Summary

THE ABILITY OF LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES TO SURVIVE THE CHEDDAR CHEESEMAKING PROCESS AND PERSIST DURING RIPENING OF CHEESE WAS EXAMINED. CHEESE WAS RIPENED AT 279 OR 286 K (6 OR 13 DEG C). DURING MANUFACTURE, LISTERIA COUNTS REMAINED RELATIVELY CONSTANT AT ABOUT 500/MILLIL OF MILK. AFTER PRESSING THE CURD OVERNIGHT, NUMBERS OF L. MONOCYTOGENES INCREASED TO ABOUT 1,000/G. GENERALLY, GREATEST NUMBERS OF LISTERIA, ABOUT 5,000 CELLS/G, WERE DETECTED IN CHEESE AFTER 14 DAYS OF RIPENING.
