Characterization of Listeria monocytogenes on Retail Food from Jiangsu Province, China

Abstract:

Listeria monocytogenes isolates recovered from retail foods were characterized by serotyping, genotyping using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Six serotypes were identified among the isolates and the predominant serotype was 1/2a (42, 48.8%). PFGE differentiated the 86 isolates into 23 ApaI restriction patterns. Twenty-five (29.1%) of the L.monocytogenes strains exhibited resistance to at least one antimicrobial. Resistance to ciprofloxacin (17.4% of the isolates were resistant) and resistance to tetracycline (17.4%) were observed frequently.
