Next-day detection of viable Listeria monocytogenes by multiplex reverse transcriptase real-time PCR

Sarah Azinheiro et al.

Summary: A multiplex RT-qPCR method was developed to specifically detect live bacteria, with two genetic targets co-amplified for improved specificity and an Internal Amplification Control to rule out false negative results due to reaction inhibition. The method demonstrated high sensitivity in smoked salmon samples inoculated with live and dead bacteria, showing almost complete concordance with the reference standard ISO 11290.

Listeria ilorinensis sp. nov., isolated from cow milk cheese in Nigeria

Ibrahim Adisa Raufu et al.

Summary: During microbial assessment of cow milk cheese products in Ilorin, Nigeria, a new species of Listeria was discovered. This isolate showed highest similarity to Listeria costaricensis and was named Listeria ilorinensis. It differs from L. costaricensis phenotypically and is proposed to be non-pathogenic for humans and animals.

In-Situ Monitoring of Real-Time Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification with QCM: Detecting Listeria monocytogenes

Sirirat Wachiralurpan et al.

Summary: Functionalized DNA sequences combined with transducers show promise for specific microbe detection, with LAMP as an example for real-time monitoring. The study demonstrates in situ detection of LAMP products by hybridizing them with anchored thiolated-ssDNA on QCM electrodes, resulting in irreversible sensor responses confirmed by XPS analysis.

Genetic diversity of Listeria monocytogenes isolated from ready-to-eat food products in retail in Poland

Elzbieta Mac et al.

Summary: The study characterizes Listeria monocytogenes isolated from retail ready-to-eat food products in Poland from 2017 to 2019, revealing antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene presence. The majority of strains belong to major circulating clones in Europe, suggesting a potential source of human listeriosis in RTE food products.

Specific detection of the most prevalent five Listeria strains and unspecific detection of 15 Listeria using multiplex real-time PCR

Rene Koppel et al.

Summary: Listeria in food poses a serious risk to consumer health, and reliable methods are needed for detection. While various PCR systems have been developed for identifying Listeria strains, they may not detect all known strains. This study introduces a novel multiplex real-time PCR method that can simultaneously detect multiple common and known Listeria strains.

Listeria cossartiae sp. nov., Listeria immobilis sp. nov., Listeria portnoyi sp. nov. and Listeria rustica sp. nov., isolated from agricultural water and natural environments

Catharine R. Carlin et al.

Summary: A total of 27 Listeria isolates were obtained from soil samples in the contiguous United States and an agricultural water sample in New York, which could not be classified to the species level. Based on whole-genome sequence analysis, these 27 isolates form five distinct clusters, each representing a novel species with <95% similarity to any currently described Listeria species. Of the five novel species, three cluster with the Listeria sensu stricto clade and two cluster with sensu lato. The study also identified two proposed novel sensu lato species.

Detection and Virulence Characterization of Listeria monocytogenes Strains in Ready-to-Eat Products

Giulia Amagliani et al.

Summary: The public health risk posed by Listeria monocytogenes in ready-to-eat foods depends on the control effectiveness at every stage of production and the strains involved. Current analytical methods cannot differentiate between virulent and hypovirulent strains, making the detection of specific virulence genes important for assigning risk levels to contaminated foods.
