Longitudinal Study of Listeria monocytogenes Prevalence and Persistence in Retail Delis
Haley F. Oliver, PhDPurdue University

Interagency Risk Assessment - L. monocytogenes in Retail Delicatessens Public Meeting
Washington, DC - May 22nd, 2013
Four-Phase Longitudinal StudyHypotheses
• L. monocytogenes persists on food and non-food contact surfaces in retail delis
• Cross-contamination occurs between non-food contact surfaces and food contact surfaces
2May 22nd, 2013Interagency Risk Assessment--Listeria monocytogenes in Retail Delicatessens Public Meeting
Four Phase Longitudinal Study - Overview
• Phase 1: Monthly sampling (prior to operation) for LM and Listeria species in 15 stores (5 stores/state) for 3 months
– Also included APC and ATP testing
• Phase 2: Monthly sampling (during operation) for LM and Listeria species in 30 stores (10 stores/state) for 6 months
• Phase 3: Develop interventions to be implemented in stores (based on phase 1 and 2 results)
• Phase 4: Repeat phase 2 with interventions in place
Initiated under FSIS/Office of Public Health Science
3May 22nd, 2013Interagency Risk Assessment--Listeria monocytogenes in Retail Delicatessens Public Meeting
Results of pre-op sampling (Phase 1)
• 21/315 samples positive for L. monocytogenes (6.7%)– 2/315 samples positive for non-LM Listeria spp. (0.63%)
• Quantification data indicate that drains and floors can have >104 L. monocytogenes/sponge

30 retail stores – subtyping conclusions
10
• 12/30 stores show low LM prevalence (≤4 positive samples; <2% prevalence)
• 4/30 stores show low LM prevalence with a single high prevalence contamination event
• 14/30 stores show evidence for persistence (preliminary sub-classification)• 9 stores show clear evidence for persistence on “non-
FCS” area with occasional FCS contamination with persistent type
• 2 stores show clear evidence for persistence on non FCS area; persistent strain not isolated from FCS
• 3 stores show possible short term persistence (same subtype isolated in 2 or 3 different months with ≤ 8 total positive samples), two on FCS, one on non-FCS.

Quantitative data
18
Occasional high numbers on non-food contact surfaces
• Floor next to deli drain• Pre-op: 4x104, 3x102, and 2.5x105/sponge
(total of 3 stores)• During operation: <10; 1x105/sponge (2
stores)• Cold room floor or drain
• During operation: 5x106, 1x106, 3x101/sponge (3 stores)
May 22nd, 2013Interagency Risk Assessment--Listeria monocytogenes in Retail Delicatessens Public Meeting
L. monocytogenes and Listeria spp. testing
19
Among a total of 4,512 samples:• 3,980 (88.2%) samples negative for both LM and Listeria
spp.• 291 (6.4%) samples positive for LM only• 133 (2.9%) samples positive for LM and Listeria spp.• 108 (2.4%) samples positive for Listeria spp. Only
Data indicate that L. monocytogenes testing will facilitate focus on actual food safety hazard
• Some stores show presence of indictor, but not the pathogen
May 22nd, 2013Interagency Risk Assessment--Listeria monocytogenes in Retail Delicatessens Public Meeting
Summary and conclusions• L. monocytogenes contamination in retail
environments non-food contact surfaces is not uncommon– L. monocytogenes is common in surrounding environments– L. monocytogenes contamination of FCS is considerably
less than contamination of non-FCS– Wide variation in L. monocytogenes prevalence among
stores• L. monocytogenes persist widely in retail
environments (>35%)– Need to control niches
• Focus on L. monocytogenes testing rather than Listeria spp. testing is warranted at retail
