Abstract

Listeriosis is a disease in humans and an animal caused by Listeria monocytogenes and is one of the most important emerging bacterial zoonotic diseases worldwide. Among the Listeria species, Listeria monocytogenes causes listeriosis in humans and animals and has the highest case fatality rate among foodborne diseases. It is one of the major microorganisms responsible for food-borne illness. The main sources of infection are reservoir hosts, contaminated food of animal origin, dairy products, fish and fish products, vegetables and the environment. The immunocompromised people, elderly, newborns and pregnant women are the most susceptible groups to listeriosis. Listeria monocytogenes could be a gram-positive, rod-shaped, facultatively anaerobic, non-spore-forming, microscopic bacterium with a low G+C concentration. It can withstand and tolerate a wide range of pH, temperature, and salt. Consumption of contaminated food and ready-to-eat foods is the chief source of infection for humans. Listeria is identified in suspected samples using isolation and identification, biochemical, serological, and molecular methods. Studies show that L. monocytogenes becomes resistant to some types of antibiotic therapy. The effects of listeriosis on social health and economic importance have been not well documented in our country. As a result, this review's objective is to inform the public about the importance of the diseases, a diagnostic tool, and a summary of the data on food-borne listeriosis in meals containing animal products. Good cleanliness and secure handling during manufacturing, distribution, storage, and transport are necessary for preventive actions against diseases.
