Development of a Competitive Index Assay To Evaluate the Virulence of Listeria monocytogenes actA Mutants during Primary and Secondary Infection of Mice

We developed a competitive index assay for murine listeriosis that tests the virulence of Listeria monocytogenes strains in different organs and at various times postinoculation. Studies presented here demonstrate the reproducibility of this assay during primary and secondary infection of inbred and...
