Mastitis in cattle is one of the diseases that most generates economic losses to the milk production chain due to reduced production, milk discard, premature slaughter, costs with veterinary treatment and alteration in milk quality. The study of microbial communities is in evidence and, currently, molecular methods have allowed a greater understanding of them. Staphylococcus spp. and Myco…
Cheese is an important food of animal origin and can be vehicle to pathogen transmission. Among of the most prevalent microorganisms in cheese is the S. aureus that has the capacity to produce enterotoxin, to form biofilm, and some strains are resistant to antibiotics and sanitizers. The objectives of the study are to observe the microbial diversity, to perform the bacterial isolation,to …
Despite its low cost and nutritional advantages, peanuts are also of concern in relation to Foodborne Diseases, with reported Salmonella outbreaks. In addition, fungi of the Aspergillus species, responsible for developing mycotoxins called aflatoxins, have also been observed. These mycotoxins, when accumulated in the body, can lead to cancer and other diseases such as liver cirrhosis and …
The consumer demand for a reduction in the use of synthetic additives in food has been providing a greater search and incentive to the food industries so that new alternatives for food preservation are used. Among them, there is the initiative to use essential oils due to their antimicrobial properties, coming from specific compounds in their compositions. However, in view of limitations …
The genus Enterococcus ssp. is composed of numerous species of bacteria isolated from the soil, water, associated with plants, fermented foods, and dairy products, in addition to being found ubiquitously in the human gastrointestinal tract and domestic animals. Because they are considered opportunistic pathogens, many species of the genus attract attention for their risks to human health,…

Mastitis causes economic losses due to reduced milk production, milk discard, premature slaughter, veterinary costs, and antibiotic usage. The genus Staphylococcus is divided in coagulase positive and coagulase negative groups and both are considered etiological agents that cause bovine mastitis. Nowadays, besides Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase-negative Staphylococci has special atten…
