The most recent outbreaks of listeriosis have been traced back to contaminated ready-to-eat (RTE) poultry and meat products. However, Listeria monocytogenes can be isolated from every food group, including fresh vegetables. This review is focused on one of the most popular RTE vegetable products, precut prepackaged lettuce. The available literature concerning Listeria contamination of vegetables is reviewed, and possible reasons why no recent outbreaks or sporadic cases of listeriosis due to contaminated precut prepackaged lettuce are explored.
最近的李斯特菌病疫情已追溯到受污染的即食(RTE)家禽和肉类产品。然而,单核细胞增生李斯特菌可从包括新鲜蔬菜在内的各类食物中分离出来。本综述聚焦于最受欢迎的即食蔬菜产品之一,预切包装生菜。本文回顾了有关蔬菜受李斯特菌污染的现有文献,并探讨了为何近期没有因受污染的预切包装生菜导致的李斯特菌病疫情或散发病例的可能原因。
