Surveillance of foodborne pathogens in meat and meat products sold in Cangzhou City from 2021 to 2022
Objective To analyze the contamination situation of six common foodborne pathogens in meat and meat products sold in Cangzhou City,to understand the pollution level,promptly identify potential outbreaks of foodborne diseases,and provide scientific guidance for regulatory authorities to take control measures.Methods From 2021 to 2022,296 samples of commercially available meat and meat products were randomly collected in Cangzhou City.According to the national standards,6 common foodborne pathogens were enriched,isolated and identified.Results Among the 296 samples,46 were detected positive to pathogenic bacteria,with a total positive rate of 15.54%.The highest positive rate was 24.67%(19/77)for raw poultry meat,followed by 21.78%(22/101)for raw animal meat,and 4.24%(5/118)for cooked meat products.49 strains of foodborne pathogenic bacteria had been isolated,with positive rate of 16.55%(49/296).Salmonella had the highest positive rate of 6.42%(19/296),followed by Listeria monocytogenes[6.08%(18/296)],Escherichia coli causing diarrhea[3.72%(11/296)],Staphylococcus aureus[0.34%(1/296)],while Campylobacter jejuni and Yersinia enterocolitica were not detected positive.Conclusion There was a certain degree of contamination in the meat and meat products sold in Cangzhou City from 2021 to 2022,but it was relatively controllable.The positive rate of pathogenic bacteria in raw livestock and poultry meat was significantly higher,targeted hygiene supervision and management should be strengthened.
