dc.description.abstract | Pseudomonas, an opportunistic pathogen for humans is ubiquitous in nature and also a serious food spoilage organism important in food safety. The presence of this bacterium indicates external contamination which shows improper sanitation in the food chain. Recent findings substantiate that pseudomonas besides causing food spoilage, also helps in spread of some of the zoonotic microaeropillic organisms to flourish in foods of animal origin. In this study, 20 samples of each normal milk, refrigerated milk , chilled meat and 15 mastitis milk samples were examined for presence of pseudomonas. Prevalence of 25% and 35% was reported in refrigerated milk and meat, which indicates post processing contaminant as well as a spoilage organism. Pseudomonas plays a pathogenic role in 15 % of mastitis cases studied. Isolated strains were further studied for their sensitivity to antibiotics which again highlighted problem of resistance. This study revealed the presence of pseudomonas in foods of animal origin with multiple drug resistance which needs immediate attention of food industry. | en_US |
