AIMS: To compare a range of enrichment broths and enrichment temperatures for the isolation of Escherichia coli O157 by immunomagnetic separation (IMS) from sandy, loam and clay soils. METHODS AND RESULTS: Soils were spiked with cocktails of four atoxigenic strains of E. coli O157 and four strains of commensal E. coli. The organisms were stressed by subjecting soils to cycles of freeze/thawing, followed by drying at 20 degrees C for up to 4 days. Nine enrichment broths were trialled based on buffered peptone water, tryptone soya broths and EC broths supplemented with a range of selective additions. Enrichments were incubated for 6 h and assessed by target recovery after IMS on cefixime tellurite sorbitol MacConkey agar (CTSMAC) incubated at 37 degrees C for 24 h. A comparison of enrichment temperatures (37 and 42 degrees C) was also performed. Buffered peptone water (with or without vancomycin) and tryptone soya broth (with or without novobiocin) gave significant increases in recovery of E. coli O157 compared to others tested. In addition, broths incubated at 42 degrees C were superior to those at 37 degrees C for the recovery of E. coli O157. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This study showed that sub-lethally damaged E. coli O157 surviving in soil can be sensitive to antimicrobial additions. The choice and concentration of these additions is vitally important to optimize target recovery. Some IMS protocols, established for the isolation of E. coli O157, may be unsuitable for the examination of soil samples.  相似文献

AIMS: To compare immunomagnetic separation (IMS) protocols (enrichment media and temperature) for the isolation of Escherichia coli serotypes O26 and O111 from four different foods. METHODS AND RESULTS: Foods (minced beef, cheese, apple juice and pepperoni) spiked with low numbers (<100 g(-1)) of stressed nalidixic mutant E. coli serotypes O26 and O111 were enriched in media based on buffered peptone water (BPW), tryptone soya and EC broths incubated at temperatures of 37 and 42 degrees C to optimize the IMS technique. BPW enrichments gave increased recoveries of both serotypes compared with tryptone soya and EC broths. Elevated temperatures of incubation at 42 degrees C were superior to 37 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS: Positive detection of low numbers of stressed target pathogens in all replicate tests was only possible using BPW enrichments. The majority of tests from alternative enrichments resulted in zero or single colonies recovered post-IMS. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The optimum IMS protocol would improve isolation rates of E. coli O26 and O111 from foods and lead to increased safety for the consumer. Sub-optimal IMS protocols could lead to foods being incorrectly labelled free from these pathogens.  相似文献

AIMS: To investigate the assumption that usage of novobiocin (20 mg l(-1)) in Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) enrichment broths could achieve false-negative results. METHODS AND RESULTS: First, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 74 E. coli O157:H7 and 55 non-O157:H7 STEC strains to novobiocin was determined. Second, to visualize the potential impact of novobiocin on the STEC growth during the enrichment step, the growth experiments were carried out in trypticase soy broth (TSB) with and without 20 mg l(-1) of novobiocin. The MIC values varied from 32 to > 64 mg l(-1) for the 74 E. coli O157:H7 strains, and from 16 to > 64 mg l(-1) for the 55 non-O157:H7 STEC strains. The E. coli O157:H7 strains were significantly (P < 0.001) more resistant to novobiocin than the non-O157:H7 STEC strains. The present study shows that the addition of novobiocin into enrichment broths inhibits the growth of some non-O157:H7 STEC strains, and slows down the growth of some STEC strains. CONCLUSIONS: Enrichment broths supplemented by novobiocin could lead to false-negative results for detecting STEC from food. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: We strongly suggest that novobiocin should not be systematically added into enrichment broths for detecting STEC from food.  相似文献

