P1-01 Prevalence of Spore-forming Bacteria in Food Using a Multiparametric PCR-based Tool FLORENCE POSTOLLEC, Muriel Bernard, Marie Laure Divanac’h and Danièle Sohier ADRIA Developpement, Quimper, France Introduction: Sporeforming bacteria are ubiquitous in the environment and exhibit a wide range of diversity leading to their natural prevalence in foodstuffs. Purpose: The state-of-the-art of sporeformers’ prevalence in ingredients and food was investigated using a multiparametric PCR-based tool that enables simultaneous detection and identification of various genera and species mostly encountered in food, i.e.,Alicyclobacillus , Anoxybacillus flavithermus, Bacillus, Bacillus cereus group, Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus sporothermodurans, Bacillus subtilis, Brevibacillus laterosporus, Clostridium, Geobacillus stearothermophilus, Moorella and Paenibacillus species. Methods: A total of 90 food products, with or without visible trace of spoilage were analyzed, i.e., 30 egg-based products, 30 milk and dairy products and 30 canned food and ingredients. Detection and identification of targeted species were performed using GeneDisc® Plate. In addition, spore enumeration and isolate 16S rDNA sequencing was used to validate PCR-based tool identification and identify other possible contaminants. Results: Good correlations between the microbiology and molecular-based approach underline the great performance of this multi-detection tool. Most samples contained one or several of the targeted genera and species. For all three tested food categories, 30 to 40% of products were contaminated with both Bacillus and Clostridium. The percentage of contaminations associated with Clostridium or Bacillus represented 100% in raw materials, 72% in dehydrated ingredients and 80% in processed foods. In the last two product types, additional thermophilic contaminants were identified Anoxybacillus( flavithermus, Geobacillus spp., Thermoanaerobacterium spp. and Moorella spp.). Significance: The results suggest that selection, and therefore the observed (re)-emergence of unexpected sporeformer contaminants in food might be favored by the use of given food ingredients and food processing technologies. P1-02 Prevalence and Heat Resistance of Thermophilic Spore-forming Bacteria Contaminating Milk Powder FLORENCE POSTOLLEC, Muriel Bernard, Anne Lochardet and Danièle Sohier ADRIA Developpement, Quimper, France Introduction: Spore-forming bacteria are ubiquitous in the environment and exhibit a wide range of diversity leading to their natural prevalence in foodstuffs. More particularly, thermophilic spore-formers such as Anoxybacillus flavithermus is not detected in raw milk but is frequently encountered in spray-dried milk powder. Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of spore-formers in milk and milk powder samples and determine wet heat resistances of spores naturally found to contaminate milk powders. Methods: Several raw, pasteurized and processed milk samples were analyzed together with milk powder samples. Detection and identification of spore-forming bacteria was performed using GeneDisc® Plate multi-parametric tool. In addition, spore enumeration and isolate 16S rDNA sequencing was used to validate PCR-based tool identification and identify other possible contaminants. Mixed, naturally-encountered spores were collected from milk powder by filtration and wet heat resistances were evaluated on mixed spore suspensions. Milk powder major contaminants, i.e., Geobacillus and Anoxybacillus, were used to produce spores, for which heat resistance was determined. Results: Native spores concentrated from raw milk samples show low spore counts with high spore-former diversity while processed and milk powders show lower diversity. Bacillus coagulans, Bacillus licheniformis, and Ureibacillus thermosphaericus were recovered in raw milk and processed milk. Species found in milk powders were mainly composed of thermophilic species such as Geobacillus stearothermophilus, Anoxybacillus flavithermus and Ureibacillus spp. Heat resistance of dominant spore-former contaminants in milk powder enable spore survival to industrial processes. Significance: These results suggest that selection, and therefore the observed (re)-emergence of unexpected spore-former contaminants in food might be favored by the use of given food processing technologies. P1-03 Modeling the Impact of Temperature and Water Activity on the Growth of Aspergillus flavus, Cladosporium cladosporoïdes, Eurotium herbariorum, Penicillium chrysogenum and Wallemia sebi Thibaud De Broucker, Mohammed El Jabri, FLORENCE POSTOLLEC, Danièle Sohier and Dominique Thuault ADRIA Developpement, Quimper, France Introduction: Development of molds such as Aspergillus flavus, Cladosporium cladosporoïdes, Eurotium herbariorum, Penicillium chrysogenum and Wallemia sebi is responsible for various food spoilage. Poster Purpose: The aim of this work is to develop a predictive model to simulate mold growth in bakery foodstuffs taking into account the impact of temperature and water activity (aw) on fungal development. Methods: Potato Dextrose Agar medium with a wide range of aw (from 0.8 to 0.99) was performed after glycerol adjustment. Temperature was studied in the range of 10 to 40°C. Two parameters of fungal development were taken into account, i.e., growth rate, expressed as the increase of colony diameter per day, and the lag time or apparition time of molds. The Rosso model (1993) was used to describe the influence of temperature and aw on growth rate. Cardinal values were determined for water activity (awmin, awopt and awmax) and temperature (Tmin, Topt, Tmax) for each studied mold. Results: Molds tested presented different optimal growth temperatures, i.e., Wallemia sebi had the lowest Topt (21°C) and Aspergillus flavus the highest (31°C). Great differences were also observed for the minimum aw values for growth (awmin): Eurotium herbariorum had the lowest awmin value (0.70) and Wallemia sebi had the highest awmin value (0.74). Great correlations were observed between this study and published cardinal values for temperature. Except for Wallemia and Eurotium, for which it was shown lower awmin value than published data. Using the developed model, optimal growth rates (µopt) of the five species of mold were also evaluated on bakery products during storage at 25°C (with various formulations and various aw). No impact of the formulation on the growth rate was observed. Significance: This study shows that predictive models developed for the simulation of bacterial growth may be used to describe the development of molds on bakery product matrices. 