Wang W, Cao Y, Li J, Lu S, Ge H, Pan S, Pan X, Wang L. The impact of osmotic stresses on the biofilm formation, immunodetection, and morphology of Aeromonas hydrophila. Microbiol Res 2023; 269:127301. [PMID: 36689842 DOI: 10.1016/j.micres.2023.127301] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2022] [Revised: 12/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
Aeromonas hydrophila (Ah) is a zoonotic pathogen of great importance to aquaculture and human health. This study systematically evaluated the impact of salinity, sugar, ammonia nitrogen, and nitric nitrogen levels on the fitness of Ah by using Luria-Bertani (LB) broth supplemented with different concentrations of NaCl, sucrose, NH4Cl, urea, NaNO2 or NaNO3. Results showed that the static biofilm formation of Ah was higher at 28 °C compared to 37 °C (P < 0.05). At 28 °C, as the NaCl (>1 %) and sucrose levels increased, the Ah biofilm formation and the binding between Ah cells and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs, for immunodetection) decreased. Elevated ammonia nitrogen and nitric nitrogen levels generated no significant impact on Ah biofilm formation or immunodetection (P > 0.05). The expression of mAbs-targeted Omp remained unchanged under high NaCl or sucrose conditions. Further analysis showed that high sucrose conditions led to the over-expression of the extracellular polysaccharides (PS) and promoted the formation of capsule-like structures. These over-expressed PS and capsule structures might be one reason explaining the inhibited immunodetection efficacy. Results generated from this study provide crucial insights for the design of recovery and detection protocols for Ah present in food or environmental samples.

Alegbeleye O, Sant'Ana AS. Impact of temperature, soil type and compost amendment on the survival, growth and persistence of Listeria monocytogenes of non-environmental (food-source associated) origin in soil. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2022; 843:157033. [PMID: 35777564 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2022.157033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2022] [Revised: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/24/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes of varied sources including food-related sources may reach the soil. Associated food safety and environmental health risks of such contamination depend significantly on the capacity of L. monocytogenes to survive in the soil. This study assessed the survival of 13 L. monocytogenes strains isolated from food and food processing environments and a cocktail of three of the strains in two types of soils (loam and sandy) under controlled temperature conditions: 5, 10, 20, 25, 30℃ and 'uncontrolled' ambient temperature conditions in a tropical region. The impact of compost amendment on the survival of L. monocytogenes in the two different types of soils was also assessed. Soil type, temperature and compost amendment significantly (P <0.001) impacted the survival of L. monocytogenes in soil. Temperature variations affected the survival of L. monocytogenes in soil, where some strains such as strain 732, a L. monocytogenes 1/2a strain survived better at lower temperature (5°C), for which counts of up to 10.47 ± 0.005 log CFU/g were recovered in compost-amended sandy soil, 60 days post-inoculation. Some other strains such as strain 441, a L. monocytogenes 1/2a survived best at intermediate temperature (25 and 30 °C), while others such as 2739 (L. monocytogenes 1/2b) thrived at higher temperature (between 30 °C - 37 °C). There were significant correlations between the influence of temperature and soil type, where lower temperature conditions (5°C - 20°C) were generally more suitable for survival in sandy soil compared to higher temperature conditions. For some of the strains that thrived better in sandy soil at lower temperature, Pearson correlation analysis found significant correlations between temperature and soil type. Steady, controlled temperature generally favored the survival of the strains compared to uncontrolled ambient temperature conditions, except for the cocktail. The cocktail persisted until the last day of post-inoculation storage (60th day) in all test soils and under all incubation temperature conditions. Loam soil was more favorable for the survival of L. monocytogenes and compost amendment improved the survival of the strains, especially in compost-amended sandy soil. Listeria monocytogenes may exhibit variable survival capacity in soil, depending on conditions such as soil type, compost amendment and temperature.

