Listeria monocytogenes-Can We Reduce or Eliminate It From Food Commodities? [PDF]

Mol Nutr Food Res
Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen responsible for listeriosis. Traditional control methods include heat treatment, high‐pressure processing, irradiation, and acidification, all aimed at reducing bacterial load in foods. Emerging strategies include gene expression, CRISPR‐Cas9, bacteriophage, competitive exclusion via beneficial microbes ...
