Epidemiology

Pathology

2 types of food poisoning due to Bacillus cereus enterotoxins:

Laboratory

Management

  • infection is self-limited
  • adequate hydration
  • diarrhea form of B cereus does not occur when rice is heated to 95 C[3]
  • killing Bacillus cereus
    • steaming under pressure, roasting, frying, 7 grilling foods will kill the bacteria & spores if temperatures within foods are >= 145 F (63 C)
