The distributions of the times to turbidity for wells inoculated with single cells of Listeria innocua were determined in different environmental conditions (pH 4.5 to 7 and with 0.5% to 8% of NaCl at 30 degrees C). It was established by... more
When shredded or sliced carrots were inoculated with Listeria monocytogenes the number of viable listerias decreased rapidly. On carrot slices stored at 8 degrees C there was a decrease after 3d followed by an increase, after 7d, to... more
To ensure that the residents are kept as safe as possible from food poisoning and food-associated illness, by adopting the highest standards of food hygiene and food preparation. If food poisoning does occur, the organization will ensure... more
A modification to Performance-Tested MethodSM (PTM) 070601, Reveal® Listeria Test (Reveal), is described. The modified method uses a new media formulation, LESS enrichment broth, in single-step enrichment protocols for both foods and... more
The antilisterial efficiency of three bacteriocins from lactic acid bacteria, lactocin 705 (produced by L. casei CRL705, 17000 AU/ml), enterocin CRL35 (produced by E. faecium CRL35, 17000 AU/ml), and nisin (2000 IU/ml), was tested in... more
A pathogen is defined as a bacterial, viral or other microbial agent that causes disease. It might therefore be a surprise that studies with a number of pathogens have, in recent years, yielded some of the most exciting new insights into... more
The RapidChek Listeria NextDay test system is designed for the presumptive detection and identification of Listeria species in food in a minimum of 27 hours via a one-step system. This study evaluated the performance of RapidChek... more
We aimed at evaluating the prevalence of Listeria species isolated from food samples and characterizing food and human cases isolates. Between 2005 and 2007, one hundred food samples collected in the markets of Tunis were analysed in our... more
Batch culture of biofilms on peg lids is a versatile method that can be used for microtiter determinations of biofilm antimicrobial susceptibility. In this paper, we describe a core protocol and a set of parameters (surface composition,... more
The antimicrobial activity against Listeria innocua of three different combined non-thermal treatments, along with the impact on color and texture on green bean samples, was evaluated. In this study a bioactive coating formulation based... more
Lactobacillus curvatus LTH 1174, a strain isolated from fermented sausage, produces the antilisterial bacteriocin curvacin A. Its biokinetics of cell growth and bacteriocin production as a function of temperature (20-38 degrees C) and pH... more
This study compares the feature of different media with the combination of selective with non-selective media in a TAL method for recovery of Listeria innocua cells exposed to thermal treatments. Experiments were conducted in broth at... more
Prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of Listeria, Salmonella,
and Yersinia species isolates in ducks and geese
and Yersinia species isolates in ducks and geese
We investigated the degree of physiological damage to bacterial cells caused by optical trapping using a 1,064-nm laser. The physiological condition of the cells was determined by their ability to maintain a pH gradient across the cell... more
