If poisoning-Bacillus Cereus


Bacillus cereus is the aerobic spore-forming bacterium, found worldwide in soil and the environment. It is generally found in low levels of raw materials, dried and processed food.

Typically, this food is not responsible or liable for any illness, diarrheal type is associated with the meat, milk and vegetables. Disease onset is 8-16 hours and it will take 12-14 hours.

This type of processing plants, vomiting is rice and other cereals, starchy foods. Insolvency is relatively fast (6 hours 30 minutes) and usually takes a day or so. This type is often associated with outbreaks due to the possession of the cooked rice at room temperature.

This is equivalent to the condition of the food is rarely fatal and cannot be transmitted person to person.

Improper storage of food, feed, is a problem. Bacillus cereus spores can survive Boiling, and where the food, rice, for example, be stored at room temperature, the spores can germinate the toxin-producing bacteria in the community. Then eat the pre-formed toxin that causes the disease infested with rice.

Toxin type of vomiting is also a high temperature resistant, such as the Enterotoxin, which causes the Staphylococcus aureus treatment facilities and cooking destroy the toxin.
