The aim of this study was to investigate the total mesophilic microorganisms, Pseudomonas genus, Enterobacteriaceae family, mold and yeast counts and the presence of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp on Tuber aestivum and Tuber melanosporum ascocarps. The results confirmed that the major percentage of the microorganisms, approximately 9.0 log ufc/g, were present in the peridium, the glebas of healthy truffles being practically free of microorganisms. The predominant microbial group was the Pseudomonas averaging 8.3 and 8.4 log cfu/g on T. aestivum and T. melanosporum whole ascocarps, respectively. The Enterobacteriaceae also achieved high populations, especially in T. aestivum truffles, with 6.3 log cfu/g. Molds and yeasts never exceeded 5.0 log cfu/g. The characterization of the isolates revealed that the fluorescens pseudomonads were the most prevalent. Raoultella terrigena and Enterobacter intermedius were the dominant Enterobacteriaceae. The identification of the yeast isolates revealed five species: Debaryomyces hansenii, Issatchenkia scutulata, Rhodotorula aurantiaca, Saccharomyces dairensis and Trichosporon beigelii subspecies A and B. The mold genera detected in both species of truffles were Aspergillus, Cladosporium, Penicillium and Fusarium, Trichoderma being present only in T. aestivum. L. monocytogenes was found in 10% of the samples of T. aestivum analysed but Salmonella spp. was not detected. Knowledge of the microbial population in terms of possible food borne and pathogen microorganisms is very useful for establishing successful disinfection and storage methods to prolong the shelf-life of ascocarps of T. aestivum and T. melanosporum. 相似文献

Ergosterol peroxide, the steroidal derivative with cytotoxic activity, has been isolated for the first time from the mycelium of edible and medicinal mushroom Hericiumerinaceum (lion’s mane mushroom) together with erinacine A. The new densitometric method was applied for the quantitative determination of ergosterol peroxide in n-hexane extracts of H. erinaceum, Laetiporus sulfureus (chicken mushroom), and Morchella esculenta (common morel) mycelia, as well as in Boletus edulis (king bolete), Suillus bovinus (Jersey cow mushroom), and B. badius (bay bolete) fruiting bodies. The ergosterol peroxide content reached 15.98 ± 0.78, 10.07 ± 0.75, 13.37 ± 0.56, 29.32 ± 1.43, 17.27 ± 0.84, and 12.60 ± 0.59 mg per 100 g, respectively. What is significant was that ergosterol peroxide was identified for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, in edible mushrooms mentioned above. 相似文献

The microbiota occurring in all the manufacturing phases of two Italian sourdough sweet-leavened baked goods (a typical Genoese dry biscuit, Lagaccio, and a soft stuffed North Italian typical cake, Panettone) were investigated over a period of three years. The two sourdough mother sponges were characterized by the stable presence of three dominant microbial species in potential competition for carbohydrates: Lactobacillus sanfranciscensis, Candida milleri, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Genotypic and phenotypic characterizations of microbial isolates pointed out that each mother sponge harbored its own strains, well distinguishable by molecular methods of analysis but not differing in their main metabolic properties from those known for the corresponding species. The microbial and biochemical evolution during the whole production protocol of both manufactures demonstrated that the three microbial species grew at almost the same growth rates, without exhausting any of the main carbon substrates (maltose, glucose and fructose). The quite similar growth dynamics under practical conditions and the constant presence of all fermentable carbohydrates were recognized as responsible for the stable non competitive association of maltose-positive and maltose-negative species in both sourdoughs. However, the two sourdoughs were characterized by quite different LAB to yeast ratio, with values significantly higher in Panettone than in Lagaccio. The cause of this difference could mainly be ascribed to the temperature of the mother sponge regeneration phase, that, in the case of Panettone manufacture, occurred under conditions of moderate refrigeration. 相似文献

