“…These reports, and many others (136,235), indicate that infections with members of this genus were seen prior to its first description in 1926 by Murray et al (164). The latter isolated the bacterium from the liver of sick rabbits and guinea pigs and named it Bacterium monocytogenes.…”

“…However, the possibility that they were, in fact, measuring some other change in blood serum that may occur as a result of abortion was not eliminated. This idea is supported by the fact that, even in many cases of confirmed listeric infection, there is no rise in detectable antibodies (89,136,223,235). It is especially true of women who give birth to infants from whom the bacterium was isolated.…”

“…Gray et al (83) used the method described on the yellowing pages in studies on comparative virulence of smooth and rough cultures of L. monocytogenes. In view of the well-established fact that many human patients, particularly newborn ones, develop listeric skin lesions (89,136,235), plus the recent reports of skin lesions developing on the hands and arms of veterinarians after handling infected aborted bovine fetuses (51,120,189), and skin lesions due to L. monocytogenes of more obscure origin (157,173), perhaps such lesions should be investigated further.…”

“…It is conceivable that this may also occur in human infants, and that retarded mental development may be a sequel. Retarded mental development has been reported as not uncommon after confirmed listeric meningitis in infants (89,136,235).…”

“…However, his suggestion was not widely accepted, particularly in his native Denmark. Yet reports of similar isolations trickled into the literature with tantalizing frequency (73,136,235); actually, so much so, that both Blakiston's and Dorland's medical dictionaries still erroneousy give L. monocytogenes as the cause of infectious mononucleosis, without mentioning its role in other disorders! But the number of cases from which the bacterium could not be isolated always continued to be far greater.…”
