Resumo: The importance of beef (ground) in human food and the concern to offer an innocuous food that is incapable of transmitting diseases led to the development of this study, which aimed to evaluate the microbiological quality, the antimicrobial sensitivity profile and the hygienic-sanitary conditions in samples of beef (ground), sold in the Municipalities of Valença and Vassouras, RJ. Samples were carried out in 20 commercial establishments, which offer ground meat under conditions of consumption and analyzed according to the coliform quantification technique in MPN/g. The antimicrobial profile of Escherichia coli isolates was submitted to susceptibility tests to tetracycline (30μg), ampicillin (10μg), cephalothin (30μg), gentamicin (10μg) and cefotaxime (30μg), using the disk-diffusion method. The assessment of hygienic-sanitary conditions, on the other hand, was based on pre-established observation criteria in a model questionnaire. The total coliform indices were greater than 240 MPN/g in 90% of the analyzed samples and 55% of the samples had indices greater than 240 MPN/g for thermotolerant coliforms, and the Municipality of Valença revealed 40% of contamination within the sample universe. The evaluation of the antimicrobial profile for the antibiotic cefotaxime showed a greater spectrum of action for strains of Escherichia coli isolated from the samples, while the highest index of resistance was observed for the antibiotic cephalothin. The evaluation of hygienic-sanitary conditions was considered unsatisfactory in relation to the handling of meat, which makes this type of food a potential cause of food poisoning.

Las muestras se llevaron a cabo en 20 establecimientos comerciales, que ofrecen carne molida en condiciones de consumo y se analizaron de acuerdo con la técnica de cuantificación de coliformes en NMP/g. El perfil antimicrobiano de los aislados de Escherichia coli se sometió a pruebas de susceptibilidad a tetraciclina (30 μg), ampicilina (10 μg), cefalotina (30 μg), gentamicina (10 μg) y cefotaxima (30 μg), utilizando el método de difusión en disco. La evaluación de las condiciones higiénico-sanitarias, por otro lado, se basó en criterios de observación preestablecidos en un cuestionario modelo. Los índices de coliformes totales fueron superiores a 240 NMP/g en el 90% de las muestras analizadas y el 55% de las muestras tenían índices superiores a 240 NMP/g para coliformes termotolerantes, y el Municipio de Valença reveló el 40% de la contaminación dentro del universo de la muestra. . La evaluación del perfil antimicrobiano para el antibiótico Cefotaxima reveló un mayor espectro de acción para las cepas de Echerichia coli aisladas de las muestras, mientras que se observó el mayor índice de resistencia para el antibiótico cefalotina. La evaluación de las condiciones higiénico-sanitarias se consideró insatisfactoria en relación con el manejo de la carne, lo que hace que este tipo de alimentos sea una posible causa de intoxicación alimentaria.A importância da carne bovina (moída) na alimentação humana e a preocupação de oferecer um alimento inócuo e incapaz de transmitir doenças induziram ao desenvolvimento deste trabalho, que teve por objetivo avaliara qualidade microbiológica, o perfil de sensibilidade antimicrobiano e as condições higiênico-sanitárias em amostras de carne bovina (moída), comercializadas nos Municípios de Valença e Vassouras, RJ. Foram realizadas amostragens em 20 estabelecimentos comerciais, que oferecem carne moída em condições de consumo e analisados segundo a técnica de quantificação de coliformes em NMP/g. O perfil antimicrobiano dos isolados de Escherichia coli foi submetido aos testes de suscetibilidade à tetraciclina (30μg), ampicilina (10μg), cefalotina (30μg), gentamicina (10μg) e cefotaxima (30μg), através do método de disco-difusão. Já, a avaliação das condições higiênico-sanitárias, deu-se a partir de critérios de observações pré-estabelecidos em questionário modelo. Os índices de coliformes totais foram superiores a 240 NMP/g em 90% das amostras analisadas e 55% das amostras apresentaram índices superiores a 240 NMP/g para coliformes termotolerantes, sendo que o Município de Valença revelou 40% de contaminação dentro do universo amostral. A avaliação do perfil antimicrobiano para o antibiótico cefotaxima revelou maior espectro de atuação para as estirpes de Escherichia coli isoladas das amostras, enquanto o maior índice de resistência foi observado para o antibiótico cefalotina. A avaliação das condições higiênico-sanitárias foi considerada insatisfatória em relação à manipulação da carne, o que torna esse tipo de alimento um potencial causador de toxinfecções alimentares.Research, Society and Development2020-06-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/473610.33448/rsd-v9i7.4736Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 7; e838974736Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 7; e838974736Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 7; e8389747362525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIenghttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/4736/4263Copyright (c) 2020 Eduardo Assis Lima, Ana Carla Pinheiro Limainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLima, Eduardo de AssisLima, Ana Carla Pinheiro2020-08-20T18:05:03Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/4736Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:28:29.259975Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
