The occurrence of Listeria monocytogenes in cheese from a manufacturer associated with a case of listeriosis

A case of listeriosis was associated with the consumption of a soft cheese produced in England. Goats cheese and other products from the same food manufacturer were examined for the presence of Listeria over the following 11 months. Listeria monocytogenes was isolated from 16 of 25 cheese samples on retail sale, 12 of 24 cheese samples obtained directly from the factory, and from shelving within the plant. Phage-typing of 68 isolates of L. monocytogenes from cheese samples and the factory showed that 66 (97%) were indistinguishable from the strain isolated from the patient's cerebrospinal fluid and stool. L. monocytogenes was not isolated from seven goats milk or two yoghurt samples. Listeria innocua was isolated from 10 cheese samples, two of which contained no other species of Listeria. Levels of L. monocytogenes shortly after production were low (<10/g), but were higher (10⁵–10⁷ cfu/g) in six of the 16 cheese samples obtained from retail outlets. Multiplication of L. monocytogenes was demonstrated in cheeses contaminated at the factory and held at 4°C in the laboratory.     

Growth of Listeria monocytogenes in refrigerated ready-to-eat foods in Japan

The ability of L. monocytogenes to grow in a series of Japanese ready-to-eat (RTE) foods, including boiled baby sardine and Japanese pickle, was tested at two different refrigeration temperatures. In RTE foods in which L. monocytogenes can grow, growth was significantly higher at 10°C than that at 4°C during their shelf lives and growth patterns varied extensively among the different types of foods. However, growth did not occur at 4°C within the shelf life of certain RTE foods, such as broiled squid. The patterns of growth were varied extensively with different sample types. These results suggest that some types of traditional Japanese RTE foods stored at 10°C may be potential sources of listeriosis. To reduce the risk of food-borne listeriosis, studies to determine the contamination levels in RTE foods and the effects of storage temperature on their shelf lives are needed.

Recent developments in molecular sub-typing of Listeria monocytogenes

As a vast majority of the human listeriosis cases are caused by serotypes 1/2a, 1/2b and 4b strains, it is imperative that strains from clinical as well as from food and environment are further characterised so that accurate and timely epidemiological determination of sources of the contamination can be established to minimise the disease burden. Recent developments in the field of genomics provide a great opportunity to use these tools towards the development of molecular sub-typing techniques with a greater degree of discrimination spanning the entire length of the genome. This brief review summarises a few of these DNA-based techniques with an emphasis on DNA microarray and other whole genome sequencing-based approaches and their usefulness in Listeria monocytogenes sub-typing and outbreak investigations.     

Control of Listeria monocytogenes in Vacuum-Packaged Pre-Peeled Potatoes

Growth of Listeria monocytogenes on the surface of fresh peeled potatoes, treated with sulfite or a commercial browning inhibitor (CBI), packaged under vacuum and stored at 4,15 and 28°C was determined. At 4°C, L. monocytogenes did not grow in all treated potatoes even after 21 days. At 15°C, L. monocytogenes grew to 7 log₁₀ CFU/g within 12 days in the potatoes treated with sulfite or CBI. At 28°C, L. monocytogenes population was greater than 3 log₁₀ CFU/g by 24 h in all samples regardless of treatment. Sulfites or a CBI appeared to provide a measure of safety in pre-peeled potatoes packaged under vacuum when kept at proper refrigeration temperatures.

Listeria monocytogenes: Occurrence in beef and identification of the main contamination points in processing plants

This study aimed to establish the occurrence of Listeria spp., especially L. monocytogenes and its main serotypes, in beef and processing plants. A total of 443 samples were obtained from equipment, installations and products from 11 meat processing establishments from Paraná state, Brazil. All samples were analyzed using USDA methodology for Listeria spp. detection, followed by species identification. The occurrence of Listeria spp. in the samples was 38.1% of which 51.4% were from equipment, 35.4% from installations and 30.2% from products. The identified species were: L. monocytogenes (12.6%), L. innocua (78.4%), L. seeligeri (1.2%), L. welshimeri (7.2%) and L. grayi (0.6%). The identified serotypes of L. monocytogenes were 1/2a and 4b. The results demonstrate the significance of equipment and installations as sources of contamination by Listeria spp. and L. monocytogenes in the processing of beef and meat products.