AIMS: Escherichia coli O157 is considered to be one of most important human pathogens of animal origin which causes serious clinical complications. One of the most common methods to isolate E. coli O157 is the immunomagnetic separation (IMS) technique which employs specific antibodies coupled to magnetic beads to bind and extract cells from enrichment broths followed by plating onto sorbitol MacConkey agar supplemented with cefixime and potassium tellurite (CT-SMAC) plates. The aim of this study was to determine strain variation by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) among E. coli O157 on IMS/CT-SMAC plates. METHODS AND RESULTS: Every suspect colony of E. coli O157 was tested following isolation by the IMS/CT-SMAC technique. From 124 colonies detected; six XbaI-PFGE profiles were identified. CONCLUSIONS: Our results demonstrate that mixed populations of E. coli O157 with distinguishable PFGE profiles that are simultaneously present in bovine faeces can be isolated with IMS/CT-SMAC technique. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: If the aim of the study was to analyse diversity of PFGE profiles of E. coli O157 in a faecal sample following isolation by the IMS/CT-SMAC technique, at least five colonies per sample should be analysed to detect different PFGE subtypes if present.  相似文献

Aims:  The efficiency of eight enrichment broths for the selective isolation of Campylobacter jejuni was compared to identify an optimal enrichment broth.
Methods and Results:  Brucella-FBP, Preston, Doyle and Roman, modified CCD (mCCD), Park and Sanders, Bolton, Hunt and Radle and Hunt broths were compared for their recovery of (i) Camp. jejuni in suspension, (ii) Camp. jejuni from inoculated ground pork, (iii) heat-injured Camp. jejuni (55°C for 20 min) in suspension and (iv) heat-injured Camp. jejuni from inoculated ground pork. Hunt broth and Bolton broth showed the highest and most rapid enrichment efficacy for the cell suspensions and ground pork, respectively. Preston, Park and Sanders and mCCD broths had relatively high enrichment efficiencies, while Brucella-FBP broth was significantly inferior to the other broths ( P  < 0·05).
Conclusions:  Cell recovery from the eight enrichment broths was dependent on the sample type and the state of the cells. The use of the appropriate broth is important for the rapid and efficacious enrichment of Camp. jejuni . In particular, heat-injured Camp. jejuni require a longer cultivation time and a suitable enrichment broth.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  The results from the present study provide information for selecting the most appropriate enrichment broth for Camp. jejuni and may contribute to improved detection methods for the organism.  相似文献

Aims:  This study sought to determine the most effective protocol for the detection of Campylobacter spp. in retail packs of fresh, raw chicken based on ISO 10272-1:2006.
Methods and Results:  Three sample preparation protocols were studied; two based on excision and one combining excision with a rinse of the remaining sample. Enrichment cultures were incubated both in closed bottles and microaerobically, and sub-cultured at 24 and 48 h. Packs of chicken (110) were analysed and only two yielded no Campylobacter spp. Subculturing enrichment broths at 24 h gave the same prevalence as at 48 h, P  >   0·4 but microaerobic incubation yielded approximately 50% more positive samples than did incubation in closed bottles. Sampling based on excision plus rinsing gave the highest Campylobacter prevalence (92·7%).
Conclusions:  To isolate Campylobacter spp. from retail packs of chicken, enrichment cultures must be incubated in a microaerobic atmosphere and sub-cultured at 24 h and, possibly, 48 h. Sampling packs by excision plus rinsing maximized recoveries.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  ISO 10272-1:2006 permits the use of inefficient protocols which markedly underestimate the true prevalence of Campylobacter spp. in retail, fresh chicken. Equivalent results could be obtained 24 h earlier, with consequent savings. Its revision is essential.  相似文献

AIMS: To determine the sensitivity and specificity of two automated enzyme immunoassays (EIA), EiaFoss and Minividas, and a conventional microbiological culture technique for detecting thermophilic Campylobacter spp. in turkey samples. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 286 samples (faecal, meat, neckskin and environmental samples) were collected over a period of 4 months at a turkey slaughterhouse and meat-cutting plant in Denmark. Faecal and environmental samples were tested by the conventional culture method and by the two EIAs, whereas meat and neckskin samples were tested by the two EIAs only. Two enrichment broths were used, Campylobacter Enrichment Broth (CEB) and Preston Broth (PB). Verification of positive test results was carried out by conventional culture on selective solid media. The specificities of all methods were high. The sensitivities of the EIAs were higher than that of the conventional culture technique but varied depending on the type of sample and enrichment broth. For neckskin samples, the Minividas had a significantly higher sensitivity than the EiaFoss and using PB instead of CEB as the enrichment broth significantly improved the sensitivity for both EIAs. CONCLUSIONS: Both EIAs provided more accurate results than the conventional culture technique. Furthermore, neckskin samples enriched in PB resulted in more positive test results and Campylobacter growth than samples enriched in CEB. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The Eiafoss and Minividas proved to be reliable methods for detecting Campylobacter spp. in various samples. However, the results emphasize the need for the development of specific enrichment protocols for specific samples.  相似文献

