Abstract
This unit describes general procedures for the lab cultivation and storage of the Gram-positive facultative intracellular bacterium Listeria monocytogenes. The basic protocols are relevant for a wide scope of applications including microbial genetics and both in vitro and in vivo infection studies. Commonly used L. monocytogenes strains, serotypes, and growth parameters are also discussed.Entities:
