Real-time monitoring of luciferase-tagged Cronobacter sakazakii in reconstituted infant milk formula
The aim of this study was to examine the potential of using a lux-tagged Cronobacter sakazakii strain to monitor growth of the bacterium in various liquids. C. sakazakii was transformed with plasmid p16S lux, and integration of the plasmid at the desired site on the chromosome was confirmed by PCR. The growth of the lux-tagged strain was similar to that of the non-lux-tagged strain, and the integrated plasmid was stable when cells were cultured in the absence of antibiotic. Growth of the lux-tagged strain was monitored in real time in Luria-Bertani broth, skim milk, and infant milk formula by using both the Luminoskan luminometer and the Xenogen IVIS imager. Bioluminescence could be detected when the lux-tagged strain was cocultured with other bacteria. The effect of monocaprylin and nisin on the growth of C. sakazakii in milk was monitored by measuring bioluminescence. In conclusion, growth of a lux-tagged C. sakazakii can be monitored in real time in both clear and opaque liquids by measuring bioluminescence. lux-tagged C. sakazakii strains could be potentially used in high-throughput assays to monitor the effects of various infant milk formula compositions on growth of the bacterium. 相似文献

The inactivation of Cronobacter sakazakii by heat and ultrasound treatments under pressure at different temperatures [manosonication (MS) and manothermosonication (MTS)] was studied in citrate-phosphate pH 7.0 buffer and rehydrated powdered milk. The inactivation rate was an exponential function of the treatment time for MS/MTS treatments (35−68 °C; 200 kPa of pressure; 117 μm of amplitude of ultrasonic waves) in both media, and for thermal treatments alone when buffer was used as heating media. Survival curves of C. sakazakii during heating in milk had a concave downward profile. Up to 50 °C, the lethality of ultrasound under pressure treatments was independent of the treatment temperature in both media. At temperatures greater than 64 °C in buffer and 68 °C in milk, the inactivating effect of MTS was equivalent to that of the thermal treatments alone at the same temperature. Between 50 and 64 ºC for buffer and 50 and 68 °C for milk, the lethality of MTS was the result of a synergistic effect, where the total lethal effect was higher than the lethal effect of heat added to that of ultrasound under pressure at room temperature. The maximum synergism was found at 60 °C in buffer and at 56 °C in milk. A heat treatment of 12 min (60 °C) or 4 min of an ultrasound under pressure at room temperature treatment (35 °C; 200 kPa; 117 μm) would be necessary to guarantee the death of 99.99% of C. sakazakii cells suspended in milk. The same level of C. sakazakii inactivation can be achieved with 1.8 min of a MTS treatment (60 °C; 200 kPa; 117 μm). Damaged cells were detected after heat treatments and after ultrasound under pressure treatments at lethal but not at non-lethal temperatures. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: This study determined the effect of acid, alkaline, chlorine, and ethanol stresses on the thermal inactivation of Enterobacter sakazakii in infant milk formula. Unstressed or stressed cells were mixed with reconstituted powdered infant milk formula (PIMF) at temperatures between 52 and 58 °C for various time periods or mixed with PIMF prior to reconstitution with hot water between 50 and 100 °C. D - and z -values were determined using liner regression analysis. In general, detergent and sanitizer stresses decreased the thermal resistance of E. sakazakii in infant milk formula. The results of this study may be of use to regulatory agencies, manufacturers, and infant caregivers to design heating processes to eliminate E. sakazakii . 相似文献

Enterobacter sakazakii is an opportunistic foodborne pathogen that has been isolated from powdered infant milk formula. This study determined the effect of desiccation, starvation, heat and cold stresses on the thermal inactivation of E. sakazakii in rehydrated infant milk formula (RIMF). Stressed cells were mixed with RIMF at 52, 54, 56, and 58 degrees C for various time periods. The D- and z-values were determined by using linear regression analysis. D-values for unstressed E. sakazakii at 52, 54, 56, and 58 degrees C were 15.33, 4.53, 2, and 0.53 min, respectively. Desiccation and heat stresses, but not starvation or cold stress, caused significant (P < 0.05) reduction in D-values. The z-values of desiccated, starved, heat stressed, and cold stressed E. sakazakii were not significantly different from unstressed cells (4.22 degrees C). Thermal resistance of E. sakazakii in RIMF is affected by the environmental stresses; that is, desiccation and heat stresses that may surround the bacterium prior to the contamination of infant formula. The results of this study may be of use to regulatory agencies, infant milk producers, and infant caregivers to design heating processes to eliminate E. sakazakii that may be present in infant milk formula. 相似文献

