Prevalence and phenotypic characterization of Enterococcus spp. isolated from f...
Camargo,Carlos Henrique; Bruder-Nascimento,Ariane; Lee,Sarah Hwa In; Fernandes Júnior,Ary; Kaneno,Ramon; Rall,Vera Lúcia MoresWe evaluated the frequency of enterococci from food and found 95.2% of positivity, being E. faecium and E. faecalis the most frequent species. High-level streptomycin resistance was observed, as well as gelatinase and hemolysis activity, showing the potential role of environmental strains as reservoir of virulence and resistance traits.
Inhibitory effect of essential oils against Lactobacillus rhamnosus and starter...
Moritz,Cristiane Mengue Feniman; Rall,Vera Lúcia Mores; Saeki,Margarida Júri; Fernandes Júnior,AryThe use of essential oils in foods has attracted great interest, due to their antagonistic action against pathogenic microorganisms. However, this action is undesirable for probiotic foods, as products containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus. The aim of the present study was to measure the sensitivity profile of L. rhamnosus and a yogurt starter culture in fermented milk, upon addition of increasing concentrations o...

Streptococcal neonatal disease is associated with significant morbidity and mortality in the perinatal period, especially among premature neonates. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of maternal streptococcal colonization by using combined swab ...
Qualidade de couve-chinesa minimamente processada e tratada com diferentes prod...
Evangelista,Regina Marta; Vieites,Rogério Lopes; Castro,Priscila Souza de; Rall,Vera Lúcia MoresO objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a qualidade de couve-chinesa minimamente processada e tratada com cloreto de cálcio (CaCl2), ácido ascórbico (vitamina C), ácido etileno-diamino-tetracético (EDTA) e mantida sob refrigeração. Foram realizados os seguintes tratamentos: T1: testemunha (imersão em água contendo 50 mg L-1 clorin/5 minutos); T2: imersão em solução contendo CaCl2 a 1%/5 minutos; T3: imersão em so...
Evaluation of three enrichment broths and five plating media for Salmonella det...
Rall,Vera Lúcia Mores; Rall,Ricardo; Aragon,Lina Casale; Silva,Márcia Guimarães daWe evaluated the effectiveness of Selenite Cystine (SC), Tetrathionate Brilliant Green (TBG) and Rappaport Vassiliadis (RV) broths for Salmonella isolation. We also tested three classic plating media, Salmonella-Shigella Agar (SS), Brilliant Green Agar (BGA), Xylose Lysine Desoxycholate Agar (XLD) and two chromogenic agars, Rambach (RA) and CHROMagar Salmonella (CAS). Among 100 poultry carcasses, 29 were positi...
Critical control points for meat balls and kibbe preparations in a hospital kit...
Pedroso,Débora Midori Myaki; Iaria,Sebastião Timo; Gamba,Rosa Carvalho; Heidtmann,Sandra; Rall,Vera Lúcia MoresHazards and critical control points (CCP) associated with meat balls and kibbe preparations in a hospital kitchen were determined using flow diagrams and microbiological testing of samples collected along the production line. Microbiological testing included counts of mesophilic and psicrothrophic microorganisms, yeasts and molds, total and fecal coliforms, C. perfringens, coagulase positive staphylococci, bact...
Aeromonas species isolated from PINTADO fish (Pseudoplatystoma sp): virulence f...
Rall,Vera Lúcia Mores; Iaria,Sebastião Timo; Heidtmann,Sandra; Pimenta,Fabiana Cristina; Gamba,Rosa Carvalho; Pedroso,Débora Midori MyakiAeromonas has been described as an emergent foodborne pathogen of increasing importance. In this study, we report that 48% of 50 Pintado fish samples collected at the retail market of São Paulo city were positive for Aeromonas sp, as detected by the direct plating method. When the presence/absence method was used, the positivity was 42%. A. caviae was the most frequent species, followed by A. hydrophila and A. ...
