A mouse lethal toxin (MLT) produced by Bacillus cereus isolated in vomiting-type food poisoning was purified by chromatography on DEAE-Sephadex A-25 followed by gel filtration on Sephadex G-75. Purified MLT possessed a molecular weight of 33,000-34,000. It showed mouse lethality and hemolytic (HL) activity on sheep and rabbit erythrocytes; the latter erythrocytes were more weakly hemolyzed than the former ones. However, fluid accumulation in mouse ligated intestinal loops was not induced by purified MLT at the highest concentration used. Both MLT and HL activities were stable at pH 6-9, during storage at -20 degrees C for 8 weeks, and resistant to papain, cholesterol, lecithin, and dithiothreitol treatments. Most activity was lost during storage at 4 degrees C or 25 degrees C for 2 weeks or upon treatment with trypsin, trypanblue, or ethanol. The activities were resistant to heating at 37 degrees C for 5 min, less resistant at 98 degrees C for 5 min, and sensitive at 60 degrees C for 5 min. It can be concluded from the results that MLT is different from the diarrheagenic toxin produced by B. cereus isolated in diarrheal-type food poisoning, but is similar to, if not identical, hemolysin II. 相似文献

Certain properties of 22 Bacillus cereus strains isolated from different foods and food poisoning episodes were investigated in order to evaluate possible différences between strains isolated from diarrhoeal and vomiting type food poisoning outbreaks.None of the strains isolated from vomiting type episodes produced acid from salicin and mannose, whereas 80 and 40 % of the strains from diarrhoeal type outbreaks were positive, respectively. No association between the antibiotic sensitivity pattern or the fatty acid composition and the source of a strain could be found, although some strains differed from the general pattern of B. cereus in some instances. No significant differences in the production of the skin factor between strains isolated from the two types of outbreaks were found either. The findings of this study support the observation that the food environment itself essentially affects the enterotoxin formation of B. cereus. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of the vascular permeability factor produced by Bacillus cereus 总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6

Purification of an extracellular protein exhibiting the vascular permeability activity produced by Bacillus cereus was performed by ammonium sulfate precipitation followed by chromatography on DE-32 cellulose, Sephadex G-100, and Sephadex G-75. The purified protein was found to be electrophoretically and antigenically almost homogeneous although it contained a trace of contaminant. The molecular weight of the protein was calculated to be 45,000 by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. The purified protein showed vascular permeability activity and mouse lethal toxicity, and caused fluid accumulation in ligated mouse intestinal loops, whereas it did not show any hemolytic and lecithinase activities. From these findings, the purified protein is suggested to be an enterotoxin (or a diarrheagenic toxin) responsible for diarrhea caused by B. cereus in a diarrheal-type food poisoning. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine whether avian pathogenic Escherichia coli produced cytotoxic activity. Culture supernatants of 20 E. coli strains isolated from cellulitis lesions in chickens, five E. coli strains from avian septicemia, five from swollen head syndrome, and five from the feces of healthy chickens were incubated with primary chicken embryo fibroblast (CEF) cells, primary chicken kidney (PCK) cells, a quail fibroblast cell line (QT-35), and four mammalian cell lines (human epithelioid cervical carcinoma, African green monkey kidney, Chinese hamster ovary, and human larynx epidermoid carcinoma). Cytotoxicity was observed with supernatants from the 30 avian pathogenic strains on the two primary chicken cells (CEF and PCK). The highest dilution of culture supenatant that induced cytotoxic changes in 50% of the cells was 1/64. Supernatants from the five strains from normal feces were noncytotoxic, and none of the supernatants was cytotoxic for the QT-35 or the four mammalian cell lines. The cytotoxic effect, which was observed as early as 2 hr after exposure of the cells, was maximal at 6 hr and was evident as vacuolation, morphologically indistinguishable from that previously reported for culture supernatants of Helicobacter pylori. Like the activity in H. pylori, the cytotoxicity of the avian pathogenic strains was destroyed by heating at 70 C for 30 min and by exposure to proteolytic enzymes and was retained by filtration with a 100,000 molecular weight cut-off ultrafilter. Supernatants of two vacuolating cytotoxin-positive cultures of H. pylori failed to induce vacuolation of the CEF and PCK cells but caused the characteristic vacuolation in HeLa and Vero cells. The observations suggest that avian pathogenic E. coli produce a cytotoxin that is similar to the cytotoxin of H. pylori but may be specific for avian cells. 相似文献

