Bacillus cereus group bacteria in catering establishments: The environment as a factor of transmission
Original language description
Microbiological contamination is one of the main parameters that must be assessed to assure the safety of foods produced by a catering system. The occurrence of B. cereus sensu lato (B. cereus s. l.) bacteria in the food processing environment is an important risk factor for B. cereus intoxications and infections. Therefore, the prevalence of B. cereus s. l. in a total of 238 environmental swabs from six catering establishments was investigated to determine the possible contamination routes of heat-treated foods. B. cereus s. l. was detected in 52.1% of the swab samples. The detection rates for the B. cereus s. l. nheABC complex, hblDAC complex, cytK and ces virulence genes among the isolates were 98.4, 34.6, 31.5 and 4.7%, respectively. All the isolates (100%) carried at least one or more enterotoxin genes, confirming the high pathogenic potential of B. cereus s. l. bacteria. Hence, from the viewpoint of prevention of diseases caused by B. cereus, it is necessary to identify sources of contamination in the food processing chain.
