Bacillus cereus belongs to bacteria that cause food poisoning of diarrheal and emetic type. Due to the common occurrence in the environment and the ability to form resting structures called spores, B. cereus poses a threat to the safety of food products. Bacteria of the B. cereus group are mainly isolated from rice, pasta, meat, vegetables, dairy products, spices and ready- -to-eat foods. The risk of infection can be reduced by avoiding consumption of the products which are subjected to heat treatment and left at a room temperature as it favours germination of spores and production of heat-stable toxins.
