RÉSUMÉ
We report a metaproteomic analysis of the gut microbiota of eight infants with cystic fibrosis, during the first year of life. This is the first study in this disease that uses metaproteomics to analyze stool samples from patients at such a young age.
RÉSUMÉ
Samples of caprine milk from bulk tanks of 405 farms in central Spain were analyzed for Listeria spp. once per season over a 1-yr period. Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innocua were detected in 2.56 and 1.73% of the 1445 samples, respectively. Listeria ivanovii (0.21% samples) and Listeria seeligeri (0.07% samples) were rarely isolated. Only 6 milk samples were contaminated by more than one Listeria species. Most farms (92.59%) produced milk that was apparently free from L. monocytogenes throughout the sampling period, and 88.40% produced milk that was apparently free from Listeria spp. Milk contamination by Listeria spp. was seasonal; incidence in autumn (9.33%) and winter (5.14%) samples was higher than incidence in spring (0.85%) and summer (0.85%) samples. Occurrence of Listeria spp. was lower in samples from mountain farms (1.25%) than in samples from plateau farms (7.03%).
