Data on microbiological quality of raw cow milk in East Azerbaijan province, Iran.

ABSTRACT: Microbial contamination of milk can lead to undesirable effects on texture, color, odor, or flavor that result in shorter shelf life. It may also cause serious illnesses in consumers if it contains over than standard limit of these parameters. In this data, we evaluate the total bacterial count (TBC) and somatic cell count (SCC) of raw milk in East Azerbaijan province using BactoScan and Fossomatic equipment, respectively. According to the 30 points selected in the province map, the 10,800 samples were collected during a one-year period. Microbiological results in this data show heavy contaminations of milk samples with TBC indicator (73.6%), while SCC in only 6.4% samples were over the recommended levels by the Iranian standard. Therefore, it is necessary to take attention in order to control of these microbial parameters especially TBC during of milk production to avoid the potential risk of high microbial contamination.

Raw cow milk bacterial population shifts attributable to refrigeration.

Project description:We monitored the dynamic changes in the bacterial population in milk associated with refrigeration. Direct analyses of DNA by using temporal temperature gel electrophoresis (TTGE) and denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) allowed us to make accurate species assignments for bacteria with low-GC-content (low-GC%) (<55%) and medium- or high-GC% (>55%) genomes, respectively. We examined raw milk samples before and after 24-h conservation at 4 degrees C. Bacterial identification was facilitated by comparison with an extensive bacterial reference database ( approximately 150 species) that we established with DNA fragments of pure bacterial strains. Cloning and sequencing of fragments missing from the database were used to achieve complete species identification. Considerable evolution of bacterial populations occurred during conservation at 4 degrees C. TTGE and DGGE are shown to be a powerful tool for identifying the main bacterial species of the raw milk samples and for monitoring changes in bacterial populations during conservation at 4 degrees C. The emergence of psychrotrophic bacteria such as Listeria spp. or Aeromonas hydrophila is demonstrated.

Data on assessment of corrosion-scaling potential and chemical parameters of groundwater quality for industrial and agricultural sectors in the Piranshahr Watershed in the West Azerbaijan province, Iran.

Project description:The present work sets out to 1) evaluate the corrosion-scaling potential of groundwater resources for the industrial sector as well as to 2) examine groundwater chemical parameters for the agricultural sector in the Piranshahr Watershed in the West Azerbaijan province, Iran, using geostatistical analyses and the Wilcox diagram in a GIS environment. A total of 145 spring locations as representatives of groundwater potentiality were recorded by a handheld GPS device and the corrosion and scaling potential states were further scrutinized. The latter was carried out on the basis of examining the chemical parameters at each sample location including alkalinity, pH, temperature, Na+, Ca++, Mg++, TH, HCO3- , Co3-2 , Cl- , SO4-2 , Electrical conductivity, and Total dissolved solids. The corrosion and scaling potential of groundwater was then evaluated by using Langelier saturation index (LSI), Larson-Skold index (LS), Ryznar stability index (RSI), Aggressive index (AI), and Puckorius scaling index (PSI). Also, the groundwater quality state for agriculture was assessed by the Wilcox diagram on the basis of Electrical conductivity and Sodium adsorption ratio parameters. The provided data are beneficial for researchers, policymakers, and authorities for taking pragmatic actions. Also, the compiled data can be used in the context of corrosion/scaling and groundwater quality assessment can be generalized around the world.

A molecular study on Babesia spp. in cattle and ticks in West-Azerbaijan province, Iran.

Project description:A total number of 450 blood samples were collected from 45 different randomly selected cattle herds. Light microscopic examination of blood smears revealed Babesia spp. infection in 4.2%, while 8.9% of blood samples were positive using PCR. Upon multiplex-PCR (mPCR), B. bigemina and B. bovis infections were detected in 37/40 (92.5%) and 3/40 (7.5%) samples, respectively. 530 ticks of 10 Ixodid species were collected from the same cattle. Hyalomma anatolicum was the most prevalent tick species (19.9%). An expected 520 bp fragment of Babesia spp. was generated in 22 (48.8%) of Rhpicephalus annulatus, 18 (40.0%) of R. bursa and 12 (30.0%) R. sanguineus sensu lato. The mPCR findings revealed that all infected ticks including R. annulatus, R. bursa and R. sanguineus were totally infected with B. bigemina. The DNA amplification of B. bovis and B. bigemina in egg samples showed that only B. bigemina was detected in two specimens of R. annulatus. It could be concluded that B. bigemina was the dominant causative agent in this region but the evidence of B. bovis infection of cattle in a few cases was noted, as well. The results suggested that B. bigemina and B. bovis could be detected in the DNA extracted from R. annulatus, R. bursa and R. sanguineus sensu lato confirming previous reports. Since B. bigemina is transmitted transovarially by R. annulatus, it might act as an important vector for B. bigemina.

Raw Cow Milk Bacterial Consortium as Bioindicator of Circulating Anti-Microbial Resistance (AMR).

Project description:The environment, including animals and animal products, is colonized by bacterial species that are typical and specific of every different ecological niche. Natural and human-related ecological pressure promotes the selection and expression of genes related to antimicrobial resistance (AMR). These genes might be present in a bacterial consortium but might not necessarily be expressed. Their expression could be induced by the presence of antimicrobial compounds that could originate from a given ecological niche or from human activity. In this work, we applied (meta)proteomics analysis of bacterial compartment of raw milk in order to obtain a method that provides a measurement of circulating AMR involved proteins and gathers information about the whole bacterial composition. Results from milk analysis revealed the presence of 29 proteins/proteoforms linked to AMR. The detection of mainly ?-lactamases suggests the possibility of using the milk microbiome as a bioindicator for the investigation of AMR. Moreover, it was possible to achieve a culture-free qualitative and functional analysis of raw milk bacterial consortia.
