Foodborne pathogenic bacteria are causing diseases with a significant effect on human health and the economy. The four most common bacterial foodborne pathogens were isolated from different fermented meat products and characterized molecularly in the current study. A total of 20 random samples of fermented meat products, including Hotdog, pepperoni, salami, sausage, and luncheon (4 from each), were collected from different markets to be examined bacteriologically for detection of foodborne pathogenic bacteria. The samples were tested by culture for the presence of bacteria. PCR was used as a diagnostic tool for the proper identification of foodborne pathogenic bacteria. So, the pure isolates were identified and confirmed by PCR- based method using specific primers for each genus. The isolated pathogenic bacteria were identified as Escherichia coli 0157:H7, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella sp. and Staphylococcus aureus. Out of 20 samples, only one sample contains E. coli 0157:H7. Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp. were isolated from two samples. At the same time, S. aureus was found in 6 samples, one of which was mecA positive. The results revealed the presence of foodborne pathogenic bacteria in fermented meat samples. So, to decrease the human hazard risk and a major public health threat associated with foodborne pathogenic bacteria and their toxins, a greater emphasis should be applied in control and prevention of contamination during processing and manipulation.

This study determined the longevity of caged workers fed with different diets (carbohydrate only, bee bread, unfermented pollen substitute diet, and fermented pollen substitute diet). Survival rates were higher for bees fed the fermented versus the non-fermented diet, though the difference was not significant. The honey bees consumed significantly more fermented than an unfermented diet. Hemolymph proteins were significantly higher in bees that had been fed a fermented versus an unfermented diet. Though still significantly lower than in bees fed on beebread, where vitellogenin (an essential storage protein for honey bees) levels were increased significantly in bees fed the fermented versus the non-fermented diet and were similar to and not significantly different when compared to beebread-fed bees. We conclude that fermented by beebread-derived microorganisms can improve the nutritional value, acceptance, and utility of an artificial protein diet and lifespan of the honey bee's workers.

Algal samples were collected from slow-running water from the paddy field of Pokhara, Kaski District, Nepal, on January 3, 2021, and stored in air-tight plastic bottles. The samples were brought to the Cryptogams section (Algae) of National Herbarium and Plant Laboratories, Godawari, Lalitpur. Microphotography was done by using a HumaScope LED microscope with attached 0.5X adapter. The Herbarium specimens, as well as the permanent slide of the samples, were also prepared. Morphological characters viz., the colony with the number of cells in the group, position of pyrenoids, and shape of chloroplast were used for the identification. The result, which includes morpho-taxonomic depiction, showed that the above-expressed taxon was recorded for the first time from Nepal. Dimensions and photographs are also provided. There is hardly any substantial research work on taxonomic studies of family Palmellopsidaceae in Nepal. So to fill this gap, the present work was designed which help to the diversity increment of the freshwater green alga of Nepal. This article describes the morphological characteristics of the freshwater green macro-algae Pseudosphaerocystis lacustris belonging to the family Palmellopsidaceae of the class Chlorophyceae.
