Social Facilitation of Eating Familiar Food in Tufted Capuchins (Cebus apella): Does it Involve Behavioral Coordination?
International Journal of Primatology, 2005Co-Authors: Amy T. Galloway, Elsa Addessi, Dorothy M. Fragaszy, Elisabetta VisalberghiAbstract:Social facilitation of eating familiar Foods might serve to synchronize eating activities within groups. We aimed to assess whether capuchins (Cebus apella) are prompted to eat when observing other conspecifics eating a familiar Food. Subjects were 8 male captive-born tufted capuchins. One pair of capuchins acted as demonstrators for the other 6 observer subjects. In the Experimental condition, the demonstrator pair was given fresh chow in addition to having access to the Leftover Food and ate continuously. In the Control condition, the demonstrator pair had access to Food Leftover from the morning feed and ate very little. The initiation of feeding by the demonstrator pair prompted the initiation of feeding behavior in the observers, and the latter ate significantly more of their Leftovers in the Experimental than in the Control condition. The tempo ofthe social facilitation of eating familiar Foods in capuchins supportisomorphic coordination, a process that occurs when one individual’s activity focuses the attention of another individual to the same activity, thereby increasing behavioral similarity in a group.

Social Facilitation of Eating Familiar Food in Tufted Capuchins 189
Cambridge University Press, 2003Co-Authors: Amy T. Galloway, Elsa Addessi, Dorothy M. Fragaszy, Elisabetta VisalberghiAbstract:Social facilitation of eating familiar Foods might serve to synchronize eating activities within groups. We aimed to assess whether capuchins (Cebus apella) are prompted to eat when observing other conspecifics eat-ing a familiar Food. Subjects were 8 male captive-born tufted capuchins. One pair of capuchins acted as demonstrators for the other 6 observer subjects. In the Experimental condition, the demonstrator pair was given fresh chow in addition to having access to the Leftover Food and ate continuously.

The initiation of feeding by the demon-strator pair prompted the initiation of feeding behavior in the observers, and the latter ate significantly more of their Leftovers in the Experimental than in the Control condition. The tempo of the social facilitation of eating fa-miliar Foods in capuchins support isomorphic coordination, a process that occurs when one individual’s activity focuses the attention of another in-dividual to the same activity, thereby increasing behavioral similarity in a group.

Survey of a Food poisoning case cause by Salmonella enteritidis
Journal of Tropical Medicine, 2013Co-Authors: Yang HuiAbstract:Objective To detect the pathogen of bacterial Food poisoning in order to provide basis for Food poisoning investigation and emergency treatment.Method A total of 36 samples of patients' swabs and Leftover Food were detected according to WS/T 9-2003,WS 271-2007 and national standard methods in microbiological examination of Food hygiene (GB/T4789-2003,GB/T4789-2008,GB/T4789-2010).Result Salmonella enteritidis were found in Leftover Food,patients' and kitchen workers' anal swabs.A total of 21 Salmonella spp.were detected from 36 samples.Conclusion Combining the epidemiological survey,clinical symptoms and the laboratory test results,this Food poisoning was caused by Salmonella enteritidis.
