Cereulide and Emetic Bacillus cereus: Characterizations, Impacts and Public Precautions

Shuo Yang et al.

Summary: Cereulide, produced by Bacillus cereus, is a stable emetic toxin with high toxicity. There is a need for a better understanding of the impact of B. cereus and cereulide to prevent contamination and protect public health. Summarized information highlighting precautions at the public level is lacking, hence the aim of this review is to propose such precautions.

Quantitative risk assessment of Bacillus cereus in wet rice noodles from raw material to marketing phase

Xinru Wang et al.

Summary: We investigated the key risk factors for Bacillus cereus contamination in wet rice noodles production chain. Quantitative detection results showed that the final contamination level of B. cereus ranged from -3.55 to 4.34 log CFU/g in 95% of the samples. In addition to raw material, buffering temperature in the packaging delivery phase, transporting temperature, and time from factory to marketing phase were identified as key control factors.

Prevalence and antimicrobial-resistant characterization of Bacillus cereus isolated from ready-to-eat rice products in Eastern China

Jiancai Chen et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of Bacillus cereus in ready-to-eat rice products in Eastern China. The results showed that a significant proportion of the samples were positive for B. cereus, with contamination levels exceeding the recommended limit in some cases. The study also identified the distribution patterns of virulence genes and antibiotic resistance among the B. cereus isolates.

Prevalence, toxigenic profiles, multidrug resistance, and biofilm formation of Bacillus cereus isolated from ready-to eat cooked rice in Penang, Malaysia

Yugenraj Navaneethan et al.

Summary: The study revealed the presence of Bacillus cereus in 100 ready-to-eat cooked rice samples from food outlets in Penang Island, with strains carrying multiple toxin genes and showing antibiotic resistance, including multidrug-resistant strains. These strains were also capable of forming biofilms in food, which could contribute to recurrent contamination.

The Food Poisoning Toxins of Bacillus cereus

Richard Dietrich et al.

Summary: Bacillus cereus is a soil bacterium responsible for two types of food-related gastrointestinal diseases: food intoxication and food infections. The diseases are caused by various toxins produced by the bacterium, including cereulide and proteinaceous enterotoxins. The review covers the distribution, genetic organization, regulation, and secretion mechanisms of these toxins, with a focus on Hbl and Nhe enterotoxin complexes.

Bacillus cereus food intoxication and toxicoinfection

Jelena Jovanovic et al.

Summary: Bacillus cereus is a common pathogen that produces various harmful toxins causing foodborne diseases, posing a significant threat to health. Infection by this bacterium can lead to vomiting or diarrheal syndromes with varying harmful effects. Extensive research across food safety and clinical domains sheds light on the importance of understanding the role of B. cereus in depth to prevent food poisoning effectively.

Amol Annasaheb Patil et al.

Summary: In July 2015, a foodborne illness outbreak occurred in Sithalikuppam and Verupachi villages, Cuddalore district, Tamil Nadu, with most cases linked to consumption of lemon rice at dinner, resulting in diarrhea and vomiting. The median incubation period of the cases was 14 hours, and it was suspected that the lemon rice was contaminated with enterotoxins like Bacillus cereus.
