Abstract
The aim of this multicenter study was to determine and to standardize methods in order to have common basis for comparing results of phage typing of Listeria monocytogenes. Using a common set of Listeria strains, a standardized method, including media, bacterial growth conditions, application of viruses and reading of lytic reactions, was established. 29 bacteriophages were selected according to their host range. This phage typing system allowed phagovar determination of 54% of the serogroup 1/2 strains and 77% of the serogroup 4 strains of L. monocytogenes.Entities:
