Attachment Strength

The aim of this study was to determine whether the attachment strength to pork skin, quaternary ammonium salt resistance, and thermal inactivation kinetics (at 65°C) of a range of Escherichia coli isolates could be correlated with their temporal stability (persistence) within a pork slaughter line. The genetic lineage of the E. coli isolates was determined using entero-bacterial repetitive intergenic consensus–PCR. The genotypes were divided into transient and endemic populations based on the number of times they were recovered within and across sampling visits made to a pork slaughterhouse. No significant variation in the D-value at 65°C (0.27 to 0.51 min) was observed among the genotypes tested. However, differences in D-values were found for 100 ppm quaternary ammonium salt (3.0 to 6.0 min). All of the E. coli genotypes attached strongly to pork skin, and a high proportion of cells were irreversibly bound (39 to 42% of the initial inoculum). However, variation among genotypes was found with respect to loose attachment (21 to 33% of inoculated cells). No correlation between persistence of E. coli genotypes within the slaughter line and attachment strength or quaternary ammonium salt resistance was found. Variation in either physiological attribute could not be predicted based on genetic lineage. Additional or alternative factors may contribute to the ability of E. coli populations to become endemic within pork processing facilities. More studies should be conducted to elucidate the underlying factors that promote the formation of endemic populations of E. coli and other enteric bacteria (e.g., Salmonella) within slaughter lines.

Hydrogel Films

Hydrogels, possessing high biocompatibility and adaptability to biological tissue, show great usability in medical applications. In this research, a series of novel cross-linked chitosan quaternary ammonium salt loading with gentamicin sulfate (CTMCSG) hydrogel films with different cross-linking degrees were successfully obtained by the reaction of chitosan quaternary ammonium salt (TMCS) and epichlorohydrin. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal analysis, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to characterize the chemical structure and surface morphology of CTMCSG hydrogel films. The physicochemical property, gentamicin sulphate release behavior, cytotoxicity, and antibacterial activity of the CTMCSG against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were determined. Experimental results demonstrated that CTMCSG hydrogel films exhibited good water stability, thermal stability, drug release capacity, as well as antibacterial property. The inhibition zone of CTMCSG hydrogel films against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus could be up to about 30 mm. Specifically, the increases in maximum decomposition temperature, mechanical property, water content, swelling degree, and a reduction in water vapor permeability of the hydrogel films were observed as the amount of the cross-linking agent increased. The results indicated that the CTMCSG-4 hydrogel film with an interesting physicochemical property, admirable antibacterial activity, and slight cytotoxicity showed the potential value as excellent antibacterial wound dressing.

The Stability

The paper deals with instability of solutions of quaternary ammonium permanganates, QMnO4 (Q = tetraethyl-, tetra-1-propyl-, tetra-1-butyl-, tetra-1-pentyl-, tetra-1-octyl-, and cetyltrimethylammonium), in dichloromethane and presents the rate constants and activation parameters of the reduction of permanganate. Attention was paid to the properties of colloidal Mn(IV) intermediate. The stability of the solutions depends markedly on the quaternary ammonium salt used.
