Cross-Genera Amplification of <i>prs/hlyA</i> by Multiplex PCR Resulted in Misidentification of <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> as <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i>

2026-01-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Importance</h4> Molecular confirmation of Listeria monocytogenes typically employs a multiplex PCR method that targets both genus-specific prs and species-specific hlyA genes. This study assessed the specificity of this assay within Nigeria, where local microbial diversity may influence performance outcomes. <h4>Methods</h4> Out of eight phenotypically presumptive L. monocytogenes food...
