Abstract
Salmonella remains a top bacterial pathogen implicated in several food-borne outbreaks, despite the use of antimicrobials and sanitizers during production and processing. While these chemicals have been effective, Salmonella has shown the ability to survive and persist in poultry processing environments. This can be credited to its microbial ability to adapt and develop/acquire tolerance and/or resistance to different antimicrobial agents including oxidizers, acids (organic and inorganic), phenols, and surfactants. Moreover, there are several factors in processing environments that can limit the efficacy of these antimicrobials, thus allowing survival and persistence. This mini-review examines the antimicrobial activity of common disinfectants/sanitizers used in poultry processing environments and the ability of Salmonella to respond with innate or acquired tolerance and survive exposure to persists in such environments. Instead of relying on a single antimicrobial agent, the right combination of different disinfectants needs to be developed to target multiple pathways within Salmonella.

Abstract
Bacterial biofilm is a major concern of dairy industry due to its association with milk contamination and its derived products. Algerian pasteurized milk shelf-life does not exceed one day, which may reflect the high level of contamination of this product and presence of extracellular enzymes such as lipases and proteases. This work aimed to investigate the microbial biodiversity in milk-processing surfaces of a dairy plant in Algeria. Therefore, stainless steel cylinders were placed in piping system of the dairy system before and after pasteurization of the milk, being removed after 7 days, for biofilm maturation and microorganism isolation and identification by mass spectrometry. Fifty-nine Gram-positive isolates were identified, namely Bacillus altitudinis, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus weithenstephanensis, Enterococcus casseliflavus, Enterococcus faecium, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. In addition, twenty-four Gram-negative isolates were identified, namely Acinetobacter schindleri Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter xiangfangensis, Leclercia adecarboxylata, and Raoultella ornithinolytica. Bacterial isolates showed ability for production of extracellular enzymes, being 49 % capable of both proteolytic and lipolytic activities. Milk isolates were tested for the ability to form biofilms on stainless steel. The cell numbers recovered on plate count agar plates from stainless steel biofilms ranged from 3.52 to 6.92 log10 CFU/cm2, being the maximum number detected for Enterococcus casseliflavus. Bacterial isolates showed intermediate and/or resistant profiles to multiple antibiotics. Resistance to amoxicillin, cefoxitin and/or erythromycin was commonly found among the bacterial isolates.

Food grade disinfectants based on hydrogen peroxide/peracetic acid and sodium hypochlorite interfere with the adhesion of Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes to stainless steel of differing surface roughness. BIOFOULING 2023; 39:990-1003.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the potential of the bacterium Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes to adhere to stainless steel discs with differing degrees of surface roughness (Ra = 25.20-961.90 nm). Stainless steel is a material commonly used in the food industry for processing equipment, which is regularly exposed to cleaning procedures. The investigation included the commercial disinfectants hydrogen peroxide/peracetic acid and sodium hypochlorite which were evaluated for their antibacterial and anti-adhesion activity. The adhesion was assessed by the standard plate count method, while the broth microdilution method CLSI M07-A10 was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of the disinfectants. Based on the MIC values, both disinfectants exerted significant inhibitory effects with MIC values for hydrogen peroxide/peracetic acid and sodium hypochlorite of 250 µg ml-1 and 500 µg ml-1, respectively. Whereas the MBC values were equal to the MIC for all bacteria except for E. coli with values 2-fold higher than the MIC. Obtained results also revealed that all tested bacteria were able to adhere to stainless steel surfaces, although differences were found for strains and surface roughness. The lowest adhesion rate of each strain was recorded on the roughest stainless steel disc at a Ra of 961.90 nm. Further, at a concentration of 1 MIC, the disinfectant sodium hypochlorite reduced initial bacterial adhesion to stainless steel surfaces to a significantly greater extent than the disinfectant hydrogen peroxide/peracetic acid. These findings are consistent with the results obtained by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis, which indicates the great applicability of the tested disinfectants for the control of bacterial adhesion in the food industry.