Investigated strains of Bacillus thuringiensis were all good producers of casein precipitating proteinases (CP-enzymes).CP-enzymes produced by five strains of B. thuringiensis were serologically compared with enzymes produced by strains of B. cereus, B. licheniformis and B. subtilis. The technique used is a special enzymoserological procedure by which the proteolytic activity is neutralized by specific antisera. A close enzymoserological relationship was demonstrated between B. thuringiensis and B. cereus, while no interspecies cross-reactions occurred between enzymes of these species, and those of B. licheniformis and B. subtilis.The possibility of undetected transference of B. thuringiensis from bacteriologically treated plant material to animals is discussed in relation to the high degree of similarity between B. cereus and B. thuringiensis. 相似文献

Bacillus cereus was identified as an infrequent abortigenic agent in cattle. Necrotizing placentitis with no or sporadic lesions in fetal tissues was seen. Bacillus cereus was isolated in pure culture from fetal tissue and/or placenta. The recent identification of a bovine abortion caused by B cereus, prompted a retrospective survey of the pathology files. Eight of 947 bovine abortions were attributed to B cereus. Bacillus cereus is often mistaken as a contaminant in bovine abortion because of the failure to identify lesions in fetal tissues compatible with bacterial invasion. A necrotizing toxin may be responsible for the placentitis, with expulsion of the fetus before bacterial colonization. 相似文献

Salmonella continues to be a significant human health threat, and the objective of this study was to identify microorganisms with the potential to improve porcine food-safety through their antagonism of Salmonella. Anaerobic culture supernatants of 973 bacterial isolates from the gastrointestinal tract and feces of swine were screened for their capacity to inhibit the growth of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. Growth inhibition of 1000-fold or greater was observed from 16 isolates, and 16S rRNA sequencing identified the isolates as members of the genera Mitsuokella, Escherichia/Shigella, Anaerovibrio, Selenomonas, and Streptococcus. Four isolates were identified as Mitsuokella jalaludinii, and the mechanism of Salmonella Typhimurium growth inhibition by M. jalaludinii was further investigated. M. jalaludinii stationary phase culture supernatants were observed to significantly inhibit growth, and featured the production of lactic, succinic, and acetic acids. Aerobic and anaerobic S. Typhimurium growth was restored when the pH of the culture supernatants (pH 4.6) was increased to pH 6.8. However, S. Typhimurium growth in fermentation acid-free media was the same at pH 4.6 and pH 6.8 - indicating a synergistic effect between fermentation acid production and low pH as the cause of S. Typhimurium growth inhibition. Furthermore, exposure of S. Typhimurium to M. jalaludinii culture supernatants inhibited Salmonella invasion of HEp-2 cells by 10-fold. The results identify M. jalaludinii as a possible inhibitor of Salmonella growth and invasion in swine, and thus a potential probiotic capable of improving food safety. 相似文献

