Factors that Influence Biofilm Formation, Desiccation Resistance, and Sanitizer Susceptibility in Listeria monocytogenes at a Simulated Food Processing Plant Temperature of 15°C
(2015)Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic foodborne bacterium whose persistence in food processing environments is in part attributed to its biofilm formation. A library of 11,024 L. monocytogenes 568 (serotype 1/2a) Himar1 ... -
Fitness of Listeria monocytogenes and Other Listeria Species Isolated from Two Nova Scotia Watersheds
(2016-12-16)Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen known to colonize surfaces, form antimicrobial-resistant biofilms, and resist environmental stresses such as desiccation, helping it persist in food processing environments. ... -
Seasonal variation and biological effects on mudflat erodibility in the Minas Basin, Bay of Fundy
(2014-01-06)The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of intertidal mudflat biofilms on sediment erosion in the Minas Basin of the Bay of Fundy, Canada. From April through November 2012, sediment cores were collected ...
