Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
BSI | 2017 | 38 |
This document specifies a horizontal method for
-
the enumeration of L. monocytogenes, and
-
the enumeration of Listeria spp. (including L. monocytogenes).
This document is applicable to
-
products intended for human consumption and for the feeding of animals, and
-
environmental samples in the area of food production and food handling.
It is possible that certain additionally described Listeria species may not be enumerated or confirmed by this method.[3],[6],[9],[11]