Intracellular locations of dermonecrotic toxins in Pasteurella multocida and in Bordetella bronchiseptica 总被引：12，自引：0，他引：12
Location of dermonecrotic toxin (DNT) in the cells of Pasteurella multocida or Bordetella bronchiseptica was investigated. After cell lysis by various procedures, various fractions prepared from bacterial cells grown in liquid culture media were assayed for dermonecrotic activity by skin testing of guinea pigs. During the death phase of the growth tested for the 2 bacterial species, little cell-free DNT was detected in the culture supernatants. Throughout the log and stationary phases of the growth, DNT activity was cell associated, but was not seen in the culture supernatants, which indicated that DNT was not secreted by actively growing P multocida or B bronchiseptica cells. Little DNT was released by subjecting whole cells to osmotic shock, a common procedure that releases proteins from the periplasmic space of many gram-negative bacteria. After sonication and centrifugation of whole cells, a substantial amount of DNT was released; results were similar when spheroplasts were used instead of whole cells. Treatment of whole cells with trypsin did not decrease the DNT activity, but trypsin treatment of sonicated cells resulted in a significant decrease in the DNT activity (P less than 0.01). The results indicated an intracellular location of the DNT of P multocida or B bronchiseptica. The DNT of P multocida or of B bronchiseptica is probably located in the cytoplasmic space. 相似文献

Enterotoxin production by strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from animals and main in Nigeria
Dosu Adekeye 《Veterinary microbiology》1980,5(2):143-150
Enterotoxin production by 194 strains of Straphylococcus aureaus isolated from animals and man was investigated. The organisms were also classified into biotypes, irrespective of sources. Human biotypes isolated from people had the highest proportion of enterotoxigenic strains (39%). The animal biotypes isolated from human beings were not enterotoxinenic, but 8.8% of the human biotypes isolated from animals yielded enterotoxin. About 18% of the animal biotypes isolated from animals were enterotoxigenic, while 25% of the untypable biotypes from all the sources investigated were enterotoxin producers. The predominant enterotoxins were A and B, with A accounting for 55%5% of the entrotoxins produced by human biotypes. Enterotoxins A, B and C were produced by some animal biotypes, and three canine biotypes produced enterotoxin combinations, BE, CE and ABE, respectively. From goat isolates, only four of the caprine biotypes were enterotoxigenic, including the only isolate producing enterotoxins B, C and E. The isolates obtained from horses and chickens were non-enterotoxigenic regardless of the biotypes. It is concluded that strains producing enterotoxins A and B may be responsible for outbreaks of staphylococcal food poisoning in Nigeria. The close association between man and his animals in this environment may account for the high prevalence (47%) of human biotypes in animals. 相似文献

Staphylococcus hyicus virulence in relation to exudative epidermitis in pigs. 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3 
下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 Staphylococcus hyicus strains with different phage types, plasmid profiles, and antibiotic resistance patterns were isolated from piglets with exudative epidermitis. The strains could be divided into virulent strains, producing exudative epidermitis, and avirulent strains, producing no dermal changes when injected in experimental piglets. The results showed that both virulent and avirulent strains were present simultaneously on diseased piglets. This constitutes a diagnostic problem. Concentrated culture supernatants from nine virulent strains injected in the skin of healthy piglets produced a crusting reaction in all piglets. Acanthosis was observed in the histopathological examination of the crustaceous skin. Concentrated culture supernatants from nine avirulent strains produced no macroscopic or microscopic skin changes. Protein profiles from all virulent strains and seven out of nine avirulent strains showed a high degree of protein band homology. An approximately 30 kDa protein present in all concentrated culture supernatants capable of producing skin changes, could not be detected in samples that did not produce skin changes. No other protein showed a similar association. It is concluded that crusting reaction of piglet skin is a suitable indicator of virulence in S. hyicus in relation to exudative epidermitis, and that virulent strains produce a 30 kDa protein, absent in concentrated culture supernatants from avirulent strains. This 30 kDa protein might be an exfoliative toxin. 相似文献

