Phylogenetic Analysis and Genome-Wide Association Study Applied to an Italian Listeria monocytogenes Outbreak

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
From May 2015 to March 2016, a severe outbreak due to Listeria monocytogenes ST7 strain occurred in Central Italy and caused 24 confirmed clinical cases. The epidemic strain was deeply investigated using whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis.

Identification by High-Throughput Real-Time PCR of 30 Major Circulating Listeria monocytogenes Clonal Complexes in Europe

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023
Listeria monocytogenes is a ubiquitous bacterium that causes a foodborne illness, listeriosis. Most strains can be classified into major clonal complexes (CCs) that account for the majority of outbreaks and sporadic cases in Europe. In addition to the 20

Invasive listeriosis outbreaks and salmon products: a genomic, epidemiological study

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
Invasive listeriosis, caused by Listeria (L.) monocytogenes, is a severe foodborne infection, especially for immunocompromised individuals. The aim of our investigation was the identification and analysis of listeriosis outbreaks in Germany with smoked ...

Atypical Serogroup IVb-v1 of Listeria monocytogenes Assigned to New ST2801, Widely Spread and Persistent in the Environment of a Pork-Meat Producing Plant of Central Italy

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
In this study, we characterized 84 Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) strains having an atypical IVb-v1 profile and isolated in a meat producing plant of Central Italy. They were assigned to the new MLST type ST2801 (CC218).

Diagnostic challenges with accurate identification of Listeria monocytogenes isolates from food and environmental samples in South Africa

African Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 2022
Background: The 2017–2018 listeriosis outbreak in South Africa warranted testing for Listeria monocytogenes in food products and processing environments. Diagnostic tests are needed to accurately differentiate L. monocytogenes from other Listeria species.

Hyper-Virulent Listeria monocytogenes Strains Associated With Respiratory Infections in Central Italy

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) is a foodborne pathogen causing listeriosis. Invasive forms of the disease mainly manifest as septicaemia, meningitis and maternal-neonatal infections. Lm-associated respiratory infections are very rare and little known.

OCCURRENCE OF LISTERIA SPECIES IN LAYING HENS [PDF]

Assiut Veterinary Medical Journal, 1997
SUMMARY Eggs and droppings of laying hens were examined for the presence of listeria organisms. The recovery rates of L. monocytogenes and other listeria species of the egg shell rinses amounted to 8.3% and 3.3% respectively. Detection of Listeria failed

Chemiluminescence by Listeria monocytogenes [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1980
Listeria monocytogenes cells suspended in brain heart infusion broth or in carbonated saline solution emitted light (chemiluminescence) that could be detected by a liquid scintillation spectrometer. This chemiluminescence was inhibited by superoxide dismutase and catalase but not by the hydroxyl radical scavengers mannitol and benzoate; it was also ...