Peracetic acid disinfection induces antibiotic-resistant E. coli into VBNC state but ineffectively eliminates the transmission potential of ARGs. WATER RESEARCH 2023; 242:120260.

Abstract
The occurrence of a viable but nonculturable (VBNC) state in antibiotic-resistant E. coli (AR E. coli) and inefficient degradation of their antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) may cause potential health risks during disinfection. Peracetic acid (PAA) is an alternative disinfectant for replacing chlorine-based oxidants in wastewater treatment, and the potential of PAA to induce a VBNC state in AR E. coli and to remove the transformation functionality of ARGs were investigated for the first time. Results show that PAA exhibits excellent performance in inactivating AR E. coli (over 7.0-logs) and persistently inhibiting its regeneration. After PAA disinfection, insignificant changes in the ratio of living to dead cells (∼4%) and the level of cell metabolism, indicating that AR E. coli were induced into VBNC states. Unexpectedly, PAA was found to induce AR E. coli into VBNC state by destroying the proteins containing reactive amino acids at thiol, thioether and imidazole groups, rather than the result of membrane damage, oxidative stress, lipid destruction and DNA disruption in the conventional disinfection processes. Moreover, the result of poor reactivity between PAA and plasmid strands and bases confirmed that PAA hardly reduced the abundance of ARGs and damaged the plasmid's integrity. Transformation assays and real environment validation indicated that PAA-treated AR E. coli could release large abundance of naked ARGs with high-efficiency transformation functionality (∼5.4 × 10-4 - ∼8.3 × 10-6) into the environment. This study has significant environmental implications for assessing the transmission of antimicrobial resistance during PAA disinfection.

Abstract
This study investigated the antibacterial and antibiofilm mechanism of ultrasound (US) combined with citral nanoemulsion (CLNE) against Staphylococcus aureus and mature biofilm. Combined treatments resulted in greater reductions in bacterial numbers compared to ultrasound or CLNE treatments alone. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), flow cytometry (FCM), protein nucleic acid leakage, and N-phenyl-l-naphthylamine (NPN) uptake analysis showed that the combined treatment disrupted cell membrane integrity and permeability. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) assays indicated that US+CLNE exacerbated cellular oxidative stress and membrane lipid peroxidation. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) revealed that the synergistic processing of ultrasound and CLNE resulted in cell rupture and collapse. In addition, US+CLNE showed a more pronounced removal effect than both alone in the biofilm on the stainless steel sheet. US+CLNE reduced biomass, the number of viable cells in the biofilm, cell viability and EPS polysaccharide contents. The results of CLSM also showed that US+CLNE disrupted the structure of the biofilm. This research elucidates the synergistic antibacterial and anti-biofilm mechanism of ultrasound combined citral nanoemulsion, which provides a safe and efficient sterilization method for the food industry.

Antibiotics (Basel) 2023; 12:antibiotics12020209.

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes biofilms are ubiquitous in the food-processing environment, where they frequently show resistance against treatment with disinfectants such as peracetic acid (PAA) due to sub-lethal damage resulting in biofilm persistence or the formation of secondary biofilms. L. monocytogenes serovar ½a EGD-e biofilms were cultivated under continuous flow conditions at 10 °C, 22 °C, and 37 °C and exposed to industrially relevant PAA concentrations. The effect of PAA on biofilm metabolic activity and biomass was monitored in real-time using the CEMS-BioSpec system, in addition to daily measurement of biofilm-derived planktonic cell production. Biofilm-derived planktonic cell yields proved to be consistent with high yields during biofilm establishment (≥106 CFU.mL-1). The exposure of biofilms to the minimum inhibitory PAA concentration (0.16%) resulted in only a brief disruption in whole-biofilm metabolic activity and biofilm biomass accumulation. The recovered biofilm accumulated more biomass and greater activity, but cell yields remained similar. Increasing concentrations of PAA (0.50%, 1.5%, and 4.0%) had a longer-lasting inhibitory effect. Only the maximum dose resulted in a lasting inhibition of biofilm activity and biomass-a factor that needs due consideration in view of dilution in industrial settings. Better disinfection monitoring tools and protocols are required to adequately address the problem of Listeria biofilms in the food-processing environment, and more emphasis should be placed on biofilms serving as a "factory" for cell proliferation rather than only a survival mechanism.

