Isolation of Vibrio parahaemolyticus from the processed meat of Chesapeake Bay blue crabs.

A method for the recovery of Vibrio parahaemolyticus from seafoods is described. By this procedure, a total of 56 biochemically positive cultures of V. parahaemolyticus were recovered from market samples of Chesapeake Bay processed blue crab (cooked, picked, packed, and refrigerated meat). All of the isolates were tested serologically, and 22 strains were serotyped according to the schema of Sakazaki as follows: K3, K5, K28, K31, K36, K37, K39, K43, and K44. These results indicate the broad distribution of these specific serotypes in a seafood harvested from the Chesapeake Bay.

Coliform behavior in frozen foods. I. Rapid test for the recovery of Escherichia coli from frozen foods.

An assortment of 496 samples of frozen foods consisting of fish or marine products, variety types, and cream pie desserts were subjected to four parallel examinations for the recovery of Escherichia coli. The test procedures consisted of two low-temperature (35 C) and two high-temperature (44 C) presumptive tests, followed by an E C confirmatory test at 45.5 C. Of all the test methods examined, a single Lauryl Sulfate Tryptose (LST) presumptive test at 44 C gave best E. coli recovery (425). This recovery compared favorably with the lengthier Association of Official Analytical Chemists test with which only 420 E. coli cells were recovered. The LST (44 C) test saves much time, since it renders a follow-up 48-hr confirmatory test unnecessary. Moreover, since 96% of all the E. coli are recovered within 24 hr by LST (44 C), it is essentially a 24-hr test. The results of this study also confirmed earlier findings, in that it is possible to describe a specific coliform bacteriological test method by simple reproducible productivity ratios. E. coli recovery dilution data and coliform group behavior were also examined.
