Salmonella spp. detection in brown mussels Perna perna from natural sea beds of a densely urbanized bay
This study aimed at isolating Salmonella spp. from mussel Perna perna (L.) samples collected from natural sea beds of Palmas Island, Santos Bay, São Paulo, Brazil. During the period from August 2010 to July 2011, 10 sampling of mussels collections were performed at three distinct points. A total of...

| Sumario: | This study aimed at isolating Salmonella spp. from mussel Perna perna (L.) samples collected from natural sea beds of Palmas Island, Santos Bay, São Paulo, Brazil. During the period from August 2010 to July 2011, 10 sampling of mussels collections were performed at three distinct points. A total of 29 samples were collected, which were analyzed by methodology described in the Compendium of methods for the microbiological examination of foods. Salmonella spp. was isolated from 20.7% of samples. The Salmonella spp. strains revealed four different serotypes among the six isolates. The dominant serotype was S. Livingstone which was detected in three isolates (50%), and the other isolated serotypes were identified as S. Infantis, S. enterica subsp. salamae and S. Albany from one sample (16.6%). Two different types of Salmonella spp. strains were isolated from samples collected at each distinct point. At the point 1 S. Livingstone and S. Albany, point 2 S. Infantis and S. Livingstone, point 3 S. enterica subsp. salamae and S. Livingstone. S. Livingstone was detected in samples from the three points, being two strains in January 2011 and one in June 2011. |
