Genomic and phenotypic diversities among Bacillus cereus isolates from cosmetics.

ABSTRACT:

Background

As Bacillus cereus species can negatively affect the safety and quality of both food and non-food products, it would be useful to describe among the selected strains traits supporting survival in specific matrices. We recently characterized the genome of 3 A ES, a B. cereus isolated from eye shadow, revealing multiple genes predicted to support the adaptation of this strain to harsh environmental conditions. Here, we compared the genotypic and phenotypic relative sensitivity/ resistance of B. cereus 3 A ES with two additional B. cereus cosmetic isolates: an eye shadow isolate, 7 C ES, a baby wipe isolate, 1 L BW, as well as clinical strain American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) 49,063, an emetic strain from unknown origin F60006, the ATCC 14,579 reference type strain, a
