| The presence of Staphylococcus spp. in milk and milk products is a concern for dairy farmers, industry and government agencies responsible for public health. Because these microorganisms are important pathogens of mastitis, the udder of the infected animal is a major source of contamination of raw milk. S. aureus is the species most frequently associated with mastitis and outbreaks or cases of food poisoning. Other species of Staphylococcus have also been associated, but Status: Completed Start date: Wed Aug 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2007 |
| The presence of enterotoxigenic Staphylococcus and its enterotoxins in milk and dairy products is a concern for industry and government agencies responsible for public health. S. aureus is the species most often associated with outbreaks or cases of staphylococcal food poisoning. As this microorganism is an important pathogen of mastitis in cattle, the udder of the infected animal is one of the main sources of contamination of raw milk. Other species of Staphylococcus hav Status: Completed Start date: Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2008 |
| Mastitis, a disease that affects dairy herds worldwide and causes huge economic losses to the Brazilian dairy sector has the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria as one of the major etiologic agents. S. aureus is an infectious pathogen, which can be isolated from clinical infections, but is most often associated with chronic and subclinical mastitis, with an augmentation of the somatic cell count (SCC) in milk. This pathogen has several virulence factors, which are important in the bac Status: Completed Start date: Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2014 |
| Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus) is often associated with cases of bovine mastitis, a common disease in dairy herds that causes economic losses to the farmer and industry. In addition, S. aureus is often associated with outbreaks of food poisoning, as some strains can produce staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs). SEs are a major cause of gastroenteritis resulting from the consumption of contaminated foods, including milk and dairy products. Although S. aureus is dest ...

| Bovine mastitis is considered the main disease of dairy herds in the world, causing the greatest economic losses to the dairy sector. In Brazil, production losses caused by mastitis are estimated between 12 and 15%, accounting to more than three billion liters of milk per year. In addition, mastitis poses risks to public health, due to the possibility of contamination of milk with antibiotic residues or with microorganisms and their toxins. The high frequency of mastitis pathogens resistant to t Status: Completed Start date: Wed Jul 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2015 |
| Since Brazil has a strong prospect of becoming a major exporter of dairy products, the production chain of milk needs to prepare to overcome obstacles such as non-tariff barriers related to food safety and quality assurance. Thus, this project aimed to gather information and develop methodologies for addressing such a challenge. One of the goals was the physicochemical and microbiological characterization of four dairy products (Minas Standard cheese, curd cheese, condensed milk, and whey powder Status: Completed Start date: Tue Nov 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2011 |
| Artisanal cheeses are traditionally produced from raw milk. In the State of Minas Gerais they are regarded as intangible heritage of humanity by the Institute of National Historical and Artistic Heritage, with the following two regions of the State being awarded a geographic indication label: Canastra and Serro. These indications have been pursued by other regions producing artisanal cheeses. Currently, their sale is permitted by official bodies, but their production safely to the consumer is st Status: Completed Start date: Tue Mar 01 00:00:00 GMT-03:00 2016 |
