Solar irradiance limits the long ‐term survival of Listeria monocytogenes in seawater
In this study we investigated the possibility that this pathogen could survive in seawater for an extended time period. Freshly collected seawater samples were inoculated with 1 × 108 CFU per ml of L. monocytogenes EGD‐e and survival was monitored by plate counting for up to 25 days. When incubated in the dark, either at ambient temperatures (4–14°C) or at 16°C, >104 CFU per ml survivors were present after 25 days. However, when the seawater cell suspensions were exposed to ambient light (solar irradiation) and temperatures, L. monocytogenes lost viability rapidly and no survivors could be detected after th...

Impact of carbohydrates on autoinducer ‐2 secretion of Bifidobacterium longum subsp. longum BBMN68
This study provides the advanced evidence that certain carbohydrates promote the secretion of AI‐2, and that this occurs at the single cell level and is therefore unaffected by cell density. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. (Source: Letters in Applied Microbiology)