Abstract
This review deals with microbial adhesion to metal-based surfaces and the subsequent biofilm formation, showing that both processes are a serious problem in the food industry, where pathogenic microorganisms released from the biofilm structure may pollute food and related material during their production. Biofilm exhibits an increased resistance toward sanitizers and disinfectants, which complicates the removal or inactivation of microorganisms in these products. In the existing traditional techniques and modern approaches for clean-in-place, electrochemical biofilm control offers promising technology, where surface properties or the reactions taking place on the surface are controlled to delay or prevent cell attachment or to remove microbial cells from the surface. In this overview, biofilm characterization, the classification of bacteria-forming biofilms, the influence of environmental conditions for bacterial attachment to material surfaces, and the evaluation of the role of biofilm morphology are described in detail. Health aspects, biofilm control methods in the food industry, and conventional approaches to biofilm removal are included as well, in order to consider the possibilities and limitations of various electrochemical approaches to biofilm control with respect to potential applications in the food industry.

[PMID: 35267375 PMCID: PMC8909838 DOI: 10.3390/foods11050742] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2022] [Revised: 02/24/2022] [Accepted: 02/28/2022] [Indexed: 12/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Salmonella enteritidis is a major causative agent of foodborne illnesses worldwide. As the traditional serotyping and quantification methods are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and expensive, faster and more convenient molecular diagnostic methods are needed. In this study, we developed and validated a rapid duplex TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the accurate identification and quantification of S. enteritidis. The primers and TaqMan probes were designed based on the S. enteritidis-specific gene lygD and the Salmonella genus-specific gene invA. The melt curve and gel electrophoresis analysis showed that the designed primers had potent specificity for the amplification of lygD and invA. The duplex real-time PCR specifically identified S. enteritidis from a panel of 40 Salmonella strains that represented 29 serovars and 12 non-Salmonella organisms. The duplex real-time PCR assay detected four copies of S. enteritidis DNA per reaction. The intra- and inter- assays indicated a high degree of reproducibility. The real-time PCR could accurately detect and quantify S. enteritidis in chicken organs after Salmonella infection. Furthermore, the assay identified 100% of the S. enteritidis and Salmonella genus isolates from chicken egg samples with superior sensitivity after 6 h of pre-enrichment compared to the traditional culture method. Additionally, the most-probable-number (MPN) combined with qPCR and a shortened incubation time (MPN-qPCR-SIT) method was developed for the population determination of S. enteritidis and compared with various enumeration methods. Thus, we have established and validated a new duplex real-time PCR assay and MPN-qPCR-SIT method for the accurate detection and quantification of S. enteritidis, which could contribute to meeting the need for fast detection and identification in prevention and control measures for food safety.

Abstract
Deserts, as an unexplored extreme ecosystem, are known to harbor diverse actinobacteria with biotechnological potential. Both multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens and environmental issues have sharply raised the emerging demand for functional actinobacteria. From 2000 to 2021, 129 new species have been continuously reported from 35 deserts worldwide. The two largest numbers are of the members of the genera Streptomyces and Geodermatophilus, followed by other functional extremophilic strains such as alkaliphiles, halotolerant species, thermophiles, and psychrotolerant species. Improved isolation strategies for the recovery of culturable and unculturable desert actinobacteria are crucial for the exploration of their diversity and offer a better understanding of their survival mechanisms under extreme environmental stresses. The main bioprospecting processes involve isolation of target actinobacteria on selective media and incubation and selection of representatives from isolation plates for further investigations. Bioactive compounds obtained from desert actinobacteria are being continuously explored for their biotechnological potential, especially in medicine. To date, there are more than 50 novel compounds discovered from these gifted actinobacteria with potential antimicrobial activities, including anti-MDR pathogens and anti-inflammatory, antivirus, antifungal, antiallergic, antibacterial, antitumor, and cytotoxic activities. A range of plant growth-promoting abilities of the desert actinobacteria inspired great interest in their agricultural potential. In addition, several degradative, oxidative, and other functional enzymes from desert strains can be applied in the industry and the environment. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of desert environments as a remarkable source of diverse actinobacteria while such rich diversity offers an underexplored resource for biotechnological exploitations.