AIMS: To study the incidence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in seafoods, water and sediment by molecular techniques vs conventional microbiological methods. METHODS AND RESULTS: Of 86 samples analysed, 28 recorded positive for V. parahaemolyticus by conventional microbiological method, while 53 were positive by the toxR-targeted PCR, performed directly on enrichment broth lysates. While one sample of molluscan shellfish was positive for tdh gene, trh gene was detected in three enrichment broths of molluscan shellfish. CONCLUSIONS: Direct application of PCR to enrichment broths will be useful for the rapid and sensitive detection of potentially pathogenic strains of V. parahemolyticus in seafoods. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an important human pathogen responsible for food-borne gastroenteritis world-wide. As, both pathogenic and non-pathogenic strains of V. parahaemolyticus exist in the seafood, application of PCR specific for the virulence genes (tdh & trh) will help in detection of pathogenic strains of V. parahaemolyticus and consequently reduce the risk of food-borne illness.  相似文献

In this study, the sensitivities of multiplex PCR and an immuno-chromatographic methods to detect Escherichia coli O157:H7 in minced beef were compared. The detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in minced beef inoculated with 1-100 cells of this bacterium was possible after enrichment of culture and subsequent analysis by either of the two methods. Enrichment conditions were eight hours of incubation at 37 degrees C or 42 degrees C in a non-selective medium (Buffered Peptone Water). Multiplex PCR analysis was performed using three primer sets with analysis by gel electrophoresis. The Quix immuno-chromatographic assay which is a new kit being marketed by New Horizons Diagnostics, Columbia, MD, was used for immunological analysis of the enriched broths.The sensitivity of both tests was similar. The results depended on the concentration of the specific bacterium in the culture since the influence of the proportion of other bacteria to the E. coli O157:H7 was not observed. The data suggests that either method or used together, when coupled with an enrichment technique, could provide a rapid mean to detect the presence of this pathogen in minced meat samples.  相似文献

AIMS: Escherichia coli O157:H7 was monitored daily during sprouting of alfalfa seeds inoculated at high (3.92 log10 cfu g(-1)) and low (1.86 log10 cfu g(-1)) levels to assess the extent of pathogen growth during production. METHODS AND RESULTS: Sprouts and rinse water were tested by direct and membrane filter plating on modified sorbitol MacConkey agar and BCM O157:H7(+) agar; the antibody-direct epifluorescent filter technique; and rapid immunoassays. The pathogen reached maximum populations after one and two days of sprouting seeds inoculated at high and low levels, respectively; in either case, populations of 5-6 log10 cfu g(-1) were reached. Detection limits of two rapid immunoassays, Reveal and VIP, without enrichment were determined to be 5-7 log10 cfu ml(-1). CONCLUSION: These results show the ability of E. coli O157:H7 to grow to high levels during sprouting; however, because these levels may be below detection limits, it is necessary to include enrichment when monitoring sprout production for E. coli O157:H7 by the rapid test kits. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The data indicate that sprouts may harbor high levels of pathogens. The appropriate use of rapid test methods for pathogen monitoring during sprouting is indicated.  相似文献

