Download a copy today. Thermo Scientific Food Microbiology Methods: Listeria species and Listeria monocytogenes Chapter.

Understanding and effectively testing for Listeria - especially Listeria monocytogenes - is essential for food safety, regulatory compliance, and protecting public health. Unlike many other foodborne pathogens, Listeria can both survive and grow at refrigeration temperatures. This ability, along with the risk of cross-contamination to other foods and surfaces, contributes to its persistence in food processing environments and makes it a significant concern for food safety.

 

This comprehensive guide brings together internationally accepted reference methods alongside validated alternative workflows to support more efficient and reliable testing in food, environmental, and production laboratory settings.

 

In this free guide, you’ll find:

  • An overview of ISO, FDA and USDA reference methods for Listeria and Listeria monocytogenes detection and enumeration.

  • Detailed comparisons between traditional culture techniques and rapid PCR workflows.

  • Validated methodologies including Thermo Scientific SureTect PCR method, chromogenic media workflows, and Thermo Scientific Precis detection and enumeration protocols.

  • Practical insights into method validation standards (e.g., AOAC, ISO 16140-2) and workflow optimisation.  

 

Whether you’re a laboratory manager, quality assurance specialist, or microbiologist, this guide will help you choose the right approach for your testing needs and streamline your Listeria testing processes.
