[The occurrence of Listeria in the production of processed meat, salami and mettwurst].
In six Swiss meat-processing plants 206 samples of cured and air-dried beef (Bündnerfleisch), salami and Mettwurst were analyzed for the presence of Listeria spp. Samples were taken during the fabrication, fermentation and drying of the products. Out of 44.7% of all samples Listeria spp. could be detected. 6.8% turned out to be L. monocytogenes, 37.4% L. innocua and 0.5% L. seeligeri. Listeria spp. were found in all production stages of the tested foods. The concentration of L. monocytogenes was always less than or equal to 20 MPN/g. 86% of the isolated strains formed part of the serogroup 1/2 and 14% of the serogroup 4. Listeria spp. could only be found on the surface of Bündnerfleisch. Both, L. monocytogenes and L. innocua were able to survive the maturation process of salami, even when the initial concentration was very low. The ripening was more often survived by L. innocua than by L. monocytogenes. It appeared that Mettwurst had the highest contamination rate of Listeria spp. (94.4%), followed by salami (46.7%) and Bündnerfleisch (23.1%). The corresponding proportions for L. monocytogenes were 8.0% (salami), 5.8% (Bündnerfleisch) and 0% (Mettwurst). Listeria spp. positive samples were found in every examined plant, L. monocytogenes in five of therm. The Listeria spp. contamination rates moved from 10.0% to 86.2%, those of L. monocytogenes from 0% to 12.1%.
