- Description
- This website contains the link to the research paper "Survey for Listeria monocytogenes in and on Ready-to-Eat Foods from Retail Establishments in the United States (2010 through 2013)" . A multiagency, multidisciplinary survey study (the Interagency Listeria monocytogenes Market Basket Survey) was undertaken to estimate the current prevalence and levels of L. monocytogenes in selected categories of deli-packaged and prepackaged RTE foods purchased at retail establishments in four FoodNet sites in the United States. The report describes the testing results from 16 product categories comprising 27,389 samples. This report is focused on the analysis of the proportion of L. monocytogenes–positive samples (without consideration of clustering effects), prevalence (with consideration of clustering effects), and levels in each of these 16 food categories. This study also included examination of the association between the prevalence of L. monocytogenes and manufacturing location, store type (national chain versus independent), state, and season and evaluation of the changes in the proportion of positive samples in comparison to related data already published in the United States over a decade ago.
