Food-borne disease is a widespread and escalating public health problem globally. About a quarter of the microorganisms isolated from cockroaches are food-borne pathogens including O157:H7, subsp. serovar Typhi, . Thus, cockroaches could be an important reservoir and mechanical vector of food-borne pathogens. Generally, the role of cockroaches in human infections is poorly understood and has been an issue of debate for several years. This article aims to elucidate the possible role of cockroaches in food-borne infections by reviewing the relevant research publications.
食源性疾病是全球范围内广泛且日益严重的公共卫生问题。从蟑螂身上分离出的微生物中，约四分之一是食源性病原体，包括O157:H7、伤寒亚种血清型伤寒杆菌等。因此，蟑螂可能是食源性病原体的重要储存宿主和机械传播媒介。一般来说，蟑螂在人类感染中的作用尚未得到充分了解，多年来一直是一个有争议的问题。本文旨在通过回顾相关研究出版物来阐明蟑螂在食源性感染中可能扮演的角色。
