Methods for the isolation and identification of Listeria spp. and Listeria monocytogenes: a review.
Listeria monocytogenes is an important food-borne pathogen and is widely tested for in food, environmental and clinical samples. Identification traditionally involved culture methods based on selective enrichment and plating followed by the characterization of Listeria spp. based on colony morphology, sugar fermentation and haemolytic properties. These methods are the gold standard; but they ar...
متن کاملInvestigating the prevalence of resistance genes in Listeria monocytogenes isolated from food and clinical samples
Background: Listeriosis can be fatal for vulnerable groups of society. The disease has been widespread in recent years due to the large consumption of dairy and meat products. There is little information about the susceptibility of antibiotics and the pattern of Listeria monostigenesis gene resistance in Iranian society. Accordingly, the present study was conducted to investigate the antibiotic...
متن کاملFREQUENCY AND ANTIBACTERIAL RESISTANCE OF LISTERIA SPP. ISOLATED FROM THE FOOD AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES IN URMIA
Background & Aims: Genus Listeria especially Listeria monocytogenes (L.monocytogenes), as a food-borne pathogen, is the causative agent of Listeriosis that could be fatal in high risk subjects such as pregnant women, immunocompromised persons, neonates, and elderly. Materials & Methods: In the present study, the frequency of Listeria spp. and L.monocytogenes in 277 food and environmental sampl...
متن کاملMolecular Identification of Listeria monocytogenes in Raw Hamburgers from Kerman, South-East of Iran
Background: Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive and facultative anaerobic food-borne bacterium which is capable of intra and extra cellular growth. L. monocytogenes usually can exist on different surfaces and instruments at production and processing sites of food products with animal origin. In Iran, the consumption of burger has increased recently, but its safety is still of great concer...
متن کاملThe investigation of molecular characterization of presumptive Listeria monocytogenes isolates from a food-processing environment
Background: Listeria is a Gram-positive, non-spore forming, facultative anaerobic intracellular bacterium. The most important pathogens in mammals include Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria ivanovii. The former generally causes disease and death in both humans and animals while the latter performs sporadically and primarily causes illness in ruminant...
