Abstract

Listeria monocytogenes can persist in food processing environments for months to decades and spread through the food system by, e.g., contaminated raw materials. Knowledge of the distribution and diversity of L. monocytogenes is important in outbreak investigations and is essential to effectively track and control this pathogen in the food system.