Growth of Listeria monocytogenes on vacuum-packaged horsemeat for human consumption

In order to investigate the likelihood of Listeria monocytogenes (serotype 4b, ATCC 19115) growth on vacuum-packaged horsemeat at refrigeration temperature, fourteen horsemeat surface/volume homogeneous 150 g weight pieces were superficially inoculated with serotype 4b L. monocytogenes and vacuum packaged. The samples were stored at 4 ± 1 °C. Two pieces (one for pH determination and one for L. monocytogenes counts) were examined at days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42. Surface pH did not show significant variations during the experiment. The average L. monocytogenes initial contamination level was 1.77log₁₀ CFU/g. A lag phase of 7 days was recorded. The exponential growth rate between day 7 to day 35 was 0.125log₁₀ CFU/day, corresponding to 3.51log₁₀ CFU/g in 28 days. At the end of the experiment the mean L. monocytogenes log₁₀ CFU/g was 5.78.     

Listeria monocytogenes in retail establishments: Contamination routes and control strategies

In the past two decades, serious outbreaks of foodborne disease were caused by Listeria monocytogenes, a pathogen frequently found in delicatessens at retail. Although the prevalence of listeriosis is not high, the severity of disease is significant, with high hospitalization and mortality rates. Potential sources of L. monocytogenes and food contamination routes in retail and food service operations include incoming raw materials, food products, food handlers, customers, vendors, and environmental sources. Risk mitigation strategies for L. monocytogenes should be based on integrated control along the food chain continuum, from farm to retail establishment.     

Characterization of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innocua from a vegetable processing plant by RAPD and REA

The incidence of Listeria monocytogenes in a vegetable processing plant was investigated over a 23-month period. Frozen ready-to-eat vegetable samples, well as the plant environment, were sampled. The molecular subtyping techniques, Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and Restriction Endonuclease Analyses (REA), were performed to help investigate the origin and routes of Listeria dissemination.

The low and sporadic incidence of L. monocytogenes made it impossible to establish an epidemiological sequence in the processing plant, though a case of cross-contamination between tomato and ratatouille was detected. Listeria innocua subtyping, however, allowed us to determine the prevalence of several strains in vegetables, and their presence on machinery samples suggested the possibility of cross-contamination during processing.

The low incidence of L. monocytogenes indicated that the risk of listeriosis transmission by vegetable consumption is low. On the other hand, the isolation of the same strain of L. innocua in several surveys pointed out the risk of colonisation on surfaces and machinery. The persistence of Listeria spp. is a cause for concern as can lead to future contamination of vegetables processed in the plant and to a possible increased risk for health. Therefore, periodic controls for the presence of Listeria spp. and a further review of the cleaning and disinfection procedures used in frozen vegetable plants are recommended.     

二氧化氯对苹果表面Listeria monocytogenes杀菌效果的研究

Gamma irradiation as a means to eliminate Listeria monocytogenes from frozen chicken meat

Cells of Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 35152 were sensitive to gamma irradiation in phosphate buffer, pH 7.00 (D₁₀, dose required for 10% survival—0.15 kGy) at 0–5°C. The cells showed higher radiation survival when irradiated under frozen condition, with a D₁₀ of 0.3 kGy. The protection offered by shrimp/chicken/kheema homogenates (100 g litre^?1) was evidenced by even higher D₁₀ values (0.5 kGy) at both 0–5°C and cryogenic temperature. Boneless chicken meat samples were artificially inoculated with L monocytogenes ATCC 35152 cells at low (5 × 10³) colony-forming unit (cfu) g^?1 and high (5 × 10⁶ cfu g^?1) concentrations and irradiated at 1, 3, 4, 6 kGy doses under cryogenic conditions. The efficacy of the radiation process was evaluated by detecting L monocytogenes during storage at 2–4°C in the irradiated samples. These studies, when repeated with three other serotypes of L monocytogenes, clearly suggested the need for a dose of 3 kGy for elimination of 10³ cfu cells of L monocytogenes g^?1 from air-packed frozen chicken meat.

Adhesion of Listeria monocytogenes to materials commonly found in domestic kitchens

The aim of this work was to investigate the adhesion of Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 15313 to glass, granite, marble, polypropylene from a bowl (PPb), polypropylene from a cutting board (PPcb) and stainless steel (SS), which are materials commonly used in kitchens. Marble and granite were chosen because they are applied as kitchen bench covers and pavements in many countries and there are no literature reports on their behaviour in terms of microbial adhesion. The effect of surface hydrophobicity and roughness on the adhesion process was also analysed. The results showed that the highest extent of adhesion of L. monocytogenes occurred to stainless steel, followed by glass and in less extent to the other materials studied. However, it was not possible to establish a correlation between surface hydrophobicity or roughness and the extent of adhesion of L. monocytogenes . The adherence of L. monocytogenes should be dependent on other factors, like the presence of exopolymers and surface charge.