A bacteriological survey of five brands of commercial dog food sausages showed that two of them were heavily contaminated with B. cereus. One of the two brands had a suspected association with food-poisoning incidents in dogs. In addition to B. cereus the other sausage brand was found to contain a high number of sulphite reducing anaerobes. B. cereus was detected in almost every raw material of the two brands of sausages. The pasteurization during manufacturing did not kill all the sporeforming organisms. The water activity of the sausages were equal to or more than 0.99 and pH in a range from 6.2 to 7.0. Methods of preventing the growth of microbes in the sausages after manufacturing are discussed. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine whether methods used to control swine dysentery (SD), caused by the intestinal spirochaete Brachyspira (Serpulina) hyodysenteriae, would also be effective in controlling porcine intestinal spirochaetosis (PIS) caused by the related spirochaete Brachyspira (Serpulina) pilosicoli. Weaner pigs in Groups I (n=8) and II (n=6) received a standard weaner pig diet based on wheat and lupins, whilst Group III (n=6) received an experimental diet based on cooked white rice and animal protein. Pigs in Group II were vaccinated intramuscularly twice at a 3-week-interval with a formalinised bacterin made from B. pilosicoli porcine strain 95/1000 resuspended in Freund's incomplete adjuvant. Eleven days later pigs in all groups were infected orally with 10(10) cells of strain 95/1000 on three successive days. One control pig in Group I developed acute diarrhoea, and at post-mortem had a severe erosive colitis with end-on attachment of spirochaetes to the colonic epithelium. All other pigs developed transient mild diarrhoea and had moderate patchy colitis at post-mortem 3 weeks later. B. pilosicoli was isolated from the faeces of all pigs, except for one fed rice, and was isolated from the mesenteric nodes of three pigs from Group I and from one vaccinated pig in Group II. Consumption of the rice-based diet, but not vaccination, delayed and significantly (p<0.001) reduced the onset of faecal excretion of B. pilosicoli after experimental challenge. Vaccination induced a primary and secondary serological response to B. pilosicoli, as measured using sonicated whole cells of strain 95/1000 as an ELISA plate coating antigen. Antibody titres in the vaccinated pigs then declined, despite intestinal colonisation by B. pilosicoli. Both groups of unvaccinated animals also failed to develop a post-infection increase in circulating antibody titres. 相似文献

To elucidate the occurrence of heat-stable toxin-producing strains among mastitic Bacillus isolates, 100 milk samples of mastitic cows from different parts of Finland were screened. Bacillus was identified as the major organism in 23 samples. Toxinogenic Bacillus isolates identified by sperm cell motility inhibition assay were isolated from six samples. Four isolates belonged to the species Bacillus pumilus and two to Bacillus licheniformis. The toxic substances were heat-stable and soluble to methanol thus being of non-protein nature. The methanol extracted substances disrupted the sperm cell plasma membrane permeability barrier at exposure concentrations of 1-15 microg ml(-1) (B. pumilus) or 20-30 microg ml(-1) (B. licheniformis). The toxic properties of the two mastitic B. licheniformis strains were similar to those of B. licheniformis strains known to produce the lipopeptide lichenysin A and the synthetase genes lchAA, lchAB and lchAC for lichenysin were found in the mastitic strains by PCR. Toxin synthetase genes for the syntheses of lichenysin or surfactin were searched but not found in the toxic B. pumilus strains. The ribopatterns of the mastitic B. pumilus and B. licheniformis isolates were similar to those of the toxinogenic strains described earlier from food poisoning incidents and contaminated indoor air. B. licheniformis and B. pumilus survive pasteurization and other heat treatments as spores. Toxin-producing strains of these species in the dairy production chain may thus be of food safety concern. 相似文献

The respiratory burst activity of bovine polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells in response to milk whey- and TSB-grown S. aureus strains isolated from bovine mastitis was studied in whole blood chemiluminescence (CL) and in a CL system with purified bovine neutrophils. In both cases milk whey-grown S. aureus strains elicited significantly less CL than homologous strains grown in TSB. Ingestion of milk whey-grown S. aureus strains by bovine neutrophils was also considerably lower than that of the corresponding homologous organisms grown in TSB. Binding of complement factor C3 to serum-opsonized milk whey-grown S. aureus strains was lower compared with TSB-grown homologous organisms. Moreover, 5 of 6 S. aureus strains grown in milk whey were significantly more resistant to in vivo clearance from the peritoneal cavity of mice compared with homologous bacteria grown in TSB. S. aureus strains grown in TSB exhibited hydrophobic surface properties, whereas homologous strains grown in milk whey were hydrophilic. 相似文献

