The type strain(s) of Listeria monocytogenes: a source of continuing difficulties.

International journal of systematic bacteriology - 1 Apr 1991

Kathariou S, Pine L

Abstract excerpt

The type strain of Listeria monocytogenes differs from wild-type L. monocytogenes strains in more characteristics than just the previously reported deficiency in hemolytic activity and virulence in the murine infection model. The type strain from the American Type Culture Collection (strain ATCC 15313) produces lecithinase, is hemolytic on rabbit (but not sheep) blood agar, lacks motility, and shows limited...
