Resumo: Fresh produce can be a possible source of microbiological contamination. In the past 20 years, several salmonellosis outbreaks due to the consumption of tomato have been reported, mainly in the USA. Organic raw vegetables pose a risk for the transmission of foodborne pathogens since they are often cultivated using manure as a fertilizer. The aim of this study was to conduct a survey of the presence of Salmonella spp, total coliforms and Escherichia coli on the surface of tomatoes from two different production systems. A total of 262 samples of organic and conventional tomatoes were collected from supermarkets and open street markets in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and analyzed for these microorganisms. To increase the probability of detecting Salmonella spp, we used two different detection methods: the traditional method from the Bacteriological Analytical Manual-Food and Drug Administration (BAM-FDA) and the Mini-Vidas-SLM-bioMérieux. Total coliforms were detected in the range of 1 to 4 log10 CFU/g, E. coli was found in only three samples (2 conventional and 1 organic) and Salmonella was absent in all of the analyzed samples. The results demonstrate that all of the samples were in agreement with the Brazilian legislation for Salmonella spp.

Nos últimos 20 anos diversos surtos de salmonelose devido ao consumo de tomate têm sido relatados principalmente nos EUA. Vegetais orgânicos frescos oferecem risco na transmissão de patógenos de origem alimentar devido a serem frequentemente cultivados utilizando esterco como fertilizante. O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma pesquisa para verificar a presença de Salmonella spp, coliformes totais e Escherichia coli na superfície de tomates provenientes de dois sistemas diferentes de produção. Um total de 262 amostras provenientes da produção orgânica e convencional de tomates foram obtidos de supermercados e feiras na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, Brasil e analisados para estes microrganismos. Para aumentar a probabilidade de detecção de Salmonella spp., dois diferentes métodos de análise foram utilizados, um tradicional do Manual de Análises Bacteriológicas da Administração de Alimentos e Drogas dos Estados Unidos da América e o Mini Vidas-SLM-bioMérieux. Coliformes totais foram detectados na faixa de 1 a 4 log10 UFC/g, E. coli foi encontrada em somente três amostras (duas convencionais e uma orgânica) e Salmonella estava ausente em todas as amostras analisadas. Os resultados mostraram que todas as amostras estavam de acordo com a legislação brasileira para Salmonella spp.Instituto Nacional de Controle de Qualidade em Saúde2016-11-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion"Peer-reviewed article""Artículo revisado por pares""Artigo avaliado pelos pares"application/pdfhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/75510.22239/2317-269X.00755Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology ; Vol. 4 No. 4 (2016): November - Diversidades Culturais e Riscos Sanitários; 111-115Vigilancia en Salud en Debate: Sociedad, Ciencia y Tecnología; Vol. 4 Núm. 4 (2016): Noviembre - Diversidades Culturais e Riscos Sanitários; 111-115Vigil Sanit Debate, Rio de Janeiro; v. 4 n. 4 (2016): Novembro - Diversidades Culturais e Riscos Sanitários; 111-1152317-269Xreponame:Vigilância Sanitária em Debateinstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/article/view/755/347Copyright (c) 2016 Vigilância Sanitária em Debate: Sociedade, Ciência & Tecnologia (Health Surveillance under Debate: Society, Science & Technology) – Visa em Debatehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPenteado, Ana LuciaCastro, Maria Fernanda Demonte Penteado Moretzsohn dePazianotto, Ricardo Antônio Almeida2023-06-27T15:18:27Zoai:ojs.visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br:article/755Revistahttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebatePUBhttps://visaemdebate.incqs.fiocruz.br/index.php/visaemdebate/oaiincqs.visaemdebate@fiocruz.br || gisele.neves@fiocruz.br2317-269X2317-269Xopendoar:2023-06-27T15:18:27Vigilância Sanitária em Debate - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)false