从传统发酵食品、市售酸奶中分离出78株乳酸杆菌,其中对B.subtilis和E.coli明显有抑菌活性的有58株。挑取抑菌效果较好的9株进一步研究。结果发现,菌株Lac8和Lac9产生的抑菌素pH作用范围比较广,在pH5～6的范围内仍有较强的活性;热稳定性也很好,加热不仅没有减弱其抑菌活性反而可促进其抑菌活性的发挥。虽然抑菌谱实验中两者对真菌都没有抑菌活性,但其对革兰氏阳性和阴性细菌都有强而稳定的抑菌活性,有进一步研究和工业应用的优良潜质。 相似文献

Detection of cyclopiazonic acid and its producers in food 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
In the course of six months, 60 samples of foods were examined for their contents of cyclopiazonic acid. These samples were subjected to a basal mycological screening aimed at Aspergillus flavus and Penicillium sp. strains. Cyclopiazonic acid contents in samples of Hermelín cheese, peanuts, rice, peeled barley grains, Folican salami, and packaged meat did not exceed the value of 0.5 mg.kg-1. When using a modification of the method of cyclopiazonic acid isolation described by Dorner et al. (1983), 521 mg of this mycotoxin were isolated from a culture of Penicillium griseofulvum CCM 8006 strain grown in liquid medium containing 2% yeast autolysate and 2.5% sucrose. About 47% of the isolated Aspergillus flavus strains were bitoxicogenic (produced both cyclopiazonic acid and aflatoxin). Cyclopiazonic acid was produced by 23.5% of the isolated Penicillium sp. strains. No cyclopiazonic acid was produced in vitro by Penicillium nalgoviensis strains from the Czechoslovak collection on sweet wort agar containing peptone from soybean. Penicillium commune F-426 and Penicillium aurantiogriseum F-708 strains are efficient producers of this acid. 相似文献

The antigens extracted from strains belonging to seven capsular serotypes of Rhodococcus equi, as well as from two wild strains isolated from pneumonic foals, were examined. Whole-cell antigens and soluble products present in broth culture supernatants were separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, electroblotted onto nitrocellulose, and stained with serum from hyperimmunized rabbits or foals. Foal sera used included sera from pneumonic animals with known titer to equi factors; from animals bled monthly on a farm with enzootic pneumonia, and from animals bled monthly on a farm with no history of R. equi pneumonia. The humoral response of foals to somatic antigen preparations was negligible, with few differences noted between sera from healthy, subclinically affected, and sick foals. The humoral response to R. equi broth culture supernatant products appeared more marked and was related to equi factor antibody titer. These findings suggest that the humoral response to R. equi whole-cell antigens is unimportant in protection against disease, which is consistent with the behavior of the organism as a facultative intracellular pathogen. 相似文献

Sera-controlled preadipocyte growth in culture: an ontogeny study with sera from lean and obese pigs
Genetically lean and obese swine were used to investigate the control of preadipocyte growth in culture by porcine serum. Sera were collected from fetuses from obese and lean strains at 70, 90 and 110 d of gestation. Postnatal serum samples were collected from both lines of pigs at 23 to 27 kg. Rat preadipocytes were isolated and grown in culture. Preadipocyte and stromal-vascular cell proliferation was greater in cultures grown in sera obtained postnatally than in cultures grown in sera from fetuses. Sera from lean and obese fetuses were equipotent in promoting cell proliferation. Glycerol-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) activity was higher in cultures fed serum from obese pigs and fetuses than in cultures fed serum from lean pigs and fetuses. Cultures grown in serum from obese fetuses and pigs had soluble protein levels similar to cultures grown with serum from lean pigs and fetuses. These results demonstrate that serum from genetically obese swine, in the pre-obese (fetal) and obese (postnatal) state, caused increased adipogenic activity in adipocytes in culture. 相似文献
