Listeria SPP. and enteric pathogens in raw meat: a survey in the Ferrara area
Abstract
The Authors report the results of a study performed on 113 samples of raw meat of 6 different animal species in order to evaluate the extent of contamination by some organisms responsible for food-borne infections. A total of 2 strains of Salmonella (1.7%), 36 of Yersinia (31.8%), 35 of Campylobacter (30.9%) and 13 of Listeria (11.5%) were isolated. The possible role of contaminated meat in cases of human listeriosis is pointed out.
