Chicory leaves () are widely consumed due to their health benefits. They are mainly consumed raw or without adequate washing, which has led to an increase in food-borne illness. This study investigated the taxonomic composition and diversity of chicory leaves collected at different sampling times and sites. The potential pathogenic genera (, , , , , and ) were identified on the chicory leaves. We also evaluated the effects of various storage conditions (enterohemorrhagic contamination, washing treatment, and temperature) on the chicory leaves' microbiota. These results provide an understanding of the microbiota in chicory and could be used to prevent food-borne illnesses.
菊苣叶因其对健康有益而被广泛食用。它们主要是生食或未充分清洗就食用,这导致食源性疾病有所增加。本研究调查了在不同采样时间和地点采集的菊苣叶的分类组成和多样性。在菊苣叶上鉴定出了潜在致病属(、、、、、和)。我们还评估了各种储存条件(肠出血性污染、清洗处理和温度)对菊苣叶微生物群的影响。这些结果有助于了解菊苣中的微生物群,并可用于预防食源性疾病。
