Application of MinION sequencing as a tool for the rapid detection and characterization of Listeria monocytogenes in smoked salmon

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Microbial pathogens may be present in different types of foods, and hence the development of novel methods to assure consumers' safeness is of great interest. Molecular methods are known to provide sensitive and rapid results; however, they are typically