Aim: To investigate the effect of selective and nonselective media on the expression of ActA and InlB proteins in Listeria monocytogenes. Methods and Results: Polyclonal antibodies to InlB and ActA were used in western blotting to determine the effect of selective (BLEB, UVM, and FB) or nonselective (BHI and LB) enrichment broths or hotdog exudates. Of the 13 L. monocytogenes serotypes tested, 11 and 12 serotypes showed a strong InlB expression in brain heart infusion (BHI) and Luria‐Bertani (LB), respectively, while only seven and one serotypes showed a strong ActA expression in these two respective broths, and others showed a weaker or no expression. On the contrary, in selective broths, expression of InlB was either very weak or undetectable. However, ActA expression was stronger in 12 serotypes when grown in buffered Listeria enrichment broth (BLEB), 11 in University of Vermont medium (UVM), and 10 in Fraser broth (FB). When tested in hotdog exudates, InlB and ActA were detected in serotypes grown at 37°C but not at 4°C. Transmission electron microscopy, enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay, and mRNA analysis further supported these observations. Conclusion: Overall, selective enrichment broths promote ActA while nonselective broths promote InlB expression. Significance and Impact of the study: As commonly recommended enrichment broths show differential InlB and ActA expression, proper media must be selected to avoid false results during antibody‐based detection of L. monocytogenes.  相似文献

AIMS: To investigate the resuscitation of acid-injured Salmonella enterica in selected enrichment broths, in apple juice and on cut surfaces of apple and cucumber slices. METHODS AND RESULTS: Following exposure to 2.4% acetic acid for 7 min, S. enterica (serovars Mbandaka, Chester and Newport) cells were used to inoculate enrichment broths, phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), apple juice and fruit slices. Injured Salmonella cells resuscitated and regained the ability to form colonies on selective agar (Xylose-Lysine-Tergitol 4) if they were incubated in lactose broth (LB), universal pre-enrichment broth (UPB) or buffered peptone water (BPW), but not in tetrathionate broth, PBS or apple juice. The resuscitation occurred at a significantly (P > 0.05) faster rate in UPB than in LB or BPW. The resuscitation also occurred on the surfaces of fresh-cut cucumber at 20 degrees C, but not at 4 degrees C. CONCLUSIONS: Acid-injured Salmonella cells resuscitated in nonselective enrichment broths at different rates, but not in selective enrichment broth, apple juice, PBS or on fresh-cut apple. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Pre-enrichment of food samples in UPB prior to selective enrichment is recommended. Injured Salmonella cells have the ability to resuscitate on fresh-cut surfaces of cucumber when stored at abusive temperatures.  相似文献

AIMS: This study investigated whether the higher incidence of recovery from meat of Listeria innocua compared with L. monocytogenes could be due to the laboratory media used, leading to an artificially lower detection of the pathogenic species, L. monocytogenes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Minced beef was inoculated with L. monocytogenes, L. innocua, or a mixture of these species, and stored at 0 or 10 degrees C under vacuum or aerobic conditions for up to 28 days. Listeria were recovered from the minced beef using selective (University of Vermont Medium, UVM) and non-selective (Buffered Peptone Water, BPW) enrichment broths after 0, 14, and 28 days of storage. In general, there were no significant differences (P < 0.05) between the numbers of L. monocytogenes recovered from minced beef samples after 24 h enrichment in BPW and the numbers recovered using UVM. In addition, the presence of L. innocua in meat samples containing L. monocytogenes did not significantly (P < 0.05) affect the numbers of L. monocytogenes recovered using either enrichment broth. In most cases there were no significant differences (P < 0.05) between the numbers of L. innocua recovered from minced beef samples after 24 h enrichment in BPW compared with numbers recovered using UVM. CONCLUSION: Listeria innocua was found to have no significant competitive advantage over L. monocytogenes in selective or non-selective enrichment media. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The results suggest that, in some instances, the use of a selective enrichment broth offers no advantage over a non-selective enrichment broth for the recovery of Listeria species from minced beef.  相似文献