Stability and Antibiofilm Efficiency of Slightly Acidic Electrolyzed Water Against Mixed-Species of Listeria monocytogenes and Staphylococcus aureus. Front Microbiol 2022; 13:865918. [PMID: 35633663 PMCID: PMC9135065 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2022.865918] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2022] [Accepted: 03/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
In the natural environment, most microorganisms live in mixed-species biofilms, in which the metabolism and growth of organisms are different from that in single-species biofilms. Adhesive bacteria and their biofilms on the surface of food processing equipment are the sources of cross-contamination, leading to the risk for humans. Slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) has been proposed as a novel sanitizer in the food and agriculture industry. In this study, we investigated the changes in the physical properties of SAEW under different conditions and the disinfection abilities of SAEW against spore-forming and non-spore-forming pathogens. Furthermore, we examined the disinfection abilities of SAEW after 12 months of shelf life on a mixed-species biofilm of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A and Staphylococcus aureus. The results showed that SAEW at 30 and 50 ppm achieved all-kill of the spore-forming pathogen Bacillus cereus within 30 s. Changes in the ACC and pH of the produced SAEW were generally affected by the storage conditions. Both spore-forming and non-spore-forming pathogens were not detected under treatment with 50 ppm SAEW for 5 min under HDPE-closed conditions throughout the whole storage period. Moreover, 25 mg/L SAEW can inactivate L. monocytogenes Scott A and S. aureus biofilm cells in ~2.45 and 2.57 log CFU/mL in biofilms within 5-min treatment. However, the decline of the two bacteria in the mixed-species biofilm was 1.95 and 1.43 log CFU/mL, respectively. The changes in the cell membrane permeability of the mixed-species biofilm under treatment with SAEW were observed by using atomic force microscopy and confocal laser scanning microscopy. L. monocytogenes Scott A was more sensitive to SAEW in the mixed-species biofilm cells. These findings exhibited strong antibiofilm activities of SAEW in impairing biofilm cell membranes, decreasing cell density, and eliminating biofilm, which suggest that SAEW is an excellent antibacterial agent in the food processing industries.

Abstract
An efficient antibacterial nanoemulsion was prepared using zein and NaCas to encapsulate ginger essential oil (GEO). Physical, optical, and mechanical properties as well as the antibacterial activities of GEO nanoemulsion were investigated. At 1:1 mass ratio of zein/NaCas, the GEO nanoemulsion possessed the highest solubility, entrapment efficiency and stability. The GEO/zein/NaCas complex was confirmed by ultraviolet and fluorescence spectroscopy. The addition of GEO led to more amorphous structure formation and the secondary structure changes of zein/NaCas improved the solubility and stability of GEO. GEO nanoemulsion inactivated two common foodborne bacteria, namely, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, by destroying the cell membrane. Meanwhile, the GEO nanoemulsion exhibited better preservation effects on chilled chicken breasts than non-emulsified GEO and could effectively prolong the shelf life of chicken breasts for 6 days. This research provides a green and low-cost method for preparing GEO nanoemulsion to control the risk of foodborne pathogens.

