Detection and enumeration of Clostridium difficile spores in retail beef and pork.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Aug 2009

Weese J Scott, Avery Brent P, Rousseau J, Reid-Smith Richard J

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have identified Clostridium difficile in food animals and retail meat, and concern has been raised about the potential for food to act as a source of C. difficile infection in humans. Previous studies of retail meat have relied on enrichment culture alone, thereby preventing any assessment of the level of contamination in meat. This study evaluated the prevalence of C. difficile contamination of...
