Abstract
The Bacillus cereus group includes important spore-forming bacteria that
present spoilage capability and may cause foodborne diseases. Bacillus cereus is
responsible for several outbreaks of foodborne diseases due to its emetic toxin and
enterotoxin. Enterotoxins, cytotoxin K (CytK), nonhemolytic enterotoxin (Nhe),
and hemolysin BL (Hbl), have been recorded in several diarrheal cases due to food
poisoning from B. cereus. These microorganisms are traditionally evaluated in food
using culturing methods, which can be laborious and time-consuming, and may
also fail to detect bacteria in a viable but nonculturable state.
