“…Members of the genus Bacillus are well known for their great diversity and widespread distribution in nature (Oh et al, 2012) and these bacteria Bacillus cereus group (B. cereus sensulato) consisting of the genetically closely related species B. cereus, B. thuringiensis, B. anthracis, B. mycoides, B. pseudomycoides, and B. weihenstephanensis is widely recognized as the causative agent of food borne illness (Helgason et al, 2000;Kim et al, 2012;Jimenez et al, 2013). Due to its wide distribution in the environment and ability to produce spores, the Gram-positive, rodshaped, opportunistic human pathogen grow well in wide adverse environmental condition, the pH ranges from 4.5 to 9.3, with high water activity 0.92 and the temperature ranges for growth from 4ºC to 50ºC (Kramer and Gilbert, 1989).…”
