“…Different prevalence rates of Salmonella spp. in food, especially poultry and poultry products, have been reported by different authors [12][13][14][15][16][17]. Salmonella contamination rates observed in our country are relatively high (22.92%) and confirm the widespread contamination of pork and chicken meat with Salmonella spp.…”

“…In this study, the resistance to ampicillin was found to be only 20.80%, notably lower than the resistance reported in other countries by Mahmud et al (2011) in Bangladesh (100%) [14] and Thai et al (2012) in Vietnam [34]. This finding is not surprising, since ampicillin is not frequently used in animal therapy, although it is still prefered in the classical therapeutical protocol of salmonellosis in humans.…”

Introduction: The increasing antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella isolates is of major public health concern, but information regarding these aspects is still lacking in Romania. This study focused on a detailed and accurate investigation concerning prevalence, serotypes, and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Salmonella strains, isolated from pork and chicken meat, collected from all regions of Romania in 2011. Methodology: The research was conducted on 650 samples of chicken and pork meat collected from production units and retail markets located in various regions of Romania. A total of 149 Salmonella isolates were recovered (22.92%), serotyped, confirmed by PCR, and further tested for antimicrobial susceptibility. Results: Thirteen Salmonella serovars were identified; predominant serovars included Infantis, Typhimurium, Derby and Colindale. Multiple resistance was found in 83.22% (n = 124) of the isolates. The isolates were frequently resistant to tetracycline (80.53%), streptomycin (81.21%), sulfamethoxazole (87.25%), nalidixic acid (65.10%), and ciprofloxacin (42.95%). Additionally, a markedly lower resistance rate was observed for ampicillin (20.81%), chloramphenicol (16.78%), and ceftazidime (11.41%). Among 137 resistant Salmonella isolates, 35 different resistance patterns were found. Conclusion: A high prevalence of Salmonella spp. and a relatively high resistance rate to multiple antimicrobials was found. This data indicates that chicken and pork meat could constitute a source of human exposure to multidrug-resistant Salmonella and therefore could be considered a potential vehicle of resistant Salmonella foodborne diseases. Further actions are needed to succesfully implement a national surveillance program for better monitoring of these resistant pathogens.

Heated Scallop-Shell Powder Treatment for Deactivation and Removal of Listeria sp. Biofilm Formed at a Low Temperature

et al. 2015

The ability of heated scallop-shell powder HSSP to work against Listeria sp. biofilm formed at a low temperature was investigated. A biofilm of L. innocua ATCC 33090 was grown on a glass plate at 15 for 15 days, then immersed in HSSP slurry. Following treatment, the disinfection ability of the HSSP against the biofilm was non-destructively quantified by conductimetric assay. The biofilm grown at 15 was less sensitive than that grown at 37 to HSSP treatment and alkaline treatment. The biofilm grown at 15 was completely deactivated by 30 min of HSSP treatment 10 mg/mL, pH 12.5 . In contrast, after 30 min treatment with alkaline solution at pH 12.5 or sodium hypochlorite 100 ppm , the activity was reduced by only one order of magnitude. The disinfection efficacy of HSSP 10 mg/mL against L. innocua is similar to or higher than that of sodium hypochlorite 200 ppm . Fluorescence microscopy validated the results of the conductimetric assay. Therefore, HSSP treatment is a potentially powerful alternative control agent against Listeria sp. biofilms that present hazards in the food industry.

“…The earlier drugs Chloramphenicol, Ampicillin, Amoxicillin and Trimethoprim-Sulfamethoxazole are occasionally used as alternatives (Baratto et al, 2012). An increasing rate of antimicrobial resistance in Salmonella has been reported in many developing and developed countries (Uzzau et al, 2000;Mahmud et al, 2011). Furthermore, resistance to combinations of several classes of antimicrobials has led to the emergence of Multi-Drug Resistant (MDR) strains that may pass from food animals to humans (White et al, 2001).…”
