Virulence and Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Listeria monocytogenes Strains Isolated From Ready-to-Eat Foods in Chile

Listeria monocytogenes is causing listeriosis, a rare but severe foodborne infection. Listeriosis affects pregnant women, newborns, older adults, and immunocompromised individuals. Ready-to-eat (RTE) foods are the most common sources of transmission of the pathogen This study explored the virulence...
