Potential Impact of the Resistance to Quaternary Ammonium Disinfectants on the Persistence of Listeria monocytogenes in Food Processing Environments.

Frontiers in microbiology

Martínez-Suárez JV, Ortiz S, López-Alonso V.
PMID: 27199964
Front Microbiol. 2016 May 02;7:638. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2016.00638. eCollection 2016.

The persistence of certain strains of Listeria monocytogenes, even after the food processing environment has been cleaned and disinfected, suggests that this may be related to phenomena that reduce the concentration of the disinfectants to subinhibitory levels. This includes...
