Raw vegetables including flowers, leaves, stems, and roots are important carriers of food borne pathogens. We evaluated the bacteriological contamination of unwashed coriander leaves, and effectiveness of cleansing with 0.1% potassium permanganate solution as decontamination method.
Significant bacterial contamination including pathogens like Salmonella species and Aeromonas species were isolated from unwashed coriander leaves. Decontamination with 0.1% potassium permanganate was found to be more effective than three steps wash with sterile water.
包括花、叶、茎和根在内的生蔬菜是食源性病原体的重要载体。我们评估了未清洗香菜叶的细菌污染情况，以及用0.1%高锰酸钾溶液清洗作为去污方法的有效性。
从未清洗的香菜叶中分离出包括沙门氏菌属和气单胞菌属等病原体在内的大量细菌污染。发现用0.1%高锰酸钾进行去污比用无菌水进行三步清洗更有效。
