Abstract | ||||
The present study aimed to investigate the prevalence of Cronobacter sakazakii in commercial powdered infant formula milk and powdered infant foods available in an Egyptian food market. Also, the study aimed to determine factors that affect survival and growth of C. sakazakii in powdered infant formula milk in order to control the spread of the organism. Also, aimed to determine susceptibility of C. sakazakii to different antibiotics and detect virulence genes by using PCR. | ||||
