title: [Listeriosis as an infection of food origin].
abstract: After analysing the etiopathogenesis and transmission process of the microorganism, the Authors have examined the latest and documented outbreaks owing to food-borne strains of Listeria monocytogenes in Europe and in North America. The considered studies indicate an increase of listeriosis cases caused by infected food, especially food of animal origin, such as meat and milk-dairy products.
