Abstract:This study investigated the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of YN0303, an isolate from a food poisoning case occurred in Yunnan Province in 2003.Methods The strain was identified by 16S rDNA and 16S/23S rDNA ITS analysis, together with morphology, biochemical and gene analysis. Toxic gene profiles, panC analysis, mutilocus sequence typing and high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS) analysis were further applied.Results YN0303 was confirmed to be Bacillus cereus. Although it's an isolate from a typical food poisoning case, it was negative for cereulide-producing related ces gene and no cereulide was detected in HPLC-MS quantitative analysis, while it was positive for entero-toxigenic genes such as hbl, nhe, and cytK2. It's also different from typical emetic B.cereus in biochemical tests. It belonged to cytotoxic IV group, while emetic strains should belong to Ⅲ group. YN0303 forms a new ST in mutilocus sequence typing analysis, which was an independent branch in phylogeny tree.Conclusion More than one B.cereus strain involved in this emetic food poisoning case, and YN0303 was not the main pathogenic strain. But as a cytotoxic strain, it might be involved in co-infection.

Abstract:To investigate the characteristics and rules of food poisoning in China to explore the effective prevention and control measures of food poisoning.Methods The general situation,seasonal and month distribution,pathogenic factors and locations of the food poisoning in China from 2004 to 2013 were analyzed. Results The case number and victim number of food poisoning in China were decreased in 2005, but then increased and reached a peak value in 2006, and then significantly decreased from 2006 to 2013. The third quarter in a year was the peak of food poisoning, and the largest numbers of victims and deaths of food poisoning were September and July, respectively. The most common reason for food poisoning was microbial food poisoning while seldom caused death. The chemical food poisoning was decreased significantly from 2004 to 2013. The poisonous plants and animals and poisonous mushroom poisoning had become the main reasons for food poisoning deaths after 2006. Among the locations of food poisoning, the collective canteens was the most risky, and the chemical food poisoning was the key factors for the food poisoning deaths of students. Homemade food accounted for most of the food poisoning deaths. Conclusion The food safety in China had improved significantly, but the situation of food poisoning was far from optimistic, especially the mortality rate was still high. Through strengthening the targeted prevention and control for different seasons and months, locations, different population and carrying out the publicity and education of food safety knowledge, establishing the effective government supervision mechanism were preferable measures to prevent and reduce food poisoning in the future.