Abstract
In this study, the possible influence of the food matrix and the interfering population of microorganisms on the detection and count of Listeria monocytogenes in three common foods of the Spanish diet (Spanish omelette, fresh cheese and vegetable salad) was determined. Four groups were assayed: one control, two groups with interfering microorganisms (Salmonella Enteritidis, Staphylococcus aureus and Proteus mirabilis) with different levels of L. monocytogenes and a final group only contaminated with L. monocytogenes. The samples were analyzed with the normalized method (UNE-EN ISO 11290:2018) and with an alternative technique (VIDAS). The results show that the presence of interfering microorganisms did not seem to interfere with the determination of L. monocytogenes. Furthermore, the type of food did not seem to influence the determination of L. monocytogenes, but the culture media used showed differences. In fact, regardless of the type of food, the ALOA medium showed higher sensitivity than the other media, with higher recovery in 100% of samples (only for the Spanish omelette in Group B was the result the same as that for PALCAM, −8.11 log cfu/g). The results obtained using the VIDAS were not influenced by any of the factors or conditions used and show 100% efficiency.

Abstract
Streptomycetes have been, for over 70 years, one of the most abundant sources for the discovery of new antibiotics and clinic drugs. However, in recent decades, it has been more and more difficult to obtain new phylotypes of the genus Streptomyces by using conventional samples and culture strategies. In this study, we combined culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches to better explore the Streptomyces communities in desert sandy soils. Moreover, two different culture strategies termed Conventional Culture Procedure (CCP) and Streptomycetes Culture Procedure (SCP) were employed to evaluate the isolation efficiency of Streptomyces spp. with different intensities of selectivity. The 16S rRNA gene amplicon analysis revealed a very low abundance (0.04-0.37%, average 0.22%) of Streptomyces in all the desert samples, conversely the percentage of Streptomyces spp. obtained by the culture-dependent method was very high (5.20-39.57%, average 27.76%), especially in the rhizospheric sand soils (38.40-39.57%, average 38.99%). Meanwhile, a total of 1589 pure cultures were isolated successfully, dominated by Streptomyces (29.52%), Microvirga (8.06%) and Bacillus (7.68%). In addition, 400 potential new species were obtained, 48 of which belonged to the genus Streptomyces. More importantly, our study demonstrated the SCP strategy which had highly selectivity could greatly expand the number and phylotypes of Streptomyces spp. by almost 4-fold than CCP strategy. These results provide insights on the diversity investigation of desert Streptomyces, and it could be reference for researchers to bring more novel actinobacteria strains from the environment into culture.

Listeria monocytogenes Biofilms in the Food Industry: Is the Current Hygiene Program Sufficient to Combat the Persistence of the Pathogen? Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9010181. [PMID: 33467747 PMCID: PMC7830665 DOI: 10.3390/microorganisms9010181] [Citation(s) in RCA: 52] [Impact Index Per Article: 17.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2020] [Revised: 01/07/2021] [Accepted: 01/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Biofilms contain microbial cells which are protected by a self-produced matrix and they firmly attach themselves to many different food industry surfaces. Due to this protection, microorganisms within biofilms are much more difficult to eradicate and therefore to control than suspended cells. A bacterium that tends to produce these structures and persist in food processing plants is Listeria monocytogenes. To this effect, many attempts have been made to develop control strategies to be applied in the food industry, although there seems to be no clear direction on how to manage the risk the bacteria poses. There is no standardized protocol that is applied equally to all food sectors, so the strategies for the control of this pathogen depend on the type of surface, the nature of the product, the conditions of the food industry environment, and indeed the budget. The food industry performs different preventive and corrective measures on possible L. monocytogenes-contaminated surfaces. However, a critical evaluation of the sanitization methods applied must be performed to discern whether the treatment can be effective in the long-term. This review will focus on currently used strategies to eliminate biofilms and control their formation in processing facilities in different food sectors (i.e., dairy, meat, fish, chilled vegetables, and ready-to-eat products). The technologies employed for their control will be exemplified and discussed with the objective of understanding how L. monocytogenes can be improved through food safety management systems.
