“…In addition, shrimp treated with PD-3 had the lowest EBC of 2.40 log CFU/g compared with other samples ( P <0.05) during refrigerated storage. Enterobacteriaceae are a large family of Gram-negative bacteria, comprising a number of pathogens such as Salmonella , Klebsiella , Esch-erichia coli , Shigella , and Yersinia pestis ( Posse et al, 2017 ). The spoilage potential of Enterobacteriaceae must be taken into account particularly in the case of contaminated water or delay in the chilled storage of fish after capture ( Sallam, 2007 ).…”

Coffea arabica sediment, a popular agro-by-product from the coffee juice processing industry, contains many phytochemicals, and it is often discarded as waste. The antioxidant and anti-tyrosinase activities of an ethanol extract and its active fractions obtained from Coffea arabica sediment was studied. Additionally, whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) was treated with the extract and fractions, and the quality during refrigerated storage was evaluated. The most active fraction (P<0.05) fraction III from the Coffea arabica sediment extract showed a total phenolic content of 116.5 mg gallic acid equivalent/g, an inhibitory concentration of 50% value of 27.3 μg/mL in the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl hydrazyl test, an absorbance of 3.7 (at 1.0 μg/mL) in the reducing power assay, and 79.5% inhibition for the tyrosinase inhibition test (at 100 μg/mL). Whiteleg shrimp treated with PD-3 and crude extract (CE) retarded the growth of bacteria and spoilage microorganisms in comparison to the control (P<0.05). Lower values in pH, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, and total volatile base content were enumerated in samples treated with PD-3 and CE (P<0.05) compared to controls. Loss in freshness, protein content, and melanosis formation declined with CE and PD-3 treatments. Our findings showed that Coffea arabica sediment has antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. Also, it could be a promising treatment in melanosis prevention, and a natural additive for extending the shelf life of whiteleg shrimp during refrigerated storage; thus an alternative to traditional sulfites.

Characterization of Oral Enterobacteriaceae Prevalence and Resistance Profile in Chronic Kidney Disease Patients Undergoing Peritoneal Dialysis

et al. 2021

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a growing public-health concern worldwide. Patients exhibit compromised immunity and are more prone to infection than other populations. Therefore, oral colonization by clinically relevant members of the Enterobacteriaceae family, major agents of both nosocomial and dialysis-associated infections with frequent prevalence of antibiotic resistances, may constitute a serious risk. Thus, this study aimed to assess the occurrence of clinically relevant enterobacteria and their antibiotic resistance profiles in the oral cavity of CKD patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (CKD-PD) and compare it to healthy controls. Saliva samples from all the participants were cultured on MacConkey Agar and evaluated regarding the levels of urea, ammonia, and pH. Bacterial isolates were identified and characterized for antibiotic resistance phenotype and genotype. The results showed that CKD-PD patients exhibited significantly higher salivary pH, urea, and ammonia levels than controls, that was accompanied by higher prevalence and diversity of oral enterobacteria. Out of all the species isolated, only the prevalence of Raoultella ornithinolytica varied significantly between groups, colonizing the oral cavity of approximately 30% of CKD-PD patients while absent from controls. Antibiotic resistance phenotyping revealed mostly putative intrinsic resistance phenotypes (to amoxicillin, ticarcillin, and cephalothin), and resistance to sulfamethoxazole (~43% of isolates) and streptomycin (~17%). However, all isolates were resistant to at least one of the antibiotics tested and multidrug resistance isolates were only found in CKD-PD group (31,6%). Mobile genetic elements and resistance genes were detected in isolates of the species Raoultella ornithinolytica, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca, Escherichia coli, and Enterobacter asburiae, mostly originated from CKD-PD patients. PD-related infection history revealed that Enterobacteriaceae were responsible for ~8% of peritonitis and ~ 16% of exit-site infections episodes in CKD-PD patients, although no association was found to oral enterobacteria colonization at the time of sampling. The results suggest that the CKD-induced alterations of the oral milieu might promote a dysbiosis of the commensal oral microbiome, namely the proliferation of clinically relevant Enterobacteriaceae potentially harboring acquired antibiotic resistance genes. This study highlights the importance of the oral cavity as a reservoir for pathobionts and antibiotic resistances in CKD patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis.
