Summary

Spanish translation of an article published in the IIR Bulletin 98-4, ref. 98-2322. Listeria monocytogenes is a pathogenic bacteria that can cause a serious disease known as "listeriosis". Until the early 1980s it was believed that listeriosis in man was contracted from contact with infected animals. However, during the 1980s several foodborne outbreaks of listeriosis were reported. It is now recognised, in the food safety context, that the presence and growth of L. monocytogenes must be taken into consideration during the production, storage and distribution of foods. The occurrence of L. monocytogenes is an international problem.
