A study on the effects of some laboratory-derived genetic mutations on biofilm formation by Listeria monocytogenes

2009-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Biofilms formed by the human pathogen Listeria monocytogenes in food-processing environments can be a potential source of contamination. In this study, we investigated the ability of L. monocytogenes wild type and its laboratory-derived isogenic mutants in cwhA, prfA, agrA, flaA, degU, ami and sigB to adhere to and form biofilms on abiotic surfaces. The results suggest that inactivation of the two component regula...
