Compare of Selectivity Enrichment Broth for Detectable Effect of Listeria monocytogenes

Abstract:

This paper investigated contamination situation of Listeria monocytogenes(Lm). To compare different selectivity enrichment broth for detectable effect of Lm and compare detectable effect in different samples by using different methods, furthermore, choose the best enrichment broth for specific food. One hundred and thirty five random samples from raw meat, aquatic product, fruit and vegetable, quick-frozen food in Baoding. Applied LB enrichment broth, EB enrichment broth, new modification FDA enrichment broth and Fraser enrichment broth before separated by PALCAM selective agar, then identified by international standard method after PCR. Results: Four methods showed that there were 23 Lm positive, detected 5 Lm by LB method, 6 Lm by Fraser method, 5 Lm by EB method and 7 Lm by new modification FDA method. The total detectable rate of four methods had no large specificity, but to specific kind of food was different.
