El objetivo del estudio fue realizar una evaluación microbiológica de carcasas de pollo y de ambientes de los centros de faenamiento avícola en la provincia de Coronel Portillo, Ucayali. Se recolectaron muestras de 30 carcasas de pollo y de seis ambientes provenientes de seis centros de faenamiento (CF) (dos centros formales y cuatro centros informales), mediante un muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia. Las muestras de las carcasas se tomaron mediante el método de hisopado de superficie y las muestras de los ambientes mediante el plaqueo ambiental. En las carcasas se encontró Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Proteus spp, Salmonella spp. y Bacillus spp, con recuentos de bacterias mesófilas aerobias superiores a los límites máximos permisibles (LMP) de 5 Log UFC/cm2 en 2 CFI, así como recuentos de enterobacterias por encima a 2 Log UFC/cm2 en todas las muestras. Los ambientes tuvieron promedios de recuentos de 3.11 ± 1.28 Log UFC/placa de mesófilos aerobios, 1.34 ± 0.49 Log UFC/placa de enterobacterias y 39.17 ± 50.06 UFC/placa de hongos. La evaluación demostró la presencia de varios géneros bacterianos en las carcasas de pollo en los seis centros de faenamiento, especialmente en los centros informales, con valores en los recuentos de aerobios mesófilos que sobrepasan los límites máximos permisibles (LMP), además de cargas muy elevadas de bacterias y hongos en sus ambientes.

The sanitary evaluation of equipment and hands is fundamental to investigate the presence of pathogens in the dairy industry. Then, this study aims to evaluate the sanitization of equipment, workers’ hands, raw and pasteurized milk in goat milk dairies in the Cariri region, state of Paraíba.  Collected 32 samples of four dairies represented by letters A, B, C, and D. The followings contents were analyzed: mesophiles, total and thermotolerant coliforms, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Samonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes in the reception tank, pasteurization tank, packing machine, package, wall, workers’ hand, and each dairy’s raw and pasteurized milk. After isolation, 84 colonies were confirmed by MALDI TOF. The indicator microorganisms presented variations for the workers’ hands, while A and B stayed within the patterns. For the equipment, only dairy B was within limits. They were out of the standard for mesophiles, total coliforms, and thermotolerant regarding raw and pasteurized milk. The microorganisms, the Enterobacteriaceae family presented a higher frequency, with 77.38%, and within this family, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella spp., and Enterobacter spp. were the most prevalent. Gram-positive corresponded to 22.62%, Bacillus spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., and Macrococcus caseolyticus. Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp. were not isolated. These demonstrate failures in goat milk processing with pathogenic bacteria in several dairy plants, indicating the need to adjust the product’s quality control.

The aim of this study was to determine the antibiogram of bacterial isolates from Tympanotonus fuscatus var. radula sold in markets in Nasarawa State. Nigeria. Samples of Tympanotonus fuscatus var. radula (periwinkles) were bought from soup ingredient sellers at different sale locations in Keffi, Masaka and Orange markets and were analyzed using standard bacteriological methods. The bacterial isolates were identified using morphological, cultural and biochemical techniques. The total bacteria count varied from 1.18–3.20 x 108 CFU/g for the raw samples while the total bacterial count for the boiled samples varied from 0–1.57 x 108 CFU/g. Periwinkle samples with shells from Masaka market had the highest bacterial load with a mean total bacterial count of 2.94 x 10⁸ CFU/g and mean total coliform count of 2.80 x 10⁶ CFU/g. Raw periwinkle samples with shells had a higher bacterial load than samples without shells. There was also a drastic reduction in the bacterial load in the periwinkle samples after boiling under laboratory conditions. The bacteria isolated were Bacillus spp. and Staphylococcus aureus were the Gram-positive bacteria isolated. Enterobacter spp., Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Pseudomonas spp., Serratia spp. and Proteus spp. The most frequently occurring gram positive bacteria was Escherichia coli with an isolation frequency of 6(24%), the least frequently occurring was Bacillus spp., 8(32)%. Antibiotic susceptibility test showed that all the gram negative organisms exhibited sensitivity to ciprofloxacin: Escherichia coli (32 mm), Enterobacter spp. (41.5 mm), Proteus spp. (40.0 mm), Salmonella spp. (37.0 mm), Serratia spp. (26.0 mm), Pseudomonas spp. (23.0 mm). All the gram negative organisms showed marked resistance to vancomycin: Escherichia coli (12.0 mm), Enterobacter spp. (10.0 mm), Proteus spp. (11.0 mm), Salmonella spp. (5.0 mm), Serratia spp. (10.0 mm) and Pseudomonas spp. (4.5 mm).