Abstract
Persistent infections caused by Staphylococcus aureus biofilms pose a major threat to global public health. 10-Hydroxy-2-decenoic acid (10-HDA), a main fatty acid in royal jelly, has been shown to possess various biological activities. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of 10-HDA on the biofilms and virulence of S. aureus and its potential molecular mechanism. Quantitative crystal violet staining indicated that 10-HDA significantly reduced the biofilm biomass at sub-minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) levels (1/32MIC to 1/2MIC). Scanning electron microscope (SEM) observations demonstrated that 10-HDA inhibited the secretion of extracellular polymeric substances, decreased bacterial adhesion and aggregation, and disrupted biofilm architecture. Moreover, 10-HDA could significantly decrease the biofilm viability and effectively eradicated the mature biofilms. It was also found that the hemolytic activity of S. aureus was significantly inhibited by 10-HDA. qRT-PCR analyses revealed that the expressions of global regulators sarA, agrA, and α-hemolysin gene hla were downregulated by 10-HDA. These results indicate that 10-HDA could be used as a potential natural antimicrobial agent to control the biofilm formation and virulence of S. aureus.

Abstract
Aspergillus and Fusarium cause a broad spectrum of infections in humans, mainly in immunocompromised patients. Among these, patients undergoing hemodialysis are highly susceptible to infections, requiring a constant and adequate environmental disinfection program. Nevertheless, monitoring the residual disinfectants can contribute to the morbidity and mortality reduction in these patients. Here, we evaluated the susceptibility of Aspergillus spp. (n=19) and Fusarium spp. (n=13) environmental isolates against disinfectants (acetic acid, citric acid, peracetic acid, sodium hypochlorite, and sodium metabisulphite) at different concentrations and time exposures. Also, we investigated the in vivo toxicity of the peracetic acid residual concentration in mice. Fusarium isolates were identified by F. equiseti, F. oxysporum and F. solani while Aspergillus presented clinically relevant species (A. fumigatus, A. niger and A. terreus) and environmental ones. Against planktonic cells, only two disinfectants (acetic acid and sodium hypochlorite) showed a fungicidal effect on Fusarium spp., while only one (sodium hypochlorite) was effective against Aspergillus spp. Both fungi formed robust in vitro biofilms with large amounts of the extracellular matrix, as evidenced by electron micrographs. Exposure of fungal biofilms to disinfectants showed sensitivity to three (acetic, citric, and peracetic acids), although the concentrations and times of exposure varied according to the fungal genus. Mice exposure to the residual dose of peracetic acid during 60 weeks showed anatomopathological, hematological, and biochemical changes. The implementation of news control measures and those that already exist can help reduce infections, the second cause of death and morbidity in these patients, besides providing safety and well-being to them, a priority of any quality health program.

Abstract
Peracetic acid (PAA) has been widely used as a disinfectant in many industries; its use in poultry processing is steadily increasing. However, information related to the potential inhibitory effect of PAA solutions (PAA and H2O2) on biological wastewater treatment processes used by the poultry processing industry is extremely limited. The work reported here assessed the long-term effect of PAA solution on aerobic degradation and nitrification in three bioreactors fed with poultry processing wastewater by quantifying the extent of COD removal and nitrification rates. Changes in culture viability, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and microbial community structure were also evaluated. COD removal and nitrification were not affected by H2O2 and PAA solutions added to the wastewater before feeding (indirect addition). However, both processes were significantly affected by high levels of H2O2 (i.e., 27 mg/L) and PAA solution (i.e., 60/8.4 mg/L PAA/H2O2) directly added to the reactors. Directly added PAA/H2O2 at 40/5.6 mg/L was the lowest dose resulting in nitrification inhibition. Fast recovery of COD removal and nitrification was observed when direct addition of H2O2 and PAA solution ended. Cell viability measurements revealed that the negative impact on nitrification was predominantly attributed to enzyme inhibition rather than to loss of cell viability. The impact on nitrification was not related to intracellular ROS levels. Microbiome analysis showed major shifts in community composition during the long-term addition of H2O2 and even more with PAA addition. No significant time-trend change in the relative abundance of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria or nitrite-oxidizing bacteria was observed, further supporting the conclusion that the negative impact on nitrification was attributed mainly to enzyme inhibition.

Detection and Potential Virulence of Viable but Non-Culturable (VBNC) Listeria monocytogenes: A Review. Microorganisms 2021; 9:microorganisms9010194.

