Implication of Corynebacterium species in food’s contamination
Journal Title: Journal of Coastal Life Medicine - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 5
Abstract
Corynebacterium spp. are part of the human microbiota. Recently, species of this genus are increasingly implicated in different types of infections especially in immunocompromized and hospitalized patients. The significance of the presence of the genus Corynebacterium in foods is not clearly established. These bacteria may be involved in spoilage or ripening of cheese and meats. This review focused on different researches concerning the implication of Corynebacterium species in food’s contamination.