Non-Saccharomyces yeasts are metabolically active during spontaneous and inoculated must fermentations, and by producing a plethora of by-products, they can contribute to the definition of the wine aroma. Thus, use of Saccharomyces and non-Saccharomyces yeasts as mixed starter cultures for inoculation of wine fermentations is of increasing interest for quality enhancement and improved complexity of wines. We initially characterized 34 non-Saccharomyces yeasts of the genera Candida, Lachancea (Kluyveromyces), Metschnikowia and Torulaspora, and evaluated their enological potential. This confirmed that non-Saccharomyces yeasts from wine-related environments represent a rich sink of unexplored biodiversity for the winemaking industry. From these, we selected four non-Saccharomyces yeasts to combine with starter cultures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in mixed fermentation trials. The kinetics of growth and fermentation, and the analytical profiles of the wines produced indicate that these non-Saccharomyces strains can be used with S. cerevisiae starter cultures to increase polysaccharide, glycerol and volatile compound production, to reduce volatile acidity, and to increase or reduce the total acidity of the final wines, depending on yeast species and inoculum ratio used. The overall effects of the non-Saccharomyces yeasts on fermentation and wine quality were strictly dependent on the Saccharomyces/non-Saccharomyces inoculum ratio that mimicked the differences of fermentation conditions (natural or simultaneous inoculated fermentation). 相似文献

The goal of this study was the characterisation of indigenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and yeasts isolated from nine white pickled (BG) and nine fresh soft (ZG) artisanal cheeses collected in Serbia and Croatia. While LAB were present in all of the cheeses collected, yeasts were found in all BG cheeses but only in three ZG cheese samples. High LAB and yeast species diversity was determined (average H′L = 0.4 and H′Y = 0.8, respectively). The predominant LAB species in white pickled (BG) cheeses were Lactococcus lactis, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Leuconostoc mesenteroides, while in fresh soft (ZG) cheeses the most dominant LAB species were L. lactis, Enterococcus faecalis, and Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides. Among the 20 yeast species found, Debaryomyces hansenii, Candida zeylanoides, and Torulaspora delbrueckii were found to be predominant in BG cheeses, while Yarrowia lipolytica was predominant in ZG cheeses. The characterisation of metabolic and technological potentials revealed that 53.4% of LAB isolates produced antimicrobial compounds, 44.3% of LAB strains showed proteolytic activity, while most of the yeast species possessed either lipolytic or proteolytic activity. In conclusion, the results obtained in this study showed that the composition of LAB and yeast populations in white pickled and fresh soft cheeses is region specific. The knowledge gained in this study could eventually be used to select region specific LAB and yeast strains for the production of white pickled and fresh soft artisanal cheeses with geographically specific origins under controlled conditions. 相似文献

We investigate in this work the chemical composition by GC–EIMS, the antibacterial and the cytotoxic activities of Tunisian Nigella sativa essential oil and its bioactive compound, thymoquinone, were tested against various clinical cariogenic bacteria (n = 30). Eighty-four compounds were identified in the essential oil. The major one was p-cymene (49.48%) whereas thymoquinone represented only 0.79%. The essential oil (2.43 mg/disc) containing only 3.35 μg of thymoquinone showed pronounced dose dependant antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus constellatus and Gemella haemolysans (15.5 ± 0.707 mm). However, pure thymoquinone compound (150 μg/disk) was active against all the studied strains especially S. mutans and S. mitis (24.5 ± 0.71 and 22 ± 1.41 mm inhibition zones, respectively). 相似文献

The detection and quantification of wine yeast can be misleading due to under or overestimation of these microorganisms. Underestimation may be caused by variable growing rates of different microorganisms in culture media or the presence of viable but non-cultivable microorganisms. Overestimation may be caused by the lack of discrimination between live and dead microorganisms if quantitative PCR is used to quantify with DNA as the template. However, culture-independent methods that use dyes have been described to remove the DNA from dead cells and then quantify the live microorganisms. Two dyes have been studied in this paper: ethidium monoazide bromide (EMA) and propidium monoazide bromide (PMA). The technique was applied to grape must fermentation and ageing wines. Both dyes presented similar results on yeast monitoring. Membrane cell recovery was necessary when yeasts were originated from ethanol-containing media. When applied to grape must fermentation, differences of up to 1 log unit were seen between the QPCR estimation with or without the dye during the stationary phase. In ageing wines, good agreement was found between plating techniques and QPCR. Most of the viable cells were also culturable and no differences were observed with the methods, except for Zygosaccharomyces bailii and Dekkera bruxellensis where much higher counts were occasionally detected by QPCR. The presence of excess dead cells did not interfere with the quantification of live cells with either of the dyes. 相似文献