Abstract
The detection, enumeration, and virulence potential of viable but non-culturable (VBNC) pathogens continues to be a topic of discussion. While there is a lack of definitive evidence that VBNC Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) pose a public health risk, recent studies suggest that Lm in its VBNC state remains virulent. VBNC bacteria cannot be enumerated by traditional plating methods, so the results from routine Lm testing may not demonstrate a sample's true hazard to public health. We suggest that supplementing routine Lm testing methods with methods designed to enumerate VBNC cells may more accurately represent the true level of risk. This review summarizes five methods for enumerating VNBC Lm: Live/Dead BacLightTM staining, ethidium monoazide and propidium monoazide-stained real-time polymerase chain reaction (EMA- and PMA-PCR), direct viable count (DVC), 5-cyano-2,3-ditolyl tetrazolium chloride-4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (CTC-DAPI) double staining, and carboxy-fluorescein diacetate (CDFA) staining. Of these five supplementary methods, the Live/Dead BacLightTM staining and CFDA-DVC staining currently appear to be the most accurate for VBNC Lm enumeration. In addition, the impact of the VBNC state on the virulence of Lm is reviewed. Widespread use of these supplemental methods would provide supporting data to identify the conditions under which Lm can revert from its VBNC state into an actively multiplying state and help identify the environmental triggers that can cause Lm to become virulent. Highlights: Rationale for testing for all viable Listeria (Lm) is presented. Routine environmental sampling and plating methods may miss viable Lm cells. An overview and comparison of available VBNC testing methods is given. There is a need for resuscitation techniques to recover Lm from VBNC. A review of testing results for post VBNC virulence is compared.

Abstract
Mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs) are novel biosurfactants performing excellent physical-chemical properties as well as bioactivities. This study is aimed to explore the antibacterial and antibiofilm activity of mannosylerythritol lipids against foodborne gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. The results of growth curve and survival rate revealed the significant inhibitory effect of MELs against S. aureus. The visualized pictures by scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope exposed apparent morphological and ultrastructure changes of MEL-treated cells. Furthermore, flow cytometry confirmed that MELs have promoted cell apoptosis and damaged the cell membrane. Notably, MEL-A also exhibited outstanding antibiofilm activity against S. aureus biofilm on different material surfaces including polystyrene, glass, and stainless steel, verified by confocal laser scanning microscope. These findings suggest that the antimicrobial activity of MELs is related to inhibit planktonic cells and biofilm of S. aureus, indicating that it has potential to be an alternative to antibacterial agents and preservatives applied into food processing.Key Points • MELs have strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus.• MELs mainly damage the cell membrane of Staphylococcus aureus.• Mannosylerythritol lipids inhibit the bacterial adhesion to remove biofilm.

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen which occurs mainly in ready-to-eat food products, especially in artisanal products manufactured from raw milk such as some types of cheese, meat products and leafy vegetables. L. monocytogenes requires special attention in the food industry because of its ability to survive under adverse conditions and form biofilms on different surfaces in food processing environments. The potential for product contamination by L. monocytogenes strains in the industrial environment emphasizes the importance of preventive measures in the food industry. This review presents an overview on the main characteristics, pathogenicity and occurrence data of L. monocytogenes in Brazilian foods. The main prevention measures to avoid contamination by L. monocytogenes in foods are also highlighted, especially the adoption of quality assurance programs by the food industry.

Abstract
The main goal of this work was to approach food industry conditions in the comparison of the susceptibility of biofilms of Listeria monocytogenes to the biocides benzalkonium chloride (BAC) and peracetic acid (PAA). Twelve isolates of L. monocytogenes, including nine well characterized BAC resistant strains were used. Biofilms were produced on stainless steel coupons (SSC), at 11 °C (refrigeration temperature) or at 25 °C (room temperature), in culture media simulating clean (nutrient limiting) or soiled (nutrient rich) growth conditions. Neither different nutrient availability nor growth temperature showed significant effect (p > .05) on biofilm formation. PAA confirmed to be more effective than BAC in biofilm elimination. Biofilms formed under nutritional stress tended to differentiate more the response to BAC of the resistant or sensitive strains, but the resistant or sensitive phenotype of the planktonic cells did not dictate biofilm susceptibility.

