Probabilistic modeling approach for evaluating the compliance of ready-to-eat foods with new European Union safety criteria for Listeria monocytogenes
Article Abstract:
A probabilistic modeling approach for evaluating the compliance of ready-to-eat (RTE) sliced meat products with new European Union safety criteria for Listeria monocytogenes is discusses. The study shows that probabilistic analysis of the above components using Monte Carlo simulation can lead to realistic estimation of the behavior of Listeria monocytogenes throughout the food supply chain.

Microplate fluorescence assay for measurements of the ability of strains of listeria monocytogenes from meat and meat-processing plants to adhere to abiotic surfaces
Article Abstract:
A fluorescence-based microplate method is devised for screening isolates of Listeria monocytogenes for the ability to adhere to abiotic surfaces. The analysis provides better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in attachment and suggest solutions to eliminate them from food processing environments.

Multiplex PCR for simultaneous detection of bacteria of the genus Listeria, Listeria monocytogenes, and major sertypes and epidemic clones of L. monocytogenes
Article Abstract:
A manifold PCR assay detecting bacteria of genus list Listeria, Listeria monocytogenes, major sertypes and epidemic clones of L. monocytogenes were developed. Results conclude that the method is cheap, quick and dependable method for detecting and classifying this crucial food pathogen.
