role of Foods in sporadic listeriosis ii microbilogic and epidemiologic investigation
JAMA, 1992Co-Authors: Robert W Pinner, R E Weaver, Brian D Plikaytis, Michael W Reeves, Claire V Broome, Anne Schuchat, Katherine Deaver, B Swaminathan, Peggy S Hayes, Jay D WengerAbstract:Objective. —To evaluate the role of Foods in sporadic listeriosis. Design. —Microbiologic survey of Foods collected from refrigerators of patients with listeriosis identified through active laboratory-based surveillance. Patient and FoodListeria monocytogenesisolates were subtyped to identify Foods contaminated with the same strain ofL monocytogenesthat caused illness in the patient; samples of these Foods were obtained from the retail source. Setting. —Multistate population-based study conducted between 1988 and 1990. Results. —Listeria monocytogenesgrew from at least one Food Specimen in the refrigerators of 79 (64%) of 123 listeriosis patients; 11% of more than 2000 Food Specimens collected in the study containedL monocytogenes. Twenty-six (33%) of 79 refrigerators with Foods that grewL monocytogenescontained at least one Food isolate of the same strain as that in the corresponding patient, a frequency much higher than would be expected by chance (P Conclusion. —We identified specific Food andL monocytogenesisolate characteristics—ready-to-eat Foods, Foods containing higher concentrations ofL monocytogenes, and Foods containing serotype 4b—which were associated with disease-causing strains. These results can provide guidance to industry and regulatory agencies in developing strategies to prevent listeriosis. (JAMA. 1992;267:2046-2050)
