Toxigenic Genes, Pathogenic Potential and Antimicrobial Resistance of <i>Bacillus cereus</i> Group Isolated from Ice Cream and Characterized by Whole Genome Sequencing

Toxigenic Genes, Pathogenic Potential and Antimicrobial Resistance of <i>Bacillus cereus</i> Group Isolated from Ice Cream and Characterized by Whole Genome Sequencing

<i>Bacillus cereus</i> is isolated from a variety of foods where it may cause food spoilage and/or food poisoning due to its toxigenic and pathogenic nature. In this study, we identified members of <i>B. cereus</i> groups in 65% of the ice cream samples analyzed, which were c...
