Morphological changes in Listeria monocytogenes subjected to sublethal alkaline stress.

International journal of food microbiology - 15 Dec 2007

Giotis Efstathios S, Blair Ian S, McDowell David A

Abstract excerpt

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies revealed that exposure to 4lethal alkaline stress induced statistically significant (P<0.05) changes in mean cell length, radius and volume in Listeria monocytogenes and a derived sigma(B) deficient mutant. Bacterial morphology was altered at pH values above 9.0, to include single filamentous or elongated chain forms. Such filamentation and chain formation was observed...
