU/g in ground chicken and a reduction in cell counts of 0.31 to 0.63 log10 CFU/g on chicken skin. Declines were comparable for each sample type using either plating medium. Frozen storage, alone and with prerefrigeration, produced a reduction in cell counts of 0.56 to 1.57 log10 CFU/g in ground chicken and a reduction in cell counts of 1.38 to 3.39 log10 CFU/g on chicken skin over a 2-week period. The recovery of C. jejuni following freezing was similar on both plating media. The survival following frozen storage was greater in ground chicken than on chicken skin with or without prerefrigeration. Cell counts after freezing were lower on chicken skin samples that had been prerefrigerated for 7 days than in those that had been prerefrigerated for 0, 1, or 3 days. This was not observed for ground chicken samples, possibly due to their composition. C. jejuni survived storage at 4 and -20 degrees C with either sample type. This study indicates that, individually or in combination, refrigeration and freezing are not a substitute for safe handling and proper cooking of poultry. 相似文献

AIMS: To investigate the survival of two animal isolates of Campylobacter jejuni on beef trimmings during freezing and frozen storage. METHODS AND RESULTS: Meat packs inoculated with 10(3) or 10(6) cfu g(-1) of either strain of C. jejuni were frozen to -18 degrees C, and sampled at regular intervals over 112 d storage to determine Campylobacter numbers and sublethal injury. For both strains and inoculation levels the numbers of Campylobacter decreased in the first 7 d of storage by ca. 0.6-2.2 log cfu g(-1) and then remaining constant over the remainder of the storage trial, with neither isolate exhibiting sublethal injury. CONCLUSIONS: Despite an initially significant decrease in number, these pathogens were able to survive standard freezing conditions in meat, but did not exhibit sublethal injury. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Strict hygiene and/or the implementation of decontamination technologies are recommended as a means to assure the safety of meat with respect to this pathogen. 相似文献

Four of five strains of Campylobacter jejuni survived in chicken meat stored at — 18C for 12 months. Direct plating of samples was superior to the most probable number technique for enumerating C. jejuni. Enrichment culture using the Doyle & Roman enrichment method resulted in the highest rates of detection. Packaging under an atmosphere of CO2 did not substantially influence survival. 相似文献

Survival of Campylobacter jejuni and Escherichia coli in groundwater during prolonged starvation at low temperatures 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
AIMS: To evaluate the survival of Campylobacter jejuni relative to that of Escherichia coli in groundwater microcosms varying in nutrient composition. METHODS AND RESULTS: Studies were conducted in groundwater and deionized water incubated for up to 470 days at 4 degrees C. Samples were taken for culturable and total cell counts, nutrient and molecular analysis. Die-off in groundwater microcosms was between 2.5 and 13 times faster for C. jejuni than for E. coli. Campylobacter jejuni had the lowest decay rate and longest culturability in microcosms with higher dissolved organic carbon (4 mg l(-1)). Escherichia coli survival was the greatest when the total dissolved nitrogen (12.0 mg l(-1)) was high. The transition of C. jejuni to the coccoid stage was independent of culturability. CONCLUSION: The differences in the duration of survival and response to water nutrient composition between the two organisms suggest that E. coli may be present in the waters much longer and respond to water composition much differently than C. jejuni. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The data from these studies would aid in the evaluation of the utility of E. coli as an indicator of C. jejuni. This study also provided new information about the effect of nutrient composition on C. jejuni viability. 相似文献

Recognition of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni (referred to hereafter as C. jejuni) as an important human pathogen and its isolation from meat products indicate the need for knowledge of its survival characteristics in meats. Thermal death times (D-values) for a single strain and a five-strain composite were determined in 1% peptone and autoclaved ground chicken meat at temperatures ranging from 49 to 57 degrees C. Survival was determined for these strains in chicken meat at 4, 23, 37, and 43 degrees C. Survival was also determined on raw chicken drumsticks stored at 4 degrees C in either an ambient or a CO2 atmosphere. D-values were greater in chicken meat than in peptone in all cases. D-values in peptone for strain H-840 at 49, 51, 53, 55, and 57 degrees C were 15.2, 4.90, 1.71, 0,64, and 0.25 min, respectively. The corresponding D-values in ground chicken meat were 20.5, 8.77, 4.85, 2.12, and 0.79 min, respectively. Similar results were obtained with a composite of five strains. When sterile ground chicken meat was inoculated with approximately 10(6) to 10(7) C. jejuni cells per g and stored at 37 degrees C in an ambient atmosphere, a 1-to 2-log count increase occurred during the first 4 days, followed by a gradual decline of about 1 log during the remainder of the 17-day storage period. No growth was observed among similarly inoculated samples that were stored at 4, 23, and 43 degrees C but counts declined by about 1 to 2 logs at 4 degrees C (17 day), by 2.5 to 5 logs at 23 degrees C (17 days), and to undetectable levels at 43 degrees C (between 10 and 16 days). Survival on raw chicken drumsticks stored at 4 degrees C in CO2 and in an ambient atmosphere declined by about 1.5 and 2.0 logs, respectively, during 21 days of storage. The effect of temperature on the survival of C. jejuni in chicken meat was similar to that reported in other natural and laboratory milieus. Ordinary cooking procedures that destroy salmonellae would be expected to destroy C. jejuni. 相似文献