Abstract
The biofilm formation of Staphylococcus aureus on food contact surfaces is the main risk of food contamination. In the present study, we firstly investigated the inhibitory effect of quinic acid (QA) on biofilm formed by S. aureus. Crystal violet staining assay and microscopy analysis clearly showed that QA at sub-MIC concentrations was able to significantly reduce the biofilm biomass and cause a collapse on biofilm architecture. Meanwhile, fibrinogen binding assay showed that QA had obviously effect on the S. aureus bacteria adhesion. XTT reduction assay and confocal laser scanning microscopic images revealed that QA significantly decreased metabolic activity and viability of biofilm cells. In addition, qRT-PCR analysis explored the potential inhibitory mechanism of QA against biofilm formation, which indicated that QA significantly repressed the gene sarA and activated the gene agrA. Moreover, QA exhibited a highly ability to reduce the number of sessile S. aureus cells adhered on the stainless steel. So, it was suggested that QA could be used as a promising antibiofilm agent to control biofilm formation of S. aureus. QA effectively inhibited S. aureus biofilm formation. The key genes of biofilm inhibition induced by QA were agrA and sarA.![]()

Abstract
Although many efforts have been made to control Listeria monocytogenes in the food industry, growing pervasiveness amongst the population over the last decades has made this bacterium considered to be one of the most hazardous foodborne pathogens. Its outstanding biocide tolerance capacity and ability to promiscuously associate with other bacterial species forming multispecies communities have permitted this microorganism to survive and persist within the industrial environment. This review is designed to give the reader an overall picture of the current state-of-the-art in L. monocytogenes sessile communities in terms of food safety and legislation, ecological aspects and biocontrol strategies.

Abstract
There is an increasing trend in the food industry on the Listeria monocytogenes biofilm formation and inhibition. This is attributed to its easy survival on contact surfaces, resistance to disinfectants or antibiotics and growth under the stringent condition used for food processing and preservation thereby leading to food contamination products by direct or indirect exposure. Though, there is a lack of conclusive evidences about the mechanism of biofilm formation, in this review, the concept of biofilm formation and various chemical, physical, and green technology approaches to prevent or control the biofilm formed is discussed. State-of-the-art approaches ranging from the application of natural to synthetic molecules with high effectiveness and non-toxicity targeted at the different steps of biofilm formation could positively influence the biofilm inhibition in the future.

Biofilm-producing ability of Listeria monocytogenes isolates from Brazilian cheese processing plants. Food Res Int 2016; 91:88-91.

Abstract
The persistence of Listeria monocytogenes in food industry environments has been associated to the ability of specific isolates to produce biofilms. This study aimed to evaluate the biofilm production of 85 L. monocytogenes strains previously isolated from samples of cheese, brine and the environment of two cheese processing plants located in São Paulo, Brazil. The L. monocytogenes isolates belonged to serotypes 4b, 1/2b and 1/2c, yielded 30 different pulsotypes by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and were submitted to biofilm-formation assays on polystyrene microplates and stainless steel coupons incubated statically at 35±0.5°C for 48h. All isolates from different sources showed ability to produce biofilms on polystyrene microplates, from which 21 (24.7%) also produced biofilms on stainless steel. Four isolates (4.7%) belonging to four different pulsotypes were classified as strong biofilms-producers on polystyrene microplates, while isolates belonging to four pulsotypes previously evaluated as persistent had weak or moderate ability to produce biofilms on polystyrene microplates. No relationship between the serotypes or pulsotypes and their biofilm-forming ability was observed. This study highlights the high variability in the biofilm production among L. monocytogenes strains collected from cheese and cheese-production environment, also indicating that strong biofilm-formation ability is not a key factor for persistence of specific isolates in cheese processing plants.