Objectif : Dans un contexte de ressources limitées, la connaissance du profil des germes contaminant les blocs opératoires et leur résistance aux antibiotiques constitue un maillon de la prévention des infections associées aux soins. Ainsi, l'objectif de notre étude était de déterminer la sensibilité aux antibiotiques des bactéries isolées de l'environnement du bloc opératoire de l'Hôpital National de Zinder. Matériels et Méthodes : Nous avions mené une étude prospective, transversale et descriptive de Janvier à Mars 2020. Les prélèvements avaient été réalisés par écouvillonnage le matin avant le début des activités et avaient concerné les mains et blouses des chirurgiens, le matériel de chirurgie et les équipements du bloc opératoire. Nous avions effectué l'isolement, l'identification et l'antibiogramme des souches bactériennes au niveau du laboratoire de biologie par des techniques conventionnelles classiques. Résultats : Au total, 74 prélèvements avaient été effectués. La culture était positive dans 58,10% des cas (43/74). Les bactéries isolées étaient constituées de 25 souches de Bacillus spp (58,13%), 10 souches de bactéries Gram négatif non fermentaires avec Acinetobacter bamanii (14,0%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (7,0%) et Stenotrophomonas maltophilia (2,3%) et 8 souches d'entérobactéries représentées par Serratia marcescens (4,7%), Enterobacter cloacae (4,7%), Enterobacter aerogenes (4,7%), Escherichia coli (2,3%) et Klebsiella pneumoniae (2,3%).Concernant la sensibilité des souches aux antibiotiques, une seule souche d'Enterobacter aerogenes était résistante à l'Imipenème et 3 des 9 entérobactéries isolées étaient productrices de bétalactamase à spectre élargi. Conclusion : Au vu de résultats de cette étude, il convient de mettre en place des procédures adaptées en vue d'une meilleure surveillance microbiologique des blocs opératoires. Cela contribuera sans doute à la prévention des infections associées aux soins.

The presence of Vibrio spp. and Salmonella spp. in crabs marketed at the Bezerra de Menezes Ave., Fortaleza, State of Ceará, Brazil, was assessed between February and May, 2003. The number of individuals sampled in each one of the fifteen weekly samplings ranged between four and eight. Seven strains of Salmonella, from four different samplings, were identified, being five of them identified as serotype S. Senftenberg and two as S. Poona. All strains of Salmonella were sensitive to the tested anti-microbial drugs, with the exception of tetracycline and nalidixic acid, for which an intermediary sensibility was found. The MPN's for Vibrio ranged between 110/g and 110,000/g. Of the forty five Vibrio strains isolated from the crab samples, only 10 were identified up to the species level: two V. alginolyticus and eight V. parahaemolyticus. Bacteria belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonaceae families were also identified, namely Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Enterobacter cloacae, Pantoea agglomerans and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The proper cooking of the animals is recommended in order to avoid problems for the consumers of this crustacean.

The keypads of Automated Teller Machines (ATMs) are subjected to several microbial contaminations due to their large dermal contact by numerous users and different personal hygiene practice. The study investigated the bacterial diversity and level of contamination obtainable on the ATM keypads during transactions and antibiotics susceptibility pattern of the isolates. The population of culturable bacterial isolates was determined by plating. Isolates were characterized culturally, morphologically and biochemically. Antibiotic susceptibility pattern of the isolates was determined using the disc diffusion method. The total culturable heterotrophic bacterial counts ranssged from 5.23 to 9.25 log cfu/g. The bacterial identified and frequency of occurrence is Staphylococcus aureus (17.5%), Escherichia coli (22.5%), Bacillus spp (17.5%), Salmonella spp (10.0%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10.0%), Proteus spp (7.5%) and Klebsiella spp (15.0%) respectively. Staphylococcus aureus were more susceptible to Chloramphenicol (37mm) and were more resistant to Rifampicin (00mm) and Levofloxacin (00mm) respectively. The Gram negative isolates in the study were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and gentamycin and more resistant to ceporex, nalidixic acid, septrin and ampicillin respectively.  The highest gram negative isolates that showed more susceptible to all the used gram negative antibiotics were Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp while the lowest were Klebsiella spp and Proteus spp respectively. The study has revealed that bacterial contamination on ATM keypads is of health significance and could result to public health challenges if not properly managed. Therefore, adequate hand- washing hygienic practices and cleaning agents are advocated towards reducing the related ill- health among ATM users.

The study was conducted to monitor the microbial assessment in oropharyngeal swab, cloacal swab and faecal samples of ostrich and also update knowledge on antimicrobial sensitivity of isolated organisms. The study was performed at Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science & Technology University (HSTU) ostrich farm from January to June, 2016. A total 75 samples were randomly collected from 8 ostriches at different age of which 25 oropharyngeal, 25 cloacal swabs sample and 25 were faeces samples. The organisms were isolated by using standard microbiological method. The result revealed that the average microbial load in plate count agar was highest in faeces (1.48×109±0.27 CFU) than oropharyngeal swab (1.36×109±0.38 CFU) and cloacal swab (1.28×109±0.34 CFU). Among 75 samples, 29 (38.66%) Escherichia coli, 21 (28%) Salmonella spp., 20 (26.67%) Staphylococcus spp. and 5(6.6%) Bacillus spp. were identified. In 25 oropharyngeal swab samples, Staphylococcus spp. was found highest 15 (60%) than other organisms but Escherichia coli were found highest both in cloacal 11(44%) and faecal 12(48%) samples. On antibiogram study Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus spp. and Bacillus spp. were more sensitive to Levofloxacin, Azithromycin, Nalidixic Acid and Amoxicillin respectively. While more resistant to Azithromycin, Penicillin, Chloramphenicol and Erythromycin respectively. The obtained results indicated that ostrich excreta are one of the most important sources of Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus spp., Salmonella spp., Bacillus spp. in ostrich farms. Finally, it may be concluding that the logical use of antibiotics must be adopted in ostrich farms reared in Bangladesh for prevention of the appearance of multidrug resistance bacteria. Moreover, proper measures should be taken to aware off zoonotic diseases in peoples who are involved in ostrich farming.Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. December 2017, 3(4): 437-445