Cronobacter malonaticus is one of the opportunistic food-borne pathogens in powdered infant formula and has unusual abilities to survive under environmental stresses such as osmotic conditions. However, the genes involved in osmotic stress have received little attention in C. malonaticus. Here, genes involved in osmotic stress were determined in C. malonaticus using a transposon mutagenesis approach. According to the growth of mutants (n = 215) under 5.0% NaCl concentration, the survival of 5 mutants under osmotic stress was significantly decreased compared with that of the wild type strain. Five mutating sites, including potassium efflux protein KefA, inner membrane protein YqjF, peptidylprolyl isomerase, Cys-tRNA(Pro)/Cys-tRNA(Cys) deacylase, and oligogalacturonate lyase were successfully identified. In addition, the biofilm formation of 5 mutants was determined using crystal violet staining, scanning electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy, and the biofilms of 5 mutants significantly decreased within 72 h compared with that of wild type strain. This is the first report to determine the genes involved in osmotic tolerance in C. malonaticus. The findings provided valuable information for deep understanding of the mechanism of survival of C. malonaticus under osmotic stress, and a possible relationship between biofilm formation and tolerance to osmotic stress was also demonstrated in C. malonaticus. 相似文献

This research aimed to disclose the antibacterial activity of beetroot extract (Beta vulgaris) against Cronobacter sakazakii and its possible mechanisms. We evaluated its antibacterial activity by measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and time-kill kinetics. We also evaluated the intracellular ATP levels, bacterial apoptosis-like death (ALD), and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels to reveal the possible antibacterial mechanisms. Our results showed that the MIC of beetroot extract against C. sakazakii was 25 mg/mL and C. sakazakii (approximately 8 log cfu/mL) was completely inhibited after treatment with 2 MIC of beetroot extract for 3 h. Beetroot extract reduced intracellular ATP levels and facilitated characteristics of ALD in C. sakazakii, such as membrane depolarization, increased intracellular Ca2+ levels, phosphatidylserine externalization, caspase-like protein activation, and DNA fragmentation. Additionally, and different from most bacterial ALD caused by the accumulation of ROS, beetroot extract reduced the intracellular ROS levels in C. sakazakii. Our experimental data provide a rationale for further research of bacterial ALD and demonstrate that beetroot extract can inhibit C. sakazakii in food processing environments. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Since September 2008, an increased incidence of kidney stones and renal failure in infants, associated with the ingestion of infant formula contaminated with melamine has been reported in China. Furthermore, melamine was not only found in many protein‐based food commodities, but also in the feeds for cattle and poultry. So it is necessary to develop a suitable method to determine melamine. RESULTS: A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for analysis of melamine was developed by use of running electrolyte containing 35 mmol L?1 sodium dihydrogen phosphate at pH 3.5, with UV detection at 210 nm. Regression equation revealed linear relationships (r = 0.9999) between the peak‐area and the content of melamine from 0.8 to 80 µg mL?1. The detection limit was 0.08 µg mL?1. The method was successfully applied to the determination of melamine in milk powder, milk and fish feed, with the recoveries from 94.5% to 103.7%. CONCLUSION: The performance of the CZE method evaluated in terms of precision, limits of detection, accuracy and quantification were comparable and in good agreement with those obtained by the HPLC method, with the advantage of shorter analysis time and lower cost.

A simple and fast method has been developed and validated for the determination of myo -inositol in milk powder samples, using solid–liquid extraction with water (0.01% formic acid, v/v):methanol (1:1, v/v). The determination was carried out by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC−MS/MS) using an electrospray ionisation source (ESI) in positive mode. Chromatographic separation was carried out using as mobile phase water (0.01% formic acid, v/v) and methanol in gradient mode. Data acquisition under MS/MS was achieved by applying selected reaction monitoring, using 181.0→109.0 and 181.0→81.0 for quantification and confirmation purposes, respectively. The technique provides a sensitive and selective determination of myo-inositol in the analysed samples, with a run time of 4 min. The limit of detection and quantification were 0.2 and 0.5 mg kg−1, respectively. The method was applied to six fortified commercial milk powder samples containing myo-inositol amounts ranging from 290 to 2200 mg kg−1. 相似文献

