Ocurrence of Staphylococcus aureus and multiplex pcr detection of classic enterotoxin genes in cheese and meat products

Ocorrência de Staphylococcus aureus e detecção por PCR multiplex de genes de enterotoxinas clássicas em queijo e derivados cárneos

Authorship SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Multiplex PCR was used to investigate the presence of enterotoxins genes (sea, seb, sec, sed and see) and femA gene (specific for Staphylococcus aureus) in coagulase-positive staphylococci (CPS) isolated from cheese and meat products. From 102 CPS isolates, 91 were positive for femA, 10 for sea, 12 for sed and four for see.