Survival of Campylobacter jejuni in raw, pasteurized and ultra-heat-treated goat's milk stored at different temperatures 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The survival of a human strain of Campylobacter jejuni in raw, pasteurized and ultra-heat-treated goat's milk stored at 5°, 10°, 15° and 20°C was studied. No viable units were detected in raw milk after 24 h at 20°C and 48 h at 15°C. None were detected in pasteurized milk after 48 h at 20°C. In all other samples, there was a decline in viable units in the first 24 h but very little decline in the next 24 h period. The organism survived best at 5° and 10° C. 相似文献

Campylobacter jejuni was found in 82.9% of 94 chicken wing packages analyzed on the day of arrival at supermarkets and in 15.5% of 45 packages obtained from the supermarket shelves a few days later. The number of bacterial cells ranged from 10(2) to 10(3.9) per wing. The prevalence of C. jejuni in the wings varied with the brand, the day of sampling, and the age of the product. 相似文献

Survival of Campylobacter jejuni in Waterborne Protozoa 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The failure to reduce the Campylobacter contamination of intensively reared poultry may be partially due to Campylobacter resisting disinfection in water after their internalization by waterborne protozoa. Campylobacter jejuni and a variety of waterborne protozoa, including ciliates, flagellates, and alveolates, were detected in the drinking water of intensively reared poultry by a combination of culture and molecular techniques. An in vitro assay showed that C. jejuni remained viable when internalized by Tetrahymena pyriformis and Acanthamoeba castellanii for significantly longer (up to 36 h) than when they were in purely a planktonic state. The internalized Campylobacter were also significantly more resistant to disinfection than planktonic organisms. Collectively, our results strongly suggest that protozoa in broiler drinking water systems can delay the decline of Campylobacter viability and increase Campylobacter disinfection resistance, thus increasing the potential of Campylobacter to colonize broilers. 相似文献

Campylobacter jejuni is often prevalent in turkey and poultry, but the effects of storage temperatures and storage periods and the interruption of the cooling chain on its survival have not been evaluated so far. In this study, 700 samples of turkey meat were artificially contaminated by inoculating their surface with 10(3) CFU of C. jejuni per sample, wrapped in airtight cellophane bags, and stored under different chilling and freezing conditions for various storage periods; this was followed by analysis of the cultures. Subsequent to incubation at 25 degrees C for 48 h, C. jejuni was reisolated in only 7% of the samples. When the samples were stored under refrigerator conditions at 4 degrees C, the organism was reisolated in 42% of the samples after 1 week, and in 28% of the samples after 2 weeks. The recovery rates in the samples that had been stored frozen at -20 degrees C without interruption of the cooling chain were 68% after 2 weeks and 24% after 4 weeks. Different storage conditions were simulated in order to examine the impact of an interruption of the cooling chain on the survival of Campylobacter. 相似文献

A study was undertaken to compare several enrichment and direct isolation media for their suitability to detect and enumerate five strains of Campylobacter jejuni in refrigerated (5 degrees C) chicken meat. The influence of CO2 on survival at 5 degrees C was also investigated. Selective enrichment media evaluated included Preston broth (PB), selective semisolid brucella medium (SSBM), Campylobacter enrichment broth (CEB), VTP brucella-FBP broth (VTP), Rosef and Kapperud Campylobacter enrichment broth (RKCEB), and Doyle and Roman enrichment broth (DREB). Direct isolation agars included Campy brucella agar (CBAP), blood-free Campylobacter medium (BFCM) and modified Butzler agar (MBA). Comminuted chicken meat was inoculated with C. jejuni, sealed under atmospheric gas or CO2, and stored at 5 degrees C for up to 21 days. Viable population was determined by the most-probable-number technique (PB, SSBM, CEB, VTP, and RKCEB, followed by plating on CBAP, BFCM, and MBA), enrichment on DREB, followed by plating on CBAP, BFCM, and MBA, and direct isolation on CBAP, BFCM, and MBA. Without exception, direct plating of samples was superior to the most-probable-number technique for enumerating C. jejuni; MBA was inferior to CBAP and BFCM, and DREB performed at least as well as other enrichment media evaluated. Carbon dioxide afforded protection against death of three of the five strains of C. jejuni tested. 相似文献

