Aerosol studies with Listeria innocua and Listeria monocytogenes.
Aerosol studies of Listeria monocytogenes in food processing plants have been limited by lack of a suitable surrogate microorganism. The objective of this study was to investigate the potential of using green fluorescent protein-labeled strains of Listeria innocua as a surrogate for L. monocytogenes for aerosol studies. These studies were conducted in a laboratory bioaerosol chamber and a pilot...
متن کاملListeria monocytogenes pathogenicity
Listeriolysin O (LLO) and ActA are essential virulence determinants for Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis. Transcription of actA and hly , encoding LLO, is regulated by PrfA and increases dramatically during intracellular infection. The 5 ¢ untranslated regions (5 ¢ UTRs) of actA and prfA have been shown to upregulate expression of their respective gene products. Here, we demonstrate that the...
متن کاملPolymorphism of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innocua strains isolated from short-ripened cheeses.
Thirty isolates of Listeria monocytogenes and 18 of L. innocua obtained from different short-ripened cheeses manufactured in Asturias (northern Spain), were compared with each other and with reference strains using serotype, phage type and pulsed-field restriction endonuclease digestion profiles analysis of the total DNA. Restriction enzymes ApaI and SmaI defined five clusters in L. monocytogen...
متن کاملPhenotypic and Genotypic Characterization of Atypical Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria innocua Isolated from Swine Slaughterhouses and Meat Markets
In the last decade, atypical Listeria monocytogenes and L. innocua strains have been detected in food and the environment. Because of mutations in the major virulence genes, these strains have different virulence intensities in eukaryotic cells. In this study, we performed phenotypic and genotypic characterization of atypical L. monocytogenes and L. innocua isolates obtained from swine slaughte...
متن کاملPathogenicity of Listeria monocytogenes grown on crabmeat.
The pathogenicity of Listeria monocytogenes as influenced by growth on crabmeat at 5 and 10 degrees C was studied. Crabmeat was inoculated with L. monocytogenes V7 (ca. 10(4) CFU/g) and incubated for up to 14 days at 5 and 10 degrees C. At selected incubation times, L. monocytogenes was removed from crabmeat by washing with 0.1 M potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0), and populations were determi...
