Studies have demonstrated benefits of the use of probiotics in the diet of poultry production, especially in the action against pathogenic microorganisms. This work presents a review on the effects ...of the use of probiotics on the pathogenic serotypes of Salmonella enterica of birds and a world context on the methods of control of avian salmonellosis. Most of the assays have observed favorable effects, with reduction of colonization through competitive exclusion, decrease of pH, interference in immunological modulation and translocation of the pathogen. Considering the scenario of antimicrobials disuse, probiotics may emerge as one of the main alternatives for the control of this zoonotic agent in poultry commercial productions. However, there is a need for further technical and scientific elucidations as to the viability and applicability of the use of probiotics on a commercial scale.
Los estudios han demostrado beneficios del uso de probióticos en la dieta de las aves de producción, sobre todo en la acción contra microorganismos patógenos. Este trabajo presenta una revisión sobre los efectos del uso de los probióticos sobre los serotipos patógenos de Salmonella entérica de las aves y un panorama mundial sobre los métodos de control de la salmonelosis aviar. La mayoría de los ensayos han observado efectos favorables, con reducción de colonización por medio de exclusión competitiva, disminución de pH, interferencia en la modulación inmunológica y en la translocación del patógeno. En vista del escenario probable de desuso de los antimicrobianos tradicionales, los probióticos pueden emerger como una de las principales alternativas para el control de este agente zoonótico en las creaciones comerciales. Sin embargo, hay la necesidad de mayores aclaraciones técnicas y científicas en cuanto a la viabilidad y aplicabilidad de la utilización de los probióticos a escala comercial.

O Brasil tem se destacado constantemente na criação de aves, ocupando o terceiro lugar mundial em termos de produção e o primeiro em exportação. O Estado de Alagoas, Nordeste do Brasil, aloja um ...rebanho de 5.301.712, dos quais 1.354.196 são galinhas. A nutrição de aves é um dos aspectos que têm melhorado bastante ao longo dos anos. O percentual de gastos com alimentação na criação de aves representa uma fatia significativa do investimento, de forma que é crescente a utilização de alimentos alternativos que são os subprodutos de matadouros (farinhas de origem animal como as de carne e ossos) como forma de suprir a demanda de minerais e de proteínas, além de reduzir o custo de produção. Contudo, um grande problema enfrentado muitas vezes pelos produtores de aves é a qualidade microbiológica desses produtos, uma vez que os mesmos podem veicular patógenos que causam grandes impactos na criação de aves. Esse trabalho objetivou analisar microbiologicamente as farinhas de carne e ossos (FCO) utilizadas na avicultura industrial no Estado de Alagoas. Foram avaliadas 179 amostras obtidas em fornecedores distintos. Desse total, 49,16% estavam contaminadas por Clostridium perfringens, representando elevado risco quando de sua utilização na alimentação de aves. A quantidade de farinha de carne e ossos contaminadas com esta bactéria é elevada.

This paper presents a compact and cost-effective lens-free complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor based bacterial cell detection platform that can measure colorimetric light ...signals in the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) process. In this work, we first demonstrate the CMOS image sensor based shadow imaging platform as an ELISA detector and provide critical performance data that show this platform to be comparable or even better than that of a commercial ELISA reader. To evaluate the efficacy of the shadow imaging platform-based ELISA detector as a practical approach, the pathogenic bacteria Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) and Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) were utilized within a conventional 96-well plate. To reduce the noise signal from unwanted particles and light scattering, a custom-made aperture cover and image processing procedures were developed. Because this platform employs a multi-million pixel CMOS image sensor enabling effective removal of noise signals that can not be achieved with a single pixel detector, i.e., conventional ELISA reader, it can perform more reproducible ELISA measurement. Combined with the shadow imaging technique, this approach holds great promise in many applications including blood analysis, pathogen detection, and environmental monitoring.
The salmonellosis is considered the zoonoses most diffused in the earth, his amplitude of host animal has permitted a rapid expansion of the different serotypes in humans, increasing in recent years ...the severity of gastrointestinal disorders and the resistance of bacteria to conventional treatments. Knowledge of this resistance has as objectives develop strategies of prevention and control against the microorganism, further of define the antimicrobial of election for treatment. In the present study was isolated and identified Salmonella through a coprology sample in ten primates in captive. The colonies suspicious were subjected a biochemical tests and latex agglutination test for confirm the isolation of strains; to later perform the technique Kirby-Bauer. At finalize the test eight of ten primates sampled were positive for Salmonella spp. In the thirteen antibiograms elaborate was observed 100 % of resistance bacterial to antibiotics: vancomycin, clindamycin, erytrhomycin and penicillin G; a 76,92% resistance to tetracycline, followed by (30,76 %) to streptomycin and chloramphenicol. The resistance was lower (7,69 %) to amikacin and ceftriaxone. This investigation contributes to the knowledge of the sensibility pattern of Salmonella in primates maintained in captive in the step homer for wildlife located in the rural municipality of Florencia (Caquetá-Colombia), and evidence the increasing of resistance in various antimicrobials as chloramphenicol and tetracycline according to studies with other wildlife in this property.
AIM To test whether Nox1 plays a role in typhlitis induced by Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium(S. Tm) in a mouse model.METHODS Eight-week-old male wild-type(WT) and Nox1 knockout(KO) ...C57BL6/J(B6) mice were administered metronidazole water for 4 d to make them susceptible to S. Tm infection by the oral route. The mice were given plain water and administered with 4 different doses of S. Tm by oral gavage. The mice were followed for another 4 d. From the time of the metronidazole application, the mice were observed twice daily and weighed daily. The ileum, cecum and colon were removed for sampling at the fourth day post-inoculation. Portions of all three tissues were fixed for histology and placed in RNAlater for m RNA/c DNA preparation and quantitative real-time PCR. The contents of the cecum were recovered for estimation of S. Tm CFU.RESULTS We found Nox1-knockout(Nox1-KO) mice were not more sensitive to S. Tm colonization and infection than WT B6 mice. This conclusion is based on the following observations:(1) S. Tm-infection induced similar weight loss in Nox1-KO mice compared to WT mice;(2) the same S. Tm CFU was recovered from the cecal content of Nox1-KO and WT mice regardless of the inoculation dose, except the lowest inoculation dose(2 × 106 CFU) for which the Nox1-KO had one-log lower CFU than WT mice;(3) there is no difference in cecal pathology between WT and Nox1-KO groups; and(4) there are no S. Tm infection-induced changes in gene expression levels(IL-1b, TNF-α, and Duox2) between WT and Nox1-KO groups. The Alpi gene expression was more suppressed by S. Tm treatment in WT than the Nox1-KO cecum. CONCLUSION Nox1 does not protect mice from S. Tm colonization. Nox1-KO provides a very minor protective effect against S. Tm infection. Using NOX1-specific inhibitors for colitis therapy should not increase risks in bacterial infection.

