Immobilization and detection of Listeria monocytogenes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A procedure was developed for immobilization of Listeria monocytogenes cells on metal hydroxides coupled with detection and enumeration using an automated optical system. The results of the immobilization procedure (<1 h) and detection during overnight incubation agreed with calculated plate counts, and this technique is simple and rapid and provides samples that are ready for confirmation of the presence of the pathogen by rapid methods.
