Ceviche is a raw fish dish common in Peru and other Latin American counties. The most characteristic feature of ceviche is the use of lime juice for marinating or “cooking” the raw fish. Confirmed cases of cholera in Peru, New Jersey, and Florida have been associated with ceviche. Although the effect of organic acids on pathogenic bacteria has been well characterized, few data exist on the effect of these acids in seafood systems. The objective of the study was to evaluate the effects of lime juice marination on pathogens likely to be present in ceviche. Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fillet pieces were inoculated with Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Salmonella enterica (>7 log CFU/g) and incubated at 25 and 4°C for 30 or 120 min in the presence of fresh lime juice at concentrations typical for the preparation of ceviche. Similar levels of cells were also inoculated into fresh lime juice without tilapia. Surviving cells were enumerated on selective (xylose lysine Tergitol 4 and thiosulfate-bile-citrate-sucrose) and nonselective (tryptic soy agar) media. V. parahaemolyticus levels were reduced to below detection limits (~5-log reduction) under all conditions studied. Salmonella strains on tilapia were much more resistant to inactivation and were only slightly reduced (~1- to 2-log reduction). Salmonella and V. parahaemolyticus inoculated directly into lime juice without tilapia were all reduced to below detection limits (~5-log reduction). A typical ceviche recipe reduces V. parahaemolyticus risk significantly but is less effective for control of S. enterica.

Effects of five different concentrations of sodium chloride (5 to 25%) treated fish flesh was tested on oviposition, growth and developmental parameters of blowfly, Lucilia cuprina (Wiedemann). The salt worked as an oviposition deterrent in the female flies. The highest amount of eggs (0.247 ± 0.0464 g) was oviposited on lowest salt concentration (5%) and the minimum amount (0.0003 ± 0.0004 g) of eggs was laid on the highest salt concentration (25%). The eggs laid on 20 and 25% salt treated fishes were not hatched. The larval periods were significantly affected by 10 and 15% salt treated fish while the pupal periods were prolonged at 15% of salt treated fish (p < 0.05). Average larval and pupal durations in control were 4.543 ± 0.18 and 4.833 ± 0.753 days, respectively, whereas at 15% salt average larval and pupal durations were 5.937 ± 0.133 and 5.5 ± 0.548 days, respectively. The average weight of the larvae and pupae were also reduced with the high concentrations of salt. Pupation rate also significantly reduced at higher concentrations of salt. These results suggest that application of 15% salt in raw fish can effectively protect sun?drying fish from blowfly infestation. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/dujbs.v23i1.19825 Dhaka Univ. J. Biol.

Polymyxin B sulfate (PB) added to salt broth (SB) for selective enrichment of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was destroyed by autoclaving. Losses were about 49% at pH 7.4 and 97% at pH 8.8. Additionally, certain raw fish when added to salt polymyxin broth (SPB) caused a loss of PB, probably due to adsorption; vertebrate fish (red snapper and herring) caused a loss of about 72% of PB, but shellfish (oyster and clam) did not cause any loss.

Abstract A lytic bacteriophage Vp-9, designated vP_VpaS_VP-RY-9, was isolated from sewage collected in Dalian, China. The double-stranded DNA genome of phage vP_VpaS_VP-RY-9 is 81.604 kb long, which has a mol% G + C content of 45.75, containing 117 ORFs, but any tRNA was found. Comparison of its genomic features and phylogenetic analysis revealed that phage vP_VpaS_VP-RY-9 is a novel member of the order Caudovirales, family Siphoviridae, genus Vibrio. The present results suggest that phage vP_VpaS_VP-RY-9 may represent a potential therapeutic agent against Vibrio parahaemolyticus.

Abstract Phage therapy is a promising approach to control foodborne pathogenic bacteria. In this study, a lytic phage against Vibrio parahaemolyticus, designated Vibrio phage V09, was isolated from surface water in Shanghai, China and its genomic DNA was sequenced. The data demonstrated that phage V09 is a double-stranded DNA phage. Its genome consists of 243,881 base pairs (42.6% guanine-cytosine content) encoding 377 open reading frames and with 27 tRNAs detected. According to phylogenetic analysis, phage V09 can be considered a member of the subfamily Tevenvirinae and family Myoviridae.