Minimally processed refrigerated ready-to-eat fishes may offer health risk of severe infection to susceptible individuals due to contamination by the psychrotolerant bacterium L. monocytogenes. In this work, inhibition of L. monocytogenes by a plant extract and lactic acid bacteria (LAB) was studied in model fish systems kept at 5 °C for 35 days. For that, fillets of tropical fish “surubim” (Pseudoplatystoma sp.) and hydroalcoholic extract of the plant Lippia sidoides Cham. (“alecrim pimenta”) were used. Fish peptone broth (FPB), “surubim” broth and “surubim” homogenate were inoculated with combinations of L. monocytogenes and bacteriocin-producing Carnobacterium maltaromaticum (C2 and A9b+) and non bacteriocin-producing C. maltaromaticum (A9b-), in the presence or absence of extract of “alecrim pimenta” (EAP). In all model systems, monocultures of L. monocytogenes and carnobacteria reached final populations ≥ 108 CFU/ml after 35 days, except for L. monocytogenes in “surubim” homogenate (104 CFU/ml). In FPB, EAP alone and combined with cultures of LAB inhibited L. monocytogenes but carnobacteria without EAP were only weakly antilisterial. In “surubim” broth, EAP alone did not prevent L. monocytogenes growth but cultures of carnobacteria combined or not with EAP inhibited L. monocytogenes, with more pronounced effect being observed for C. maltaromaticum C2, which produced bacteriocin. In “surubim” homogenate, EAP alone and combined with cultures of C. maltaromaticum A9b− and A9b+ were strongly inhibitory to L. monocytogenes, while C. maltaromaticum C2 with EAP caused transient inhibition of L. monocytogenes. No significant inhibition of L. monocytogenes was observed for carnobacteria in “surubim” homogenate without EAP. In conclusion, it was observed that the use of EAP and cultures of carnobacteria have potential to inhibit L. monocytogenes in fish systems and the applications should be carefully studied, considering the influence of food matrix. 相似文献

Lactobacilli are a major part of the microflora of the gut and of many fermented dairy products, and are found in a variety of environments. Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, and Lactobacillus zeae form a closely related taxonomic group within the facultatively heterofermentative lactobacilli. The classification and nomenclature of these bacteria are controversial. In this study, relationships between these species were investigated using type strains and dairy industry isolates examined with DNA-based techniques and conventional carbohydrate use tests. Carbohydrate use patterns gave poor discrimination of some species, but DNA PCR using specific primers targeted to sequences of the 16S rRNA gene discriminated 4 types consistent with the currently recognized species. Pulsed-field agarose gel electrophoresis of chromosomal NotI restriction fragments identified 18 different band patterns from 21 independent Lactobacillus isolates and confirmed the identity of L. casei strains from 2 culture collections (CSCC 5203 and ASCC 290), both representing the type strain of L. casei. Some isolates were reclassified as L. rhamnosus, suggesting that the prevalence of L. rhamnosus as a natural component of the microflora of dairy foods and dairy environments has previously been underestimated. These methods can provide a practical basis for discrimination of the species and identification of individual industrial strains. 相似文献

Reduction of bacteria on spinach, lettuce, and surfaces in food service areas using neutral electrolyzed oxidizing water 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Food safety issues and increases in food borne illnesses have promulgated the development of new sanitation methods to eliminate pathogenic organisms on foods and surfaces in food service areas. Electrolyzed oxidizing water (EO water) shows promise as an environmentally friendly broad spectrum microbial decontamination agent. EO water is generated by the passage of a dilute salt solution ( approximately 1% NaCl) through an electrochemical cell. This electrolytic process converts chloride ions and water molecules into chlorine oxidants (Cl(2), HOCl/ClO(-)). At a near-neutral pH (pH 6.3-6.5), the predominant chemical species is the highly biocidal hypochlorous acid species (HOCl) with the oxidation reduction potential (ORP) of the solution ranging from 800 to 900mV. The biocidal activity of near-neutral EO water was evaluated at 25 degrees C using pure cultures of Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Enterococcus faecalis. Treatment of these organisms, in pure culture, with EO water at concentrations of 20, 50, 100, and 120ppm total residual chlorine (TRC) and 10min of contact time resulted in 100% inactivation of all five organisms (reduction of 6.1-6.7log(10)CFU/mL). Spray treatment of surfaces in food service areas with EO water containing 278-310ppm TRC (pH 6.38) resulted in a 79-100% reduction of microbial growth. Dip (10min) treatment of spinach at 100 and 120ppm TRC resulted in a 4.0-5.0log(10)CFU/mL reduction of bacterial counts for all organisms tested. Dipping (10min) of lettuce at 100 and 120ppm TRC reduced bacterial counts of E. coli by 0.24-0.25log(10)CFU/mL and reduced all other organisms by 2.43-3.81log(10)CFU/mL. 相似文献

