The Lytic Siphophage vB_StyS-LmqsSP1 Reduces the Number of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Isolates on Chicken Skin. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • This study explores the use of bacteriophages, specifically vB_StyS-LmqsSP1, as a natural method to control foodborne pathogens like Salmonella which are common in meats.* -
  • The phage was effective at inhibiting Salmonella growth, showing significant reductions in bacterial counts during laboratory tests and when applied to chicken skin over a week.* -
  • vB_StyS-LmqsSP1 is deemed a promising candidate for biocontrol solutions in food safety due to its targeted approach and absence of harmful genes, presenting an alternative to chemical sanitizers.*

Article Abstract

Phage-based biocontrol of bacteria is considered a natural approach to combat foodborne pathogens. Salmonella spp. are notifiable and highly prevalent pathogens that cause foodborne diseases worldwide. In this study, six bacteriophages were isolated and further characterized that infect food-derived Salmonella isolates from different meat sources. The siphovirus VB_StyS-LmqsSP1, which was isolated from a cow's nasal swab, was further subjected to in-depth characterization. Phage-host interaction investigations in liquid medium showed that vB_StyS-LmqsSP1 can suppress the growth of Salmonella species isolates at 37°C for 10 h and significantly reduce the bacterial titer at 4°C. A reduction of 1.4 to 3 log units was observed in investigations with two food-derived Salmonella isolates and one reference strain under cooling conditions using multiplicities of infection (MOIs) of 10 and 10. Phage application on chicken skin resulted in a reduction of about 2 log units in the tested Salmonella isolates from the first 3 h throughout a 1-week experiment at cooling temperature and with an MOI of 10. The one-step growth curve analysis using vB_StyS-LmqsSP1 demonstrated a 60-min latent period and a burst size of 50 to 61 PFU/infected cell for all tested hosts. Furthermore, the genome of the phage was determined to be free from genes causing undesired effects. Based on the phenotypic and genotypic properties, LmqsSP1 was assigned as a promising candidate for biocontrol of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in food. Salmonella enterica is one of the major global causes of foodborne enteritis in humans. The use of chemical sanitizers for reducing bacterial pathogens in the food chain can result in the spread of bacterial resistance. Targeted and clean-label intervention strategies can reduce Salmonella contamination in food. The significance of our research demonstrates the suitability of a bacteriophage (vB_StyS-LmqsSP1) for biocontrol of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium on poultry due to its lytic efficacy under conditions prevalent in food production environments.
