Abstract excerpt
The objective of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that the dose-response relationship for Listeria monocytogenes in humans varies with genotypic lineage or subtype. The linkages between molecular subtyping data and enumeration data for L. monocytogenes subtypes in foods consumed by the at-risk population were examined to test this hypothesis. We applied a conditional probability model to conduct a...
