Abstract
A avaliação da contaminação ambiental por Bacillus cereus foi realizada em 90 amostras de ar ambiente e em 96 amostras de superfícies de bancadas e de equipamentos, de dois restaurantes institucionais. O microrganismo foi detectado em 84,4% e 44,8% das amostras de ar ambiente e de superfícies, respectivamente. O potencial enterotoxigênico dos isolados foi investigado através da reação da polimerase em cadeia (PCR) para os genes hblA, hblD e hblC (que codificam a hemolisina BL) e para os genes nheA, nheB e nheC (que codificam a enterotoxina não hemolítica - NHE). De um total de 70 isolados investigados, 14,3% foram positivos para os três genes da HBL e 12,8% foram positivos para os três genes da NHE. A produção de NHE também foi verificada através do Bacillus Diarrhoeal Enterotoxin Visual Immunoassay (kit BDE-VIA; Tecra). Os resultados obtidos com o kit revelaram que 61,4% dos 70 isolados são produtores de NHE.
Ninety air samples and ninety six samples from benches and equipments surfaces were collected in two food services for investigation of Bacillus cereus contamination sources and characterization of strains toxin profiles. B. cereus was detected in 84.4% and 44.8% from air samples and samples from benches and equipments surfaces, respectively. The potential of enterotoxin production was investigated using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods for genes hblA, hblD e hblC (encoding hemolysin BL) and for genes nheA, nheB and nheC (encoding non-hemolytic enterotoxin - NHE). From 70 isolates investigated 14.3% were positive for the three HBL encoding genes and 12.8% were positive for the three NHE encoding genes. The Bacillus Diarrhoeal Enterotoxin Visual Immunoassay (BDE-VIA; Tecra) also was used for NHE detection. The results obtained with BDE-VIA revealed that 61.4% from the 70 strains are NHE producers.
