Bacillus cereus is known to have the ability to adhere and form biofilms on the surface of stainless steel that causes problems in the food industries. Bacterial biofilms generally can increase resistance to sanitizer treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the ability of peracetic acid-based commercial sanitizer to inactivate B. cereus biofilm on stainless steel (SS) surfaces. Biofilm of B. cereus ATCC 10876 was developed on SS surfaces and treated with 7 commercial peracetic acid-based sanitizers at their recommended dosages. Two sanitizers, i.e. B (peracetic acid and QAC) and F (peracetic acid and acidified water) showing the ability to inactivate B. cereus on solid media at concentration of 200, 400, and 800 ppm were further tested on biofilms with contact times of 1, 3, and 5 minutes. The 48 hours biofilms B. cereus contained 2.78-3.78 CFU/cm2. Both sanitizers B and F had significant effects in inactivating B. cereus biofilm. In general, sanitizer B could reduce more biofilm bacteria at any contact time than sanitizer F. Use of 200 ppm of sanitizer B or F 5 minutes could inactivate 3.04 log CFU/cm2 and 2.68 log CFU/cm2 biofilm, respectively. Exposure of B. cereus biofilm to peracetic acid-based sanitizer resulted in the damage of the extracellular matrix of the biofilms. This study showed that commercial sanitizers containing peracetic acid and quaternary ammonium compounds were effective in inactivating B. cereus biofilms.

Biofilms are structured communities formed by a single or multiple microbial species. Within biofilms, bacteria are embedded into extracellular matrix, allowing them to build macroscopic objects. Biofilm structure can respond to environmental changes such as the presence of antibiotics or predators. By adjusting expression levels of surface and extracellular matrix components, bacteria tune cell-to-cell interactions. One major challenge in the field is the fact that these components are very diverse among different species. Deciphering how physical interactions within biofilms are affected by changes in gene expression is a promising approach to obtaining a more unified picture of how bacteria modulate biofilms. This review focuses on recent advances in characterizing attractive and repulsive forces between bacteria in correlation with biofilm structure, dynamics, and spreading. How bacteria control physical interactions to maximize their fitness is an emerging theme. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Biophysics, Volume 50 is May 2021.

The combined influence of temperature (4, 20, 37 and 50°C) and contact time (10, 20 and 30 min) on the efficacy of eight commercial disinfectants was evaluated by the Association of Official Analytical Chemists use-dilution method. An increase of temperature greatly enhanced the activity of all tested solutions, particularly glutaraldehyde, chlorhexidine acetate and the amphoteric surfactant, whereas contact time mainly enhanced the efficacy of sodium hypochlorite, the quaternary ammonium compound and the amphoteric surfactant. Temperature and contact time influenced the activity profile of the disinfectants tested, with a maximum efficacy near the optimum growth temperature (37°C) of the test organism (Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 15442). This organism was highly resistant to the amphoteric surfactant as well as to the two quaternary ammonium compounds. Classification of disinfectants is proposed on the basis of their mode of action, temperature dependence and activation energies, heat and light stability, and tolerance to organic matter.

Advanced disinfection processes (peracetic acid, UV irradiation and ozonation) have been tested and evaluated through bench and pilot scale studies. 3 log removals of total coliforms, faecal coliforms and faecal streptococci were achieved by 10mg/L peracetic acid at a 10min contact time, by UV radiation at 35mW.s/cm2 and by ozone at 5mg/L for 10min contact time. Higher doses are required for virus removal by UV and PAA and especially for highly resistant viruses such as F-specific bacteriophage MS2. Ozonation has the advantage of having a strong effect on all types of bacteriophages and protozoa cysts even when low treatment doses and short contact times are applied. The results of this study demonstrated that evaluation of disinfection efficiency of ozone, UV and PAA depends on the criteria and methods employed. Standard method (plate count) results showed an important disinfection effect on culturability, while results from non-standard methods (respiratory activity and β-galactosidase activity assay) indicated less reduction of viable cells. Moreover, the results confirm that disinfectants act on bacteria in different ways. It has been clearly demonstrated that b-galactosidase activity is affected by PAA while UV treatment has no or very limited effect on the enzyme activity. Even without sunlight reactivation, bacterial regrowth in seawater was observed after disinfection of sewage effluents. This study also shows that the biodegradability of sewage effluent for an E coli strain was affected differently by the oxidative disinfectants ozone and PAA. Biodegradability should therefore be considered when evaluating the total disinfection efficiency.