La salmonelosis es considerada la zoonosis más difundida en la tierra, su amplitud de huésped animal ha permitido una rápida expansión de sus diferentes serotipos en el hombre, aumentando en los últimos años la severidad en los trastornos gastrointestinales y la resistencia de la bacteria a los tratamientos convencionales. El conocimiento de dicha resistencia tiene como objetivo el desarrollo de estrategias de prevención y control frente al microorganismo, además de definir el antimicrobiano de elección para su tratamiento. En el presente estudio se aisló e identificó Salmonella por medio de un muestreo coprológico en diez primates en cautiverio. Las colonias sospechosas observadas en los medios de cultivo de alta selectividad se sometieron a pruebas bioquímicas específicas y a la prueba de aglutinación látex para confirmar el aislamiento de las cepas. Se realizó la técnica Kirby-Bauer, en la cual el 80 % de los individuos resultaron positivos a Salmonella spp. En los trece antibiogramas elaborados se observó 100 % de resistencia bacteriana a los antimicrobianos: vancomicina, clindamicina, eritromicina y penicilina G; un 76,92 % de resistencia a tetraciclina, seguida de 30,76 % a estreptomicina y cloranfenicol. La resistencia más baja fue de 7,69 % a amicacina y ceftriaxona. Esta investigación contribuye al conocimiento del patrón de sensibilidad de Salmonella spp. en primates mantenidos en cautiverio en el Hogar de Paso de Fauna Silvestre (HPFS) ubicado en la zona rural del municipio de Florencia (Caquetá - Colombia), y evidencia el aumento de resistencia en varios antimicrobianos como el cloranfenicol y la tetraciclina según estudios realizados con otras especies silvestres en este HPFS.
Milk is a food of high nutritional value and fundamental to diet in all age groups. Because of this wealth of
nutrients, is likely to develop a wide variety of microorganisms, including pathogens. ...The milk program is health in
Ceará distributes daily about 54 000 liters of milk for children up to six years and pregnant women in a situation of food
insecurity. This study was aimed to analyze the microbiological quality of the milk distributed by the program, from
contamination by coliform bacteria group at 45 ° C and Salmonella. The results observed in 90 samples revealed the
presence of contamination in 45.8% of same, whereas the coliforms at 45 ° C accounted for 31.7% of the samples and
Salmonella, 14.1%. According to these data, whereas Salmonella and coliforms not resist pasteurization temperatures,
the presence of these product failures in processing indicates the need for implementation of effective measures to
control the production and processing of milk.
O leite é um alimento de elevado valor nutritivo e fundamental para a dieta em todas as faixas etárias. Devido
a essa riqueza de nutrientes, é susceptível ao desenvolvimento de grande variedade de microorganismos, inclusive os
patogênicos. O Programa leite é saúde no Estado do Ceará distribui diariamente cerca de 54 mil Litros de leite para
crianças de até seis anos e gestantes em situação de insegurança alimentar. Este trabalho teve com o objetivo analisar a
qualidade microbiológica do leite distribuído pelo programa, a partir de contaminação por bactérias do grupo
Coliformes a 45°C e Salmonela. Os resultados observados em 90 amostras revelaram a presença de contaminação em
45,8% das mesmas, sendo que os Coliformes a 45°C representaram 31,7% das amostras e Salmonela, 14,1%. De acordo
com esses dados, considerando que os Coliformes e Salmonelas não resistem a temperaturas de pasteurização, a
presença destes no produto indica falhas no processamento com a necessidade de aplicação de medidas efetivas no
controle da produção e processamento do leite.
