Stress survival islets contribute to clonal and serotype-specific differences in L. monocytogenes IOP Publishing https://unilib.phaidrabg.rs/o:146 doi:10.1088/1755-1315/854/1/012050 2021 Listeria monocytogenes is an important opportunistic foodborne pathogen causing listeriosis, an often fatal infection leading to meningitis, sepsis, or infection of the fetus and abortion in susceptible individuals. Diverse ready-to-eat food (RTE) like dairy, meat, fish, vegetables, and complex foods are often linked with listeriosis outbreaks. L. monocytogenes is capable of surviving in stressful environmental conditions and grow in refrigerated foods. Regarding stress-related genes, SSI-1 contributes to the survival of cells under suboptimal conditions, such as high salt content and acidic environment. At the same time, SSI-2 is responsible for persistence under alkaline and oxidative stresses. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode Lakićević, Brankica Biase, Daniela De Velebit, Branko Mitrović, Radmila Janković, Vesna Milojević, Lazar Ruppitsch, Werner info:eu-repo/semantics/conferenceProceedings eng application/pdf 1306816 bytes IOP Conf.
