Article Figures & Data
Figures
- FIG. 1.
(a) Growth curves of L. monocytogenes individual strains on PALCAM agar at 5°C (i), 10°C (ii), 15°C (iii), and 20°C (iv). Growth curves of L. monocytogenes cocktail strains (b) and LAB (c) on MRS agar over time at the four different temperatures studied, (5, 10, 15, and 20°C). Arrows indicate the end of storage at each temperature.
- FIG. 2.
Dendrogram demonstrating cocktail strains of L. monocytogenes at four different temperatures. Fragments were generated using PFGE after digestion with ApaI. Initial, middle, and final stages of storage and appropriate temperatures are shown. Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of isolates.
- FIG. 3.
Distribution of isolates recovered from the cocktail in relation to temperature and to the PFGE profiles (PF).
