Antimicrobial Resistance, Virulence Genes, and Genetic Diversity of Isolated from Sausages.

is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in humans worldwide, and the infection with multidrug-resistant strains can cause severe diseases. This study was designed to evaluate the antimicrobial resistance, to detect the virulence genes, and to study the genetic diversity of isolated strains using 16S rRNA sequences. For this, 34 strains isolated from sausages were identified using biochemical and serological methods.

Antibiotic Susceptibility profile of isolated from sausages in Meknes, Morocco.

Background And Aims: is one of the most common causes of foodborne disease worldwide, due to the consumption of food contaminated by their toxins. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and the antimicrobial resistance of isolated from sausages in Meknes city of Morocco.

Materials And Methods: A total of 156 samples (Beef sausages, Turkey sausages, and Artisanal sausages "Merguez") were collected from different shopping sites (butchery, supermarket, street vendors, and weekly market "Souk") and used for the isolation of .

Antimicrobial resistance and genetic diversity of Salmonella Infantis isolated from foods and human samples in Morocco.

Objectives: Genotyping of Salmonella strains is an important molecular tool to discriminate isolates and to improve epidemiological studies when an outbreak occurs. Among the DNA-based genotyping methods, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) is currently used to subtype Salmonella isolates. In this study, the feasibility of genotyping Salmonella enterica serotype Infantis strains using XbaI restriction enzyme was evaluated.

Occurrence of in sausages sold in Meknes city, Morocco.

In Morocco, the consumption of meat products has experienced a sharp increase in recent years despite the presence of pathogenic bacteria due to hygiene failure. The present study was designed to determine the prevalence of in sausages sold in Meknes city (Morocco) and to study the different factors affecting it contamination with this bacterium. To this end, 156 samples of sausages were taken in various shopping sites during one year from March 2014 to February 2015.

Prevalence, molecular and antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella isolated from sausages in Meknes, Morocco.

Salmonella is among the most important food borne pathogens worldwide contaminating a wide range of animal products including meat products. The aims of this study go through two steps: The first step is to estimate the proportion of sausages products contaminated with Salmonella in Meknes city (Morocco), which were collected from various shopping sites: butchery, street vendors, supermarket and souk (Weekly market combines the population of the small villages around Meknes city). The second one is to identify serovars, to determine the antimicrobials resistance patterns of isolates and to detect the invA and spvC genes.
