Population Genetic Structure of Listeria monocytogenes Strains Isolated from the Pig and Pork Meat Production Chain in France

Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) is one of the main causative agents for foodborne infections in Europe in terms of severity of the illness and fatality rate (EFSA-ECDC, 2015). In France, listeriosis…

A Salmonella database to monitor and centralize regulatory own-checks results (CE) n°2073/2005 obtained by slaughterhouses

Salmonellosis is a major cause of foodborne outbreaks caused by bacteria in Europe. In 2014, the European Commission reinforced the survey of this contaminant in the pig industry by the…

Development of a quantitative PCR method coupled with PMA to quantify viable Salmonella spp. cells in the pork supply chain

In 2017, Salmonella spp. was implied in 30 % of foodborne diseases in France (SPF, 2019). Few data on the contamination levels of Salmonella spp. are available along the pork…

Ecology of Salmonella and antimicrobial resistance in a pig slaughterhouse

Salmonella is responsible for a large number of food associated infections. To guarantee food safety, a better understanding of Salmonella ecology and adaptation strategies on the food production chain constitutes…

Implantation of a strain of Salmonella Typhimurium and a strain of Salmonella Rissen in a pig herd with recurrent clinical salmonellosis

Clinical salmonellosis is rare, even though it can occur in pig herds. The aim of this study was to investigate the diversity of Salmonella strains isolated in a farrow-to-finish pig…

Investigating the genetic diversity of Listeria monocytogenes strains at the pig slaughterhouse to understand the source of strains isolated in the pork meat processing sector

Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) is a pathogenic bacterium responsible for Listeriosis. In France, the genetic diversity of Lm is known in the pig farming and finished pork meat products compartment only.…

Assessment of the sanitory impact of two transport practices not provided for by the Regulation (EC) 2017/1981

Commission Regulation (EC) 2017/1981 sets out the necessary conditions for the transportation of partially cooled carcasses (with core temperature between 7°C and 15°C), but it does not take into account…

Implementation of an approach for the fast detection of food-borne bacterial pathogens in the pig and pork chain through the creation of a Joint Technological Unit ACTIA “FASTYPERS”

The Actia Fastypers Joint Technological Unit (2022-2027) has been created to gain a deeper insight into adaptation of Salmonella spp and Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) enabling them to survive and…

Does infrared spectroscopy allow the identification of Yersinia enterocolitica BT4 strains of porcine origin responsible for human’s infection?

In 2021, yersiniosis was still, the third most frequently reported human zoonosis in Europe, (EFSA and ECDC, 2021) with Yersinia enterocolitica being the most common Yersinia species reported in human…

Monitoring of microbial ecology and Salmonella resistance in a pig slaughterhouse

Salmonella was responsible for 22,5% of reported outbreaks in EU in 2020. To guarantee food safety, a better understanding of microbial ecology and adaptation strategies on the food production chain…

Emploi d’alternatives ou de teneurs réduites en sel nitrité : quel impact sur le comportement de L. monocytogenes durant la conservation de jambon cuit ?

Listeria monocytogenes est particulièrement bien adaptée aux environnements industriels froids et humides, et constitue un danger majeur pour les produits réfrigérés prêts à consommer. Le nitrite contribue à la sécurité…