Yoghurt is increasingly being used as a carrier of probiotic bacteria for their potential health benefits. To meet with a recommended level of ≥ 106 viable cells/g of a product, assessment of viability of probiotic bacteria in market preparations is crucial. This requires a working method for selective enumeration of these probiotic bacteria and lactic acid bacteria in yoghurt such as Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Lb. acidophilus, Lb. casei and Bifidobacterium. This chapter presents an overview of media that could be used for differential and selective enumerations of yoghurt bacteria. De Man Rogosa Sharpe agar containing fructose (MRSF), MRS agar pH 5.2 (MRS 5.2), reinforced clostridial prussian blue agar at pH 5.0 (RCPB 5.0) or reinforced clostridial agar at pH 5.3 (RCA 5.3) are suitable for enumeration of Lb. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus when the incubation is carried out at 45 °C for 72 h. S. thermophilus (ST) agar and M17 are recommended for selective enumeration of S. thermophilus. Selective enumeration of Lb. acidophilus in mixed culture could be made in Rogosa agar added with 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-d-glucopyranoside (X-Glu) or MRS containing maltose (MRSM) and incubation in a 20% CO2 atmosphere. Lb. casei could be selectively enumerated on specially formulated Lb. casei (LC) agar from products containing yoghurt starter bacteria (S. thermophilus and Lb. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus), Lb. acidophilus, Bifidobacterium spp. and Lb. casei. Bifidobacterium could be enumerated on MRS agar supplemented with nalidixic acid, paromomycin, neomycin sulphate and lithium chloride (MRS-NPNL) under anaerobic incubation at 37 °C for 72 h. 相似文献

The biological effects on Sitophilus granarius were evaluated for three aromatic herbs essential oils: Foeniculum vulgare, Rosmarius officinalis and Lippia citriodora. Stored grain pests were currently controlled by chemical pesticides. This control method leads to pollution of the environment and intoxication of consumers. Essential oils of aromatic plants are more considered as good control alternative tools. Filter papers treated with 5, 50 and 500 μl of test oil were placed in the bottom cover of 1 l plastic bottle. The insects, 50 adults per bottle, were exposed for 1–5 days. Cumulative mortalities were determined 24 and 120 h after treatment. All treatments were replicated five times. The components of the essential oils were identified through GC and GC–MS. The identity of the constituents was confirmed and their relative proportions determined. The results indicate that these natural products may find potential application as useful, environmentally safe insect control and crop protectant agents. 相似文献

Powder and essential oil obtained from dry ground leaves of Chenopodium ambrosioides were tested under laboratory conditions (25±1°C, 70-75% r.h.) for their ability to protect grains from damage by six insect pests, Callosobruchus chinensis, C. maculatus, Acanthoscelides obtectus, Sitophilus granarius, S. zeamais and Prostephanus truncatus. The insects were reared and tested on whole maize grain for S. zeamais and P. truncatus, whole wheat for S. granarius, green peas for C. chinensis, mung bean for C. maculatus and white bean for A. obtectus. The powder prepared from dry leaves of C. ambrosioides was mixed with grains at different dosages ranging from 0.05-0.80% (wt/wt) for C. chinensis, C. maculatus and A. obtectus and from 0.8-6.4% (wt/wt) for S. granarius, S. zeamais and P. truncatus. The dosage of 0.4% killed more than 60% of all the bruchids 2 days after treatment, while a dosage of 6.4% induced total mortality of S. granarius and S. zeamais within the same exposure time. All levels of the dry ground leaf concentrations inhibited F1 progeny production and adult emergence of the tested insects. The dosage of 0.2 μl/cm2 of the essential oil killed 80-100% of the beetles within 24 h except C. maculatus and S. zeamais, where this dosage induced only 20% and 5% mortality, respectively. These results indicate a scientific rationale for the use of this plant in grain protection by local communities in the western highlands of Cameroon. 相似文献

