Description:
Listeria monocytogenes is a zoonotic pathogen. It can cause listeriosis in humans and animals, which is mainly manifested as sepsis, meningitis and mononucleosis. The species is widely found in nature, and especially Listeria monocytogenes, when present in food, is dangerous to human safety. Since the bacteria can still grow and reproduce at 4 °C, it is one of the main pathogens that threaten human health in refrigerated food. Therefore, awareness in microbiological testing against Listeria monocytogenes is strongly encouraged.
Compared to the traditional test method, in which medium preparation, disinfection and cleaning is involved, a lot of labor is saved by using the FSTest Listeria monocytogenes Count Plate. It is intended to rapidly detect Listeria monocytogenes in food, water and monitor surface hygiene of environmental samples. Therefore, it is very suitable for food manufacturers and institute of food hygiene inspection.