Campylobacter jejuni in fresh chilled chicken meat is known to be a major risk factor for human gastrointestinal disease. In the present study, the survival under chilled conditions of different C. jejuni strains exposed to different gas mixtures usually used for gas packaging of food was examined. Bolton broth and fresh, skinless chicken fillets were inoculated with six and four strains, respectively, and exposed to the gas mixtures 70/30% O(2)/CO(2), 70/30% N(2)/CO(2), and 100% N(2) (the latter only investigated in broth) at refrigeration temperature (4-5 degrees C). In broth culture, the strains survived significantly longer when exposed to 100% N(2) and 70/30% N(2)/CO(2) than in the oxygen-containing gas mixture, 70/30% O(2)/CO(2) (P<0.0001). For the two anaerobic gas mixtures, the reductions only reached 0.3-0.8 log(10) CFU mL(-1) within the same period. In the presence of oxygen, the numbers of C. jejuni were reduced by a minimum of 4.6 log(10) CFU mL(-1) over 21 days. When inoculated onto chicken fillets, the C. jejuni strains also died significantly faster in the oxygen-containing gas mixture, 70/30% O(2)/CO(2) (P<0.0001), reaching reductions of 2.0-2.6 log(10) CFU g(-1) after 8 days. In the gas mixture without oxygen (70/30% N(2)/CO(2)), no reductions were observed. 相似文献

Twelve strains of Campylobacter fetus subsp. jejuni isolated from humans and animals grew at temperatures ranging from 34 to 45 degrees C and pH minima between 5.7 and 5.9. Only one strain grew at pH 5.8 with lactic acid present at a concentration similar to that in meat. All strains had decimal reduction times of less than 1 min at 60 degrees C. Further examination of a typical strain showed that it grew at 37 degrees C on high-pH meat but not at 37 degrees C on normal-pH meat. Bacterial numbers on both high (6.4)-pH and normal (5.8)-pH inoculated meat declined at a similar rate when the meat was stored at 25 degrees C. At -1 degree C, the rate of die-off was somewhat slower on normal-pH meat but was very much slower on high-pH meat. The initial fall in bacterial numbers that occurred when meat was frozen was also greater for normal-pH meat than for high-pH meat. The organism exhibited a long lag phase (1 to 2 days) when grown in cooked-meat medium at 37 degrees C and died in meat pies stored at 37 or 43 degrees C. Evaluation of the risk of Campylobacter contamination of red-meat carcasses to human health must take into account the limited potential of the organism to grow or even survive on fresh meats and in warm prepared foods. 相似文献

Genomic DNA from 58 strains of Campylobacter made up of 48 Campylobacter jejuni and ten Campylobacter coli were digested with Sma I and analysed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). The cleavage of DNA by Sma I gave 22 distinct hybridization patterns. The two Campylobacter species were subtyped by PFGE. The average genomic size for C. jejuni by Sma I digestion was 1.73 Mb, while that of C. coli gave 1.7 Mb. Results from this study indicate that PFGE analysis by Sma I digested genomic DNA provides a reliable means of differentiating between and within species of Campylobacter and provides a practical approach to epidemiological studies of Campylobacter. 相似文献

Ground beef was inoculated with mixed cultures of Campylobacter jejuni, and the samples were subjected to various cooking and cold-storage temperatures. When samples were heated in an oven at either 190 or 218 degrees C, approximately 10(7) cells of C. jejuni per g were inactivated (less than 30 cells per g) in less than 10 min after the ground beef reached an internal temperature of 70 degrees C. When the samples were held at -15 degrees C over 14 days of storage, the numbers of C. jejuni declined by 3 log10. When inoculated samples were stored with an equal amount of Cary-Blair diluent at 4 degrees C, no changes in viability were observed over 14 days of storage. Twenty-five times as much C. jejuni was recovered from inoculated ground beef when either 10% glycerol or 10% dimethyl sulfoxide was added to an equal amount of ground beef before freezing as was recovered from peptone-diluted ground beef. Twice as much inoculated C. jejuni was recovered from ground beef plus Cary-Blair diluent as was recovered from ground beef plus peptone diluent. 相似文献
