DOI: 10.1007/s00284-020-02129-6
Abstract: The elimination of spore-forming bacteria is not guaranteed by current pasteurisation processes and is a challenging problem for the dairy industry. Given that Bacillus cereus sensu lato (B. cereus group) is an important foodborne pathogen… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foodcont.2016.12.022
Abstract: The foodborne pathogen Bacillus (B.) cereus is a common contaminant in spices and herbs. To further characterise B. cereus and its closely related group members present in spices and herbs, we analysed presumptive B. cereus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.foodcont.2020.107530
Abstract: For the differentiation of the species Bacillus weihenstephanensis and B. pseudomycoides from other members of the B. cereus group a real-time PCR was suggested in 2011, which applies the primer-probe-combinations BCFomp2/BCRomp2 with MotB-FAM-2 and BpmF/BpmR2… read more here.