Yellow field pea (Pisum sativum L.) fractions that were mainly protein (50%), fibre (90%) or starch (85%) were obtained from a commercial pea mill and mixed with wheat kernels or wheat flour. Based on the mortality and the number of offspring produced, protein-rich pea flour was more toxic than fibre, which was more toxic than starch. For the protein-rich pea flour mixed with wheat kernels, the most sensitive insects were Sitophilus oryzae (L.), Sitophilus zeamais Motschulsky and Sitophilus granarius (L.), followed by Cryptolestes ferrugineus (Stephens) which was more sensitive than Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) and Rhyzopertha dominica (F.). For the protein-rich pea flour mixed with wheat flour, Cryptolestes pusillus (Schönherr) was most sensitive, followed by C. turcicus (Grouvelle) and T. confusum (Jacquelin du Val), with T. castaneum being the most resistant. Although protein-rich pea flour did not kill adults to a great extent when mixed with flour, it reduced offspring production significantly. Again C. pusillus was the most sensitive, followed by T. confusum, with T. castaneum offspring being the most resistant. The insecticidal activity of pea fractions decreased after treated wheat kernels were held at 30 °C, 70% r.h. for 8 months. The potential of using pea fractions to control stored-product insects is discussed. 相似文献

GC/MS analysis of essential oils extracted from two Cymbopogon species revealed that limonene (23%) and p-mentha-2,8-dien-1-ol in cis (14.3%) and trans (5.6%) forms were the main compounds in Cymbopogon giganteus oil whereas citronellal (31%) and geraniol (24%) were identified in Cymbopogon nardus oil. The toxicity tests performed by fumigation on eggs and adults of Callosobruchus maculatus and Callosobruchus subinnotatus using both essential oils showed a variation in bruchid susceptibility. Essential oil of C. giganteus was more toxic to adults of both bruchid species while essential oil of C. nardus showed the better ovicidal activity. Comparative susceptibility analysis suggested that eggs and adults of C. subinnotatus were two-fold more tolerant to essential oils than C. maculatus in both stages. Oviposition of treated females was strongly reduced in the presence of essential oils. Callosobruchus subinnotatus was more affected than C. maculatus by the essential oil of C. giganteus (oviposition reduction by at least 91% v.s 81% in C. maculatus at 5 μL/L) but the two species were affected similarly by the essential oil of C. nardus. 相似文献

Streptococcus infantarius subsp. infantarius (Sii) and Streptococcus gallolyticus subsp. macedonicus are members of the Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) associated with human infections. SBSEC-related endocarditis was furthermore associated with rural residency in Southern Europe. SBSEC members are increasingly isolated as predominant species from fermented dairy products in Europe, Asia and Africa. African variants of Sii displayed dairy adaptations to lactose metabolism paralleling those of Streptococcus thermophilus including genome decay. In this study, the aim was to assess the prevalence of Sii and possibly other SBSEC members in dairy products of East and West Africa in order to identify their habitat, estimate their importance in dairy fermentation processes and determine geographic areas affected by this potential health risk. Presumptive SBSEC members were isolated on semi-selective M17 and SM agar media. Subsequent genotypic identification of isolates was based on rep-PCR fingerprinting and SBSEC-specific16S rRNA gene PCR assay. Detailed identification was achieved through application of novel primers enhancing the binding stringency in partial groES/groEL gene amplification and subsequent DNA sequencing. The presence of S. thermophilus-like lacS and lacZ genes in the SBSEC isolates was determined to elucidate the prevalence of this dairy adaptation. Isolates (n = 754) were obtained from 72 raw and 95 fermented milk samples from Côte d'Ivoire and Kenya on semi-selective agar media. Colonies of Sii were not detected from raw milk despite high microbial titers of approximately 106 CFU/mL on M17 agar medium. However, after spontaneous milk fermentation Sii was genotypically identified in 94.1% of Kenyan samples and 60.8% of Kenyan isolates. Sii prevalence in Côte d'Ivoire displayed seasonal variations in samples from 32.3% (June) to 40.0% (Dec/Jan) and isolates from 20.5% (June) to 27.7% (Dec/Jan) present at titers of 106–108 CFU/mL. lacS and lacZ genes were detected in all Kenyan and 25.8% (June) to 65.4% (Dec/Jan) of Ivorian Sii isolates. Regional differences in prevalence of Sii and dairy adaptations were observed, but no clear effect of dairy animal, fermentation procedure and climate was revealed. Conclusively, the high prevalence of Sii in Kenya, Côte d'Ivoire in addition to Somalia, Sudan and Mali strongly indicates a pivotal role of Sii in traditional African dairy fermentations potentially paralleling that of typical western dairy species S. thermophilus. Putative health risks associated with the consumption of high amounts of live Sii and potential different degrees of evolutionary adaptation or ecological colonization require further epidemiologic and genomic investigations, particularly in Africa. 相似文献

