Uncovering Listeria monocytogenes hypervirulence by harnessing its biodiversity

Nature Genetics, 2016
Microbial pathogenesis studies are typically performed with reference strains, thereby overlooking within-species heterogeneity in microbial virulence.

An ultrasensitive CRISPR/Cas12a based electrochemical biosensor for Listeria monocytogenes detection.

Biosensors & bioelectronics, 2021
Listeria monocytogenes is an important foodborne pathogen that can cause listeriosis with high patient mortality. Accordingly, it is necessary to develop a L. monocytogenes detection platform with high specificity, sensitivity, and exploitability. CRISPR/

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.

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

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.

A review of Listeria monocytogenes from meat and meat products: Epidemiology, virulence factors, antimicrobial resistance and diagnosis

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 2020
Listeria monocytogenes is a zoonotic food-borne pathogen that is associated with serious public health and economic implications. In animals, L. monocytogenes can be associated with clinical listeriosis, which is characterised by symptoms such as ...
