Environmental and physico-chemical factors induce VBNC state in Listeria monocytogenes.
Investigations of bacterial survival in natural environments have indicated that some organisms lose culturability on appropriate media under certain conditions and yet still exhibit signs of metabolic activity and thus viability. This reproducible loss of culturability in many bacterial species led to the description of a "Viable But Non Culturable" (VBNC) state. The purpose of this article is...
متن کاملEpidemiological burden of Listeria monocytogenes in Iran
Objective(s): Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogenic bacteria causing the infection listeriosis, which possibly affects all people, particularly immunocompromised persons and pregnant women. This microorganism can be found in several processed foods, dairy products, raw milk, meat and fish products, seafoods, eggs, fruits, and vegetables. This review discusses about the epidemiologica...
متن کاملListeria monocytogenes cell walls induce decreased resistance to infection.
A significant decrease in murine resistance to Listeria monocytogenes was induced by using crude Listeria cell wall fraction (LCWF) and purified Listeria cell walls (PF). When equal amounts of these materials were injected, PF was more effective than LCWF in decreasing resistance. The PF effect was dose dependent when measured either as a decrease in 50% lethal dose of the Listeria challenge or...
متن کاملAn In Vitro Study on Impact of Environmental Stresses on Growth, Morphological and Biochemical Features of Listeria monocytogenes PTCC 1297
Introduction: Listeria monocytogenes is a serious concern for the food industry due to its high case fatality rate, widespread distribution, ability to survive a wide variety of food processing conditions, and the severity of the illness associated with this pathogen infection. The objective of this study was to determine the growth, cell morphology and biochemical characteristics of L. monocyt...
متن کاملAvirulence of viable but non-culturable Listeria monocytogenes cells demonstrated by in vitro and in vivo models.
The virulence of Viable But Non-Culturable (VBNC) cells of 4 strains of Listeria monocytogenes was investigated in both a human adenocarcinoma cell line (HT-29) and a mouse model. LO 28, ATCC 19115 and CNL 895807 strains of Listeria monocytogenes became VBNC when incubated in microcosm water at 20 degrees C and Scott A strain at 4 degrees C. No culturable bacteria were detected in the VBNC stat...
