Four commercial DNA extraction methods, PrepMan Ultra (Applied Biosystems), InstaGene Matrix (BioRad), DNeasy Tissue kit (Qiagen), and UltraClean (MoBio), were tested for PCR detection of Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli O157: H7, Salmonella, and Staphylococcus aureus in fresh, minimally processed vegetables. For comparative purposes, sensitivity assays with specific PCRs were carried out after DNA extraction with the four methods in green pepper, broccoli, and onion artificially inoculated with the four pathogens separately. As confirmed by statistical analysis, the DNeasy Tissue kit rendered the highest sensitivity values in the three matrices assayed for Salmonella, L. monocytogenes, and E. coli O157:H7 and in onion for S. aureus. Despite being the most expensive of the methods compared, the DNeasy Tissue Kit can be successfully applied for any of the four most commonly studied pathogens, thus saving time and overall reducing the cost of the analysis.

Este trabalho reporta o potencial antibacteriano in vitro e toxicológico in vivo das folhas do jambo (Syzygium malaccense) frente a zebrafish (Danio rerio) adulto (ZFa). As folhas de jambo foram submetidas a desidratação (35 ± 2°C) por 24 horas, trituração e posterior extração de metabólitos por decocção, infusão e maceração com água destilada. Os extratos obtidos foram liofilizados e submetidos a análise de atividade antibacteriana in vitro frente a Gram-negativas (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Salmonella Enteritidis IAL 1132) e Gram-positivas (Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 19115 e Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 27664), bem como ao potencial toxicológico in vivo frente ao ZFa. O extrato obtido por infusão se mostrou mais promissor, pois apresentou concentração mínima bactericida (CMB) e concentração mínima inibitória (CMI) com maior potencial frente às gram- positivas (CMB - 6,25 e CMI - 6,25 mg/ml), bem como às gram-negativas (CMB - 25,0 e 3,125 e CMI - 3,125 mg/ml). Todos os extratos testados não se mostraram tóxicos frente ao zebrafish adulto e não alteraram o sistema locomotor dos mesmos. Desta forma, conclui-se que o extrato aquoso das folhas do jambo vermelho (Syzygium malaccense) obtido por infusão é seguro e pode ser utilizado como conservante natural com maior ação antibacteriana. Este trabalho nos conduz a novos estudos de isolamento e caracterização de princípios bioativos.

ABSTRACT The effects of high-intensity pulsed-light emissions of high or low UV content on the survival of predetermined populations ofListeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli,Salmonella enteritidis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Bacillus cereus, and Staphylococcus aureus were investigated. Bacterial cultures were seeded separately on the surface of tryptone soya-yeast extract agar and were reduced by up to 2 or 6 log10 orders with 200 light pulses (pulse duration, ∼100 ns) of low or high UV content, respectively (P < 0.001).

The survival of gram-positive and gram-negative foodborne pathogens in both commercial and laboratory-prepared kimchi (a traditional fermented food widely consumed in Japan) was investigated. It was found that Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella Enteritidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Listeria monocytogenes could survive in both commercial and laboratory-prepared kimchi inoculated with these pathogens and incubated at 10°C for 7 days. However, when incubation was prolonged, the S. aureus level decreased rapidly from the initial inoculum level to the minimum detectable level within 12 days, whereas Salmonella Enteritidis and L. monocytogenes took 16 days to reach similar levels in commercial kimchi. On the other hand, E. coli O157:H7 remained at high levels throughout the incubation period. For laboratory-prepared kimchi, the S. aureus level decreased rapidly from the initial inoculum level to the minimum detectable level within 12 days, and L. monocytogenes took 20 days to reach a similar level. E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Enteritidis remained at high levels throughout the incubation period. The results of this study suggest that the contamination of kimchi with E. coli O157:H7, Salmonella Enteritidis, S. aureus, or L. monocytogenes at any stage of production or marketing could pose a potential risk.