AIM: To estimate the distribution and prevalence of both Escherichia coli O157 and O157:H7-infecting bacteriophages within a 50,000 head commercial beef feedlot. METHODS AND RESULTS: Escherichia coli O157 was detected in approximately 27% of the individual samples, distributed across seven of the 10 pens screened. In a simple initial screen to detect O157:H7-infecting phages, none were detected in any pen or individual sample. In contrast, after a series of enrichment procedures O157:H7-infecting phages were detected in every pen and in the majority of the samples from most pens; virulent bacteriophages active against E. coli O157:H7 were detected post-enrichment from 39/60 (65%) of the feedlot samples, and 58/60 (approximately 97%) contained phage that infected E. coli B or O157:H7. CONCLUSIONS: The data we present here indicates that we may be grossly underestimating the prevalence of O157:H7-infecting phages in livestock if we simply screen samples and that enrichment screening is required to truly determine the presence of phages in these ecosystems. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Our data suggest that O157:H7-infecting phages may play a role in the ecology and transient colonization of cattle by E. coli O157:H7. Further, this and previous data suggest that before starting in vivo pathogen eradication studies using phage or any other regime, test animals should be enrichment screened for phage to avoid erroneous results.  相似文献

AIMS: To evaluate the suitability of a multiplex PCR-based assay for sensitive and rapid detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in soil and water. METHODS AND RESULTS: Soil and water samples were spiked with E. coli O157:H7 and subjected to two stages of enrichment prior to multiplex PCR. Detection sensitivities were as high as 1 cfu ml(-1) drinking water and 2 cfu g(-1) soil. Starvation of E. coli O157:H7 for 35 d prior to addition to soil did not affect the ability of the assay to detect initial cell numbers as low as 10 cfu g(-1) soil. Use of an 8-h primary enrichment enabled detection of as few as 6 cfu g(-1) soil, and 10(4) cfu g(-1) soil with a 6-h primary enrichment. When soil was inoculated with 10(5) cfu g(-1), the PCR assay indicated persistence of E. coli O157:H7 during a 35 d incubation. However, when soil was inoculated with lower numbers of pathogen, PCR amplification signals indicated survival to be dependent on cell concentration. CONCLUSIONS: A multiplex PCR-based assay, in combination with an enrichment strategy enabled sensitive and rapid detection of E. coli O157:H7 in soil and water. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The ability to sensitively detect E.coli O157:H7 in environmental material within one working day represents a considerable advancement over alternative more time-consuming methods for detection of this pathogen.  相似文献

AIM: To quantify the effect of enrichment, immunomagnetic separation (IMS), and selective plating procedures on isolation of Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 (STEC O157) and non-Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 (non-STEC O157) from naturally contaminated bovine faeces. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two broth enrichment times, two IMS strategies, and two selective plating media were evaluated. STEC O157 and non-STEC O157 strains were often isolated from the same faecal specimen and responded differently to the isolation protocols. A large-volume IMS system was more sensitive than a conventional small-volume IMS method, but was also more expensive. STEC O157 was more frequently isolated from 6 h enriched broth and ChromAgar plates containing 0.63 mg l(-1) potassium tellurite (TCA). Non-STEC O157 was more frequently isolated from un-enriched broth and ChromAgar plates without tellurite (CA). CONCLUSIONS: The combination of 6-h enrichment in Gram-negative broth containing vancomycin, cefixime and cefsuludin, large volume IMS and selective plating on TCA maximized STEC O157 recovery from naturally contaminated cattle faecal specimens. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The pairing of proper enrichment with a specific plating procedure is key for STEC O157 recovery from naturally contaminated bovine faeces. Incorporating tellurite into an E. coli O157 detection strategy may select for the subset of E. coli O157 that contains the Shiga-toxin genes.  相似文献

AIMS: We conducted two short-term studies of cohorts of naturally infected calves to determine the prevalence and concentrations of Escherichia coli O157 shed in faeces. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two cohorts of calves were sampled; in the first study 14 calves were sampled up to five times a day for 5 days; in the second study a group of 16 separate calves were sampled once or twice a day for 15 days. All cattle within the two cohorts shed E. coli O157 at some point during the respective studies. In 18% of samples, E. coli O157 could only be isolated using immunomagnetic separation after an enrichment period, suggesting concentrations <250 CFU g(-1). The highest concentrations recorded were 6.7 x 10(5) and 1.6 x 10(6) CFU g(-1) for studies 1 and 2 respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Persistent, high shedders (shedding >10(3) CFU g(-1)) were evident in both studies but, in the majority of calves, the pathogen was isolated intermittently. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The variable patterns of shedding have important implications for the design of appropriate sampling protocols and for gaining meaningful estimates of parameters used in mathematical models of transmission.  相似文献

