| Abstract | Listeria monocytogenes was absent in all the 361 samples of frozen shrimps taken from the export trade. The organism survives freezing and further storage at -18°C for over two years. In water L. monocytogenes survives 10-30 days at room temperature (28-30°C) and 70-110 days at refrigerated temperature (5-1O°C) depending upon the initial load in the water sample. The process water in seafood processing factories should be chlorinated to a residual level of 10 ppm. to get full protection against L. monocytogenes. |
