List the unique characteristics of Listeria monocytogenes

Expert Solution

Step 1

One of the most common foodborne pathogens is Listeria monocytogenes. Listeria is Gram-positive facultatively anaerobic and non-spore-forming bacteria. Poultry meat and products are one of the main vectors for pathogenic L. monocytogenes strains in humans. Poultry products are a common part of people's diets, and they are gaining popularity due to their high protein content and low-fat content. As a result, it had a higher rate of consumption, particularly in barbecue form, where bacterial growth is favored. Isolates of L. monocytogenes are necessary for epidemiological investigations and determining the source of contamination.