Three porcine muscles (Longissimus thoracis, Semitendinosus, Masseter), known to have large differences in biochemical and histological traits, were fully characterized and the link between muscle structure and quality evaluated. The oxidative Masseter had more pigment, higher content of metmyoglobin, haem iron, protein and collagen, and was redder with higher fibre numbers, fibre circularity, pH and water holding capacity than the glycolytic Longissimus. Fibre type distribution showed predominance of type IIB in Longissimus and Semitendinosus white, type I in Semitendinosus red and IIA in Masseter. Type I fibres were larger than type IIB and IIA in Semitendinosus and Masseter, respectively, but not in the Longissimus, indicating that fibre size is muscle dependent. Muscle redness was positively correlated with type I fibre traits, haem iron and metmyoglobin, and negatively associated with type II fibre characteristics, non-haem iron and oxymyoglobin. Expressible juice had positive correlation with fibre size and negative with fibre number and connective tissue. 相似文献

Effect of oenological practices on microbial populations using culture-independent techniques 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Sulphur dioxide (SO(2)) addition and yeast inoculation are well-established practices in winemaking for restricting the growth of indigenous yeasts and bacterial populations. The effect of these oenological practices on wine microbial populations has been evaluated using culture-independent methods. These are quantitative PCR (qPCR) for the enumeration of yeasts, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) and acetic acid bacteria (AAB), and PCR-DGGE to determine the yeast and bacteria species diversity. The PCR-DGGE method detected a low yeast and bacteria species diversity. On the contrary, the specificity of the primers designed for the qPCR allowed that minor microbial groups such as Hanseniaspora were accurately quantified regardless of a large presence of other microbial groups such as Saccharomyces. From an oenological point of view, inoculation increased the proportion of Saccharomyces vs. non-Saccharomyces in a shorter time. Hanseniaspora increased during the first phase and decreased during the latter phases of the process, especially in the sulphited fermentations. Both yeast inoculation and SO(2) kept the LAB populations at very low level, while the AAB populations were hardly affected by these two practices. 相似文献

Large game animals and birds used for the commercial production of meat include deer of various species, wild boar and feral pigs, ostriches, emus and rheas, crocodiles and alligators, bison, and kangaroos. Meat from feral pigs and kangaroos is obtained from wild animals only, but much or most meat from the other game animals or birds is obtained from farmed animals. The microbiological conditions of meats from hunted animals can be compromised by poor placement of shots, the usual evisceration and sometimes further dressing of carcass in the field, and ageing of carcasses at ambient temperatures. However, the general microbiological conditions of carcasses from farmed game animals or birds slaughtered and dressed at suitable abattoirs can be comparable with or better than the microbiological conditions of carcasses from domestic animals or birds. The incidences of enteric pathogens on meat from wild or farmed game animals or birds can be less than those for meat from intensively reared domestic animals, but infection of some game meats with Trichinella or other foodborne parasites may occur. 相似文献
