INTRODUCTION The microbial groups important in foods consist of several species and types of bacteria, yeasts, molds, and viruses. Although some algae and protozoa as well as some worms (such as nematodes) are important in foods, they are not included among the microbial groups in this chapter. Some of the protozoa and worms associated with health hazards, and several algae associated with health hazards and bioprocessing (sources of vitamins, single-cell proteins), are discussed in Chapter 16 and Chapter 27.

Morganella. 5 ¥ 1 mm), motile, mesophiles. Found in the intestinal contents of humans and animals. Can be pathogenic but has not been implicated in foodborne disease. Species: Morganella morganii.

Species: Proteus vulgaris. Salmonella. Medium rods (1 ¥ 4 mm); usually motile; mesophiles. There are over 2000 serovars and all are regarded as human pathogens.

Procaryotic cells can also have flagella, capsules, surface layer proteins, and pili for specific functions. Some also form endospores (one per cell). On the basis of Gram-stain behavior, bacterial cells are grouped as Gram-negative or Gram-positive. 2). The OM is composed of lipopolysaccharides (LPS), lipoprotein (LP), and phospholipids. Phospholipid molecules are arranged in a bilayer, with the hydrophobic part (fatty acids) inside and hydrophilic part (glycerol and phosphate) outside. LPS and LP molecules are embedded in the phospholipid layer.
