Lactic Acid Bacteria as Biological Control of Staphylococcus aureus in Coalho Goat Cheese

The aim of this study is to investigate the bacterial population in coalho goat cheese produced in the semi-arid northeast region of Brazil, to analyse the antibiotic resistance profiles of the identified pathogenic bacteria, to detect the staphylococcal enterotoxin genes and to evaluate the additio...

Description
Summary:The aim of this study is to investigate the bacterial population in coalho goat cheese produced in the semi-arid northeast region of Brazil, to analyse the antibiotic resistance profiles of the identified pathogenic bacteria, to detect the staphylococcal enterotoxin genes and to evaluate the addition of autochthonous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with technofunctional properties for the control of growth. In the analysed samples, strains of ( =11), spp. ( =18), spp. ( =6) and ( =9) were classified as multidrug resistant (MDR). The most commonly isolated pathogen from the studied coalho goat cheese was . Its isolates were positive for the genes encoding enterotoxins A ( ), B ( ), C ( ) and D ( ). The autochthonous LAB with the potential to inhibit were identified as These strains were selected for tests of protective, safety, technological and functional properties. In the coalho goat cheese food matrix, these selected autochthonous LAB were able to reduce the enterotoxigenic MDR load by approx. 3 log units.
