  • Foodcore Salmonella, Shiga Toxin-Producing E. Coli, and Listeria
    FoodCORE Norovirus, Other, and Unknown (NOU) Metrics Rationale and Intent The FoodCORE performance metrics are a list of measurable activities covering diverse aspects of outbreak response. These activities span from outbreak surveillance and detection through investigation, response, control, and prevention measures. Using the metrics*, each center provides data about the burden, timeliness, and completeness of foodborne disease activities related to the key areas of activity. The rationale and intent of these metrics are for investigation activities for norovirus, other enteric disease pathogens, such as Campylobacter, Cryptosporidium, or Giardia, and outbreaks of unknown etiology. Collectively, these are referred to as the NOU metrics, for norovirus, other etiologies, and unknown etiologies. Other etiologies are enteric illnesses with determined etiology that are not Salmonella, Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli, Listeria, or norovirus. Unknown etiologies are enteric illness with no determined/identified etiology from case, product, or environmental testing to indicate the etiologic agent. This can be because no specimen or sample yielded an isolate or other positive result, and would also include investigations where no specimens or samples were collected.

  • Listeria Monocytogenes Meningitis Complicating Rotavirus Gastroenteritis in an Immunocompetent Child
    CASE REPORT Listeria monocytogenes Meningitis Complicating Rotavirus Gastroenteritis in an Immunocompetent Child Takuma Ohnishi,1,2 Akiko Kawano,2 Mayumi Araki,2 Yuko Hamahata,2 Machiko Usui,2 Motoko Shimoyamada,2 Takuya Tamame, 2 Masayuki Akashi2 and Seiji Sato2 1 Department of Pediatrics, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan 2 Department of Pediatrics, Saitama City Hospital, Saitama, Japan (Received for publication on July 2, 2016) (Revised for publication on October 9, 2016) (Accepted for publication on November 28, 2016) (Published online on April 7, 2017) Listeria monocytogenes only occasionally causes bacterial meningitis in immunocompetent children. We report a case of L. monocytogenes meningitis associated with rotavirus gastroenteritis. The patient was a previously healthy 20-month-old girl who was admitted because of sustained fever and lethargy after suffering from gastroenteritis for 6 days. The patient’s peripheral white blood cell count was 18,600/µL and the C-reactive protein level was 2.44 mg/dL. A stool sample tested positive for rotavirus antigen. A cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) sample showed pleocytosis. Cultures of the CSF and stool samples revealed the presence of L. monocytogenes. The patient was successfully treated with ampicillin and gentamicin. We speculate that translocation of enteric flora across the intestinal epithelium that had been dam- aged by rotavirus gastroenteritis might have caused bacteremia that disseminated into the CSF. Both listeriosis and secondary systemic infection after rotavirus gastroenteritis are rare but not unknown. Initiation of appropriate treatment as soon as possible is important for all types of bacterial meningitis. This rare but serious complication should be taken into consideration even if the patient does not have any medical history of immune-related problems.

    VINELAND’S FOOD SAFETY NEWSLETTER February 2015 Produced by the Vineland Health Department- May be copied! Vacuum packing- what you need to know before you start! Vacuum packaging of foods will extend the shelf life of potentially hazardous foods. However, there are some significant risks associated with this practice that must be controlled or you could kill or paralyze your customers. By removing the oxygen from the package, you leave the food much more likely to grow clostridium botulinum bacteria (cause of botulism) and Listeria monocytogenes. Botulism can cause paralysis to death. Listeria can cause miscarriages and death. Not a good idea! In order to safely vacuum package potentially hazardous foods, you must have a food safety expert create a special plan for you on how you will control these hazards. It is called a HACCP plan. This plan must be submitted to the Health Department for approval prior to starting the process. If you have any questions about this, please feel free to call us! Did you know…?

  • APPLICATION of QUANTITATIVE RISK ANALYSIS METHODS to IMPROVING MICROBIAL FOOD SAFETY in the U.S. and KENYA a Dissertation Presen
    APPLICATION OF QUANTITATIVE RISK ANALYSIS METHODS TO IMPROVING MICROBIAL FOOD SAFETY IN THE U.S. AND KENYA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Matthew Stasiewicz May 2015 © 2015 Matthew Stasiewicz APPLICATION OF QUANTITATIVE RISK ANALYSIS METHODS TO IMPROVING MICROBIAL FOOD SAFETY IN THE U.S. AND KENYA Matthew Stasiewicz, Ph. D. Cornell University 2015 Risk analysis is an approach that guides efforts to reduce foodborne disease risk through the distinct activities of risk assessment, risk management, and risk communication. In three projects, I improve two categories of risk analysis tools for two distinct food safety risks in two distinct geographic regions: risk assessment of the bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes in the United States and risk management of the mycotoxins aflatoxin and fumonisin in Kenya. First, I use quantitative microbial risk assessment to show increasing high temperature, short time (HTST) pasteurization temperatures to respond to a bioterror threat would increase the risk of listeriosis from consuming pasteurized fluid milk. I incorporate experimental findings that increased HTST pasteurization temperatures (from 72°C to 82°C) increase outgrowth of L. monocytogenes following post-pasteurization contamination of fluid milk. Conservative estimates show annual listeriosis deaths would increase from 18 to 670, a 38-fold increase, if all U.S. fluid milk were pasteurized at the higher temperature. Second, I apply whole genome sequence technology to identify which repeatedly observed strains of L. monocytogenes are more likely persistent within individual delicatessens or are repeatedly reintroduced from outside sources.

INGHAM* Department of Food Science, University of Wisconsin–Madison, 1605 Linden Drive, Madison, Wisconsin 53706, USA MS 10-085: Received 27 February 2010/Accepted 9 July 2010 ABSTRACT Adequate lethality in jerky manufacture destroys appropriate levels of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella, Listeria monocytogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus. Our goal was to evaluate the lethality of four home-style dehydrator processes against these pathogens. Whole-muscle beef strips were inoculated with L. monocytogenes (five strains), S. aureus (five strains), or a mixed inoculum of E. coli O157:H7 (five strains) and Salmonella (eight strains). After allowing for attachment, strips were marinated in Colorado-, Original-, or Teriyaki-seasoned marinade for 22 to 24 h and dried in three home-style dehydrators (Garden Master, Excalibur, and Jerky Xpress) at 57.2 to 68.3uC. Samples were taken postmarination; after 4, 6, and 8 h of drying; and after drying, followed by heating for 10 min in a 135uC oven. Surviving inocula were enumerated. With a criterion of $5.0- log CFU/cm2 reduction as the standard for adequate process lethality, none of the samples achieved the target lethality for any pathogen after 4 h of drying, even though all samples appeared ‘‘done’’ (water activity of less than 0.85). A postdehydration oven-heating step increased the proportion of samples meeting the target lethality after 4 h of drying to 71.9, 88.9, 55.6, and 77.8% for L.