AIMS: To study the effects of the selenium enrichment protocols in yeast at various points in the cell cycle, total selenium accumulation and the forms of selenium incorporated. METHODS AND RESULTS: The use of selenized yeast as enriched selenium supplements in human nutrition has become a topic of increasing interest over the last decade. Four enrichment procedures have been evaluated using sodium selenite as the selenium source: enrichment during the growth phase; enrichment at the non-growth phase, both of these at different selenium levels; enrichment by seeding in a fermentable carbon source (glucose); Se-enrichment with a non-fermentable carbon source (glycerol). A nitric acid digestion of the yeast samples prepared under different conditions has been performed in order to evaluate the total selenium incorporated into the yeast cells. Also, an enzymatic digestion of the yeast samples with pepsin has been carried out as an initial step to begin the process of determining which of the different possible selenium species are formed. The cell count evaluations of the selenium-enriched yeast showed that the growth phase, seeding and the use of YEPG media is influenced by the addition of Se, while the non-growth phase is not. Total selenium incorporation studies showed that seeding the yeast permits more accumulation of selenium. Speciation studies of the enriched yeast showed that the growth phase increases the formation of L-Se-methionine. CONCLUSIONS: When the aim of enriching yeast with selenium is the formation of L-Se-methionine, the best enrichment procedure is using the growth phase with small concentrations of sodium selenite. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The use of selenium supplements is widespread and most of the supplements use selenium-enriched yeast in their formulation. Studies made on supplements do not have the appropriate Se-species for optimal absorption in the human body. This study presents and compares methods for the best selenium yeast enrichment that could ultimately be used in selenium supplement formulations.  相似文献

Many enteric media are more efficient for the detection of salmonellae than of shigellae. Comparisons of three enrichment broths and three plating media were made during analysis of 1,405 stool specimens to choose a combination of media which would enhance detection of shigellae as well. Gram-Negative (GN), Selenite, and Silliker's Broths were streaked to E M B, Salmonella-Shigella (SS), and xylose lysine deoxycholate (XLD) Agars. The enrichment broths produced a twofold increase in isolations of both salmonellae and shigellae over direct streaking. All three broths performed equally well for Salmonella detection, but GN and Silliker's produced twice as many Shigella isolates as did Selenite. Comparison of the plating media showed that XLD was markedly more efficient than either E M B or SS Agar for the recovery of both genera. SS Agar was superior to E M B for isolation of salmonellae after enrichment, whereas E M B was better for isolation of shigellae by direct streaking. Both E M B and SS were more effective when used after GN and Silliker's than after Selenite. GN Broth and XLD Agar were the most efficient combination of media. During these analyses, 158 salmonellae and 49 shigellae isolates were obtained.  相似文献

The efficiency of selective enrichment broths for the recovery of low numbers of acid/salt stressed Escherichia coli O157:H7 was determined. Stressed cultures were diluted to low levels and recovered in tryptone soya broth with added bile salts, to make modified tryptone soya broth, and buffered peptone water with various combinations of antibiotic supplementation including novobiocin, acriflavine and a mixture of vancomycin, cefsulodin and cefixime (VCC) at 37 °C and 42 °C. Significantly fewer stressed cells, in some cases as little as 0·3% of the starting population, were recovered by all the selective enrichment broths containing bile salts or VCC antibiotics compared to the non-selective controls. The use of such enrichments to recover low numbers of stressed E. coli O157:H7 may result in failure to detect the organism. Parallels with salmonella methodology are made and the need for a non-selective pre-enrichment stage in E. coli O157:H7 methods discussed.  相似文献
