AB  - A total of 61 honey bees from different regions of the Republic of Serbia were analyzed for Clostridium botulinum (C. botulinum) spores. The microbiological methods and molecular methods (multiplex PCR/mPCR and PCR method) were utilized to examine multiple subunits of each honey bees samples. The C. botulinum spores in PCR-positive samples were estimated by the most probable number method (MPN). The presence of C. botulinum spores, by applying mPCR and PCR methods, was detected in 1 of the 61 honey bees (1.64%). Using MPN method, the number of spores in positive sample was 110/kg. Detection of C. botulinum spores directly from untreated honey bees, without prior enrichment, is impossible by applying PCR. Using conventional microbiological methods, detection of C. botulinum spores in dead honey bees is not possible without preenrichment. Therefore, conventional, microbiological methods are not suitable for the detection of C. botulinum spores in honey bees. In order to detect C. botulinum spores in honey bees using PCR methods, due to the small and/or unequal distribution of spores in the samples, it is desirable to use multiple subunits/replicates for each sample examined.

AB  - The nitrite content (expressed as NaNO2) was measured in 236 samples of different types of domestic and foreign cooked sausages from the Serbian market, according to standard ISO procedure. The highest content of nitrite (expressed as NaNO2) was found in fine comminuted cooked sausages from foreign producers. Similarly, the coarse comminuted cooked sausages from foreign producers contained higher nitrite compared to domestically produced cooked sausages. According to National and EU Regulations, the maximum allowed nitrate content (expressed as NaNO2) is 150 mg/kg. All tested cooked sausages had nitrite levels below the regulatory limits set by National Regulation and Regulation (EC) No. 601/2014, but the highest nitrite contents were found in cooked sausages from foreign producers.

AB  - Honey is a natural substance produced by honey bees (the genus Apis) enjoyed by people due to its unique nutritional and medicinal properties. The aim of this study was to determine the physicochemical parameters (moisture, ash, water-insoluble content, reducing sugars, sucrose, five acidity, diastase activity, hydroxymethylfurfural, and electrical conductivity) and microbiological status (total number of aerobic mesophilic bacteria, total number of sulfite-reducing clostridia, the presence of Salmonella spp., total numbers of fungi and yeasts and the presence of Clostridium botulinum) in honey (honeydew, blossom, sunflower, acacia, and linden) produced in an urban environment in Serbia. We analyzed 19 apiary samples of honey, collected during the 2011 harvesting season, by using recommendation methods. Physicochemical parameters of the examined honey produced in the urban environment indicated the honeys were of acceptable quality. Bacillus spp. were detected in four honeys, yeasts were detected in three honeys, and Clostridium botulinum type E was detected in one honey using PCR. The current study also showed the presence of diverse honey varieties in Serbia.
