  • Exposure to these harmful bacteria can lead to cases of severe contamination with devastating outcomes for consumers. (incrediblethings.com)
  • In order to reduce the risks posed by harmful bacteria within the food industry, a food manufacturer must adhere to industry regulations ensuring that their facility is managed efficiently. (incrediblethings.com)
Bacterial6
  • Bacterial infections are defined as isolation of the bacteria from a clinical specimen by culture or detection of pathogen antigen, nucleic acid sequences, or, for STEC, † Shiga toxin or Shiga toxin genes, by a culture-independent diagnostic test (CIDT). (cdc.gov)
  • Bacterial vaginosis is a condition of the vaginal microbiota in which an excessive growth of Gardnerella vaginalis and other mostly anaerobic bacteria displace the beneficial Lactobacilli species that maintain healthy vaginal microbial populations. (wikipedia.org)
  • The MIDI Sherlock Microbial Identification System (MIS) was used to confirm the identity of the bacterial isolates based on the fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) profiles of the bacteria. (usda.gov)
  • We offer you a choice of a broad spectrum of testing methods for the detection of Campylobacter, including cultivation on selective media and confirmation of bacterial growth. (intertek.com)
  • The PCR technique, which is extremely sensitive, allows bacteria to be identified on the basis of its genetic material and requires no bacterial cultivation. (alliedacademies.org)
  • Previously, the microbe was thought to be a species of Campylobacter, the world's leading cause of bacterial diarrhoea. (thepigsite.com)
Gastroenteritis1
  • La gastroenteritis por Campylobacter es generalmente autolimitada, dispensando la prescripción de antibióticos, pero cuando la terapia antibiótica es necesaria, la eritromicina y las fluoroquinolonas son los antimicrobianos de elección. (journaltocs.ac.uk)
Food-borne i1
  • The pathogenic bacterium Campylobacter jejeuni is a major cause of food-borne illness and also frequently identified as a risk factor for Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS), the most common cause of acute neuromuscular paralysis in the world. (cdc.gov)
Yersinia1
  • A STUDY published 2015 at the AgriFood Economics Centre has calculated the number of cases and costs of five different bacteria, transmitted through food: Campylobacter, salmonella, EHEC, yersinia and shigellosis. (lu.se)
Reactive Arthritis1
Antibiotics4
  • In 2013, one-quarter of Campylobacter samples from infected people were resistant to quinolone antibiotics such as ciprofloxacin, the agency said. (clinicaladvisor.com)
  • These bacteria cannot be treated with critically important antibiotics. (foodsafetynews.com)
  • There is mounting evidence suggesting the poultry industry's use of antibiotics induces antibiotic resistance among the food-borne bacteria that affect human health. (organicfooddirectory.com.au)
  • The use of broad spectrum antibiotics may change the balance of the normal flora, inhibiting the growth of normal flora and allowing bacteria resistant to the antibiotic to persist and overgrow. (medscape.com)
