Abstract:This research explores the interaction between Shiga toxin‐producing Escherichia coli (STEC) O157:H7 and bacteria species commonly found in beef processing environments, specifically Carnobacterium, Lactobacillus, Comamonas, Raoultella, and Pseudomonas. The study investigated how various environmental conditions impact the formation of biofilms and the ability of O157:H7 to transfer from multispecies biofilm onto beef surfaces. For this purpose, a mixture of lactic acid bacteria (LAB), spoilage bacteria (106 C… Show more
