The occurrence of Listeria monocytogenes in goats, farm environment and invertebrates

Ecology of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria species in India: the occurrence, resistance to biocides, genomic landscape and biocontrol

“…In the case organized goat farms and their environment, L. monocytogenes was recovered from 12 samples of goats with a history of abortion and one each from the soil, fly, and tick samples (Kulesh et al ., 2019) and the L. monocytogenes isolates ( n = 14) were serogrouped as 4b, 4d, and 4e, and one as serogroup 1/2a, 1/2c, 3a, and 3c. As a whole, this study emphasized the role of vectors in the transmission of L. monocytogenes infections (Kulesh et al ., 2019).…”

“…Listeria spp. have also been detected in various animals, including ruminants, birds, marine life, insects, ticks, and crustaceans (Kulesh et al ., 2019; Matle et al ., 2020). Listeria spp.…”

“…We have been actively engaged for more than a decade in the standardization, development, and evaluation of the methods based on the virulence markers of L. monocytogenes and L. ivanovii , for rapid diagnosis of listeriosis primarily in animals and human beings (Rawool et al ., 2007; Barbuddhe et al ., 2012; Suryawanshi et al ., 2017). The presence of Listeria in different ecological niches have been recorded from India, including foods, soil, vegetables, mangrove swamps, seafood, freshwater fishes, clinical cases, and also insects (Parihar et al ., 2008; Barbuddhe et al ., 2012; Soni et al ., 2014; Doijad et al ., 2018; Kulesh et al ., 2019). Here, we reviewed the occurrence of Listeria in different sources in India, provide data on biofilm formation and resistance to biocides and provide epidemiological analysis on its genomic landscape.…”

Physicochemical and Microbial Properties of Dairy Barn Soils: A Case Study in Costa Rican Farm-Associated Soils Harboring the Foodborne Pathogen Listeria monocytogenes

“…L. monocytogenes exhibits a ubiquitous distribution, partially due to its ability to persist in saline, acidic, and thermal environments. It has been isolated from livestock, animal excreta, plants, soils, uncultivated fields, and many types of raw and minimally processed vegetables intended for human consumption [3][4][5][6][7]. It can be disseminated through diverse practices, including the animal waste recycling of composts as fertilizers in the organic production of fruits and vegetables, increasing the risk of pathogen transmission between soil, plants, and animals and/or humans [8,9].…”

Ultrasensitive detection of Listeria monocytogenes using solid‐state electrochemiluminescence biosensing based on the quenching effect of ferrocene on ruthenium pyridine

“…Listeria monocytogenes is the most virulent gram‐positive bacteria in Listeria . It was reported to be one of the four most pathogenic bacteria in foodstuffs in the 1990s, and a cause of human disease (Donnelly, 2002; Kulesh, Shinde, Khan, Chaudhari, & Barbuddhe, 2019). Listeria monocytogenes has strong resistance to stress and has the ability to adapt to a variety of conditions, such as acidic, high‐salt and refrigerated (2–4°C) environments (De Noordhout et al, 2014; Juan, Hina, Wei‐Jie, Yan‐Hong, & Tae‐Hoo, 2018).…”