Heat treatment is one of the most widely used processing technologies in the dairy industry. Its primary purpose is to destroy microorganisms, both pathogenic and spoilage, to ensure the product is safe and has a reasonable shelf life. In this study microwave volumetric heating (MVH) was compared with a conventional tubular heat exchanger (THE), in terms of the effects of each at a range of temperatures (75°C, 85°C, 95°C, 105°C, 115°C, and 125°C) on indigenous microflora viability and the germination of inoculated Bacillus licheniformis endospores in reconstituted skim milk. To assess the heat treatment–related effects on microbial viability, classical agar-based tests were applied to obtain the counts of 4 various microbiological groups including total bacterial, thermophilic bacterial, mesophilic aerobic bacterial endospore, and thermophilic aerobic bacterial endospore counts, and additional novel insights into cell permeability and spore germination profiles post-heat treatment were obtained using real-time flow cytometry (FC) methods. No significant differences in the plate counts of the indigenous microorganisms tested, the plate counts of the inoculated B. licheniformis, or the relative percentage of germinating endospores were observed between MVH- and THE-treated samples, at equal temperatures in the range specified above, indicating that both methods inactivated inoculated endospores to a similar degree (up to 70% as measured by FC and 5 log reduction as measured by plate counting for some treatments of inoculated endospores). Furthermore, increased cell permeability of indigenous microflora was observed by FC after MVH compared with THE treatment of uninoculated skim milk, which was reflected in lower total bacterial count at a treatment temperature of 105°C. This work demonstrates the utility of FC as a rapid method for assessing cell viability and spore inactivation for postthermal processing in dairy products and overall provides evidence that MVH is at least as effective at eliminating native microflora and inoculated B. licheniformis endospores as THE. 相似文献

Four probiotic bacteria, Lactobacillus acidophilus 4461, L. acidophilus 4962, Lactobacillus casei 290 and L. casei 2607, were used for fermentation of soymilk (SM) prepared from soy protein isolate (SPI) supplemented with skim milk powder (SMP) (SSM). Soymilk and reconstituted skim milk (RSM) were used as controls. Lactose utilization in SSM by these probiotic organisms ranged from 14.97 to 18.15mg/ml, compared to 14.12-16.06mg/ml for RSM. The pH in SSM dropped to 4.07-4.29 compared to 6.15-6.36 for SM and 4.10-4.96 for RSM. The microbial viable counts were also significantly enhanced by up to 0.98logCFU/ml by the supplementation of SMP to SM. The biotransformation level of isoflavone glycosides (IG) to isoflavone aglycones (IA) in SSM ranged from 81.4% to 85.1%, which was 13.9-19.0% higher than that for SM, after 24h of incubation. Most of IG in SSM was completely converted to IA, except malonyl glycitin and malonyl genistin. At the end of the incubation, IA comprised up to 76.8% of total isoflavones in SSM. 相似文献

Yeasts used in bread making are exposed to air-drying stress during dried yeast production processes. To clarify the genes required for air-drying tolerance, we performed genome-wide screening using the complete deletion strain collection of diploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The screening identified 278 gene deletions responsible for air-drying sensitivity. These genes were classified based on their cellular function and on the localization of their gene products. The results showed that the genes required for air-drying tolerance were frequently involved in mitochondrial functions and in connection with vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, which plays a role in vacuolar acidification. To determine the role of vacuolar acidification in air-drying stress tolerance, we monitored intracellular pH. The results showed that intracellular acidification was induced during air-drying and that this acidification was amplified in a deletion mutant of the VMA2 gene encoding a component of vacuolar H(+)-ATPase, suggesting that vacuolar H(+)-ATPase helps maintain intracellular pH homeostasis, which is affected by air-drying stress. To determine the effects of air-drying stress on mitochondria, we analysed the mitochondrial membrane potential under air-drying stress conditions using MitoTracker. The results showed that mitochondria were extremely sensitive to air-drying stress, suggesting that a mitochondrial function is required for tolerance to air-drying stress. We also analysed the correlation between oxidative-stress sensitivity and air-drying-stress sensitivity. The results suggested that oxidative stress is a critical determinant of sensitivity to air-drying stress, although ROS-scavenging systems are not necessary for air-drying stress tolerance. 相似文献

To explain the limited nutritional value of milk cultured with proteinase-positive (Prt+) strains of Lactococcus lactis for the subsequent growth of dairy lactococci, we investigated further the time courses of modifications in the free amino acid and peptide contents of cultured milk. When growing in milk for up to 24 h, Prt+ strains of Lc. lactis progressively accumulated amino acids and casein-derived peptides. The growth of proteinase-negative (Prt-) wild-type strains and peptide transport mutants of Lc. lactis in cultured milk showed that casein-derived peptides could sustain growth up to 5 x 10(8) cfu/ml, depending on the extent of casein degradation during the preliminary growth of Prt+ strains and the Prt- strains. Of the casein-derived oligopeptides, < 25% were transported into the cell and used for Lc. lactis growth. However, they played a prominent role, contributing 90% to growth. In contrast, di- and tripeptides did not contribute to growth, suggesting that either few were released from caseins or they did not supply essential amino acids. 相似文献