1 P1-04 Tolerance of Bacillus cereus against Low-dose γ-Irradiation and Cold Temperature Storage ADELARD B. MTENGA, Neema Kassim, Wongyeong Lee, Jeon-Eon Song and Duck-Hwa Chung Gyeongsang National University, Jinju, Gyeongsangnam-do, Republic of Korea Introduction: Gamma irradiation has been highly recommended as a sanitary treatment to ensure the safety of food and food products from microbiological contamination. Bacillus cereus has been implicated in foodborne outbreaks. The majority of bacteria barely withstand γ-irradiation up to 5 kGy and cold temperature treatment. Purpose: The objective of this study is to investigate the level of tolerance of Bacillus cereus strains KCCM 40138 to the combined treatment of low-dose γ-irradiation and storage at 0°C for 24 h after irradiation. Methods: B. cereus at a concentration of 1.5 x 107 CFU/ml were exposed to the γ-irradiation dose of 0, 1, 1.5, 3 and 5 kGy and immediately stored at 0°C for 24 h. The optical density and the antimicrobial sensitivity profile were measured to compare the changes in between before and after the radiation treatment. PCR analysis that targets B. cereus gyrB gene

  • Inspection of Dairy Farms
    FD375 2009 Revision PURPOSE AND DESCRIPTION The purpose of this course is to give the participant a basic understanding of the operation, requirements and inspection techniques to be applied on Grade “A” dairy farms. The course principles are based on the current requirements and Administra- tive Procedures of the Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance, the most recent Memoranda of Interpretation, and field expertise of the Training Officers, Food & Drug Administration Regional Milk Specialists and state and local dairy farm inspection personnel. This training manual should not be used in place of the Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance. FOREWORD This course is designed primarily for state and local milk regulatory personnel assigned the responsibility for the inspection of Grade “A” dairy farms. The course is also pertinent to dairy field supervisors, industry consultants, plant quality control supervisors, military food and milk specialists, and others involved in the control of food and milk supplies. The course includes classroom studies and in some cases, field exercises, which are used to apply the learned principles. Classroom discussions are encouraged and problem solving sessions are employed during the course. The participant is given the basics of good farm sanitation practices along with those basic requirements applicable to each sanitation requirement. This edition, of the manual, is based on the most current revision of the Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO), including applicable memorandums. All of the raw (r) items in the PMO are covered along with the applicable Administrative Procedures that explain satisfactory compliance with each item. Perhaps one of the most significant aspects of the course is the open exchange of ideas among the class participants during the week.

  • Milkline Cleaning Dynamics: Design Guidelines and Troubleshooting
    MILKLINE CLEANING DYNAMICS: DESIGN GUIDELINES AND TROUBLESHOOTING Douglas J. Reinemann1 and Albrecht Grasshoff2 1Agricultural Engineering Department, University of Wisconsin-Madison 2Federal Center for Dairy Research, Kiel, Germany Dairy, Food, and Environmental Sanitation. Vol. 13, No. 8, Pages 462- 467 (August 1993). Reprinted from the National Mastitis Council 32 Annual Meeting Proceedings, Kansas City, MO (1993). Introduction Most modern milking systems are cleaned using air injected CIP systems. Cleaning and disinfection is accomplished by a combination of physical, thermal and chemical processes. The circulation of sufficient volume of cleaning solutions at sufficient velocity and temperature is required to adequately clean milk contact surfaces. Failure of CIP systems often results from inadequate velocity or contact time of the cleaning solution. A small amount of residual soil can facilitate bacterial attachment, survival and growth. If not inactivated or removed during cleaning, remaining bacteria may eventually detach and contaminate the milk supply. This may affect the quality and, if pathogens are present, the safety of the milk. Current methods for clean-ability assessment of CIP treated milking systems employ microbiological tests (standard plate count). There are several limitations to the use of these tests. First, they require several days to obtain results, and second, it is difficult to locate the source of the cleaning failure. Cleaning problems are generally detected by elevated bacterial counts in the product after many soiling/cleaning cycles. When this occurs, bacterial contamination is likely to have had effect on a large volume of product. The development of rapid and reliable methods to assess cleaning will improve the design, installation and performance of cleaning systems and thereby improve milk product quality and safety.