In this work, the biosorption of As(V) from aqueous solutions by living cells of Bacillus cereus has been reported. The batch biosorption experiments were conducted with respect to biosorbent dosage 0.5 to 15 g/L, pH 2 to 9, contact time 5 to 90 min, initial concentration 1 to 10 mg/L and temperature 10 to 40 °C. The maximum biosorption capacity of B. cereus for As(V) was found to be 30.04 at pH 7.0, at optimum conditions of contact time of 30 min, biomass dosage of 6 g/L, and temperature of 30 ± 2 °C. Biosorption data were fitted to linearly transformed Langmuir isotherms with R2 (correlation coefficient) >0.99. Bacillus cereus cell surface was characterized using AFM and FTIR. The metal ions were desorbed from B. cereus using both 1 M HCl and 1 M HNO3. The pseudo-second-order model was successfully applied to predict the rate constant of biosorption.

Bacillus cereus is a foodborne pathogen and can form biofilms on food contact surfaces, which causes food hygiene problems. While it is necessary to understand strain-dependent variation to effectively control these biofilms, strain-to-strain variation in the structure of B. cereus biofilms is poorly understood. In this study, B. cereus strains from tatsoi (BC4, BC10, and BC72) and the ATCC 10987 reference strain were incubated at 30°C to form biofilms in the presence of the extracellular matrix-degrading enzymes DNase I, proteinase K, dispase II, cellulase, amyloglucosidase, and α-amylase to assess the susceptibility to these enzymes. The four strains exhibited four different patterns in terms of biofilm susceptibility to the enzymes as well as morphology of surface-attached biofilms or suspended cell aggregates. DNase I inhibited the biofilm formation of strains ATCC 10987 and BC4 but not of strains BC10 and BC72. This result suggests that some strains may not have extracellular DNA, or their extracellular DNA may be protected in their biofilms. In addition, the strains exhibited different patterns of susceptibility to protein- and carbohydrate-degrading enzymes. While other strains were resistant, strains ATCC 10987 and BC4 were susceptible to cellulase, suggesting that cellulose or its similar polysaccharides may exist and play an essential role in their biofilm formation. Our compositional and imaging analyses of strains ATCC 10987 and BC4 suggested that the physicochemical properties of their biofilms are distinct, as calculated by the carbohydrate to protein ratio. Taken together, our study suggests that the extracellular matrix of B. cereus biofilms may be highly diverse and provides insight into the diverse mechanisms of biofilm formation among B. cereus strains.

Biofilm formation by Bacillus cereus 038-2 on stainless steel coupons, sporulation in the biofilm as affected by nutrient availability, temperature, and relative humidity, and the resistance of vegetative cells and spores in biofilm to sanitizers were investigated. Total counts in biofilm formed on coupons immersed in tryptic soy broth (TSB) at 12 and 22°C consisted of 99.94% of vegetative cells and 0.06% of spores. Coupons on which biofilm had formed were immersed in TSB or exposed to air with 100, 97, 93, or 85% relative humidity. Biofilm on coupons immersed in TSB at 12°C for an additional 6 days or 22°C for an additional 4 days contained 0.30 and 0.02% of spores, respectively, whereas biofilm exposed to air with 100 or 97% relative humidity at 22°C for 4 days contained 10 and 2.5% of spores, respectively. Sporulation did not occur in biofilm exposed to 93 or 85% relative humidity at 22°C. Treatment of biofilm on coupons that had been immersed in TSB at 22°C with chlorine (50 μg/ml), chlorine dioxide (50 μg/ml), and a peroxyacetic acid–based sanitizer (Tsunami 200, 40 μg/ml) for 5 min reduced total cell counts (vegetative cells plus spores) by 4.7, 3.0, and 3.8 log CFU per coupon, respectively; total cell counts in biofilm exposed to air with 100% relative humidity were reduced by 1.5, 2.4, and 1.1 log CFU per coupon, respectively, reflecting the presence of lower numbers of vegetative cells. Spores that survived treatment with chlorine dioxide had reduced resistance to heat. It is concluded that exposure of biofilm formed by B. cereus exposed to air at high relative humidity (≥97%) promotes the production of spores. Spores and, to a lesser extent, vegetative cells embedded in biofilm are protected against inactivation by sanitizers. Results provide new insights to developing strategies to achieve more effective sanitation programs to minimize risks associated with B. cereus in biofilm formed on food contact surfaces and on foods.
