Article Synopsis
  • Campylobacter jejuni is a major cause of intestinal infections globally and is common in the EU, showing resistance to oxidative stress despite being microaerobic.
  • The study examined the oxidative stress resistance in 22 C. jejuni strains and tested adhesive and invasive properties of four selected strains on intestinal cells.
  • Results indicated that while all strains survived low levels of oxidative stress, only a few could tolerate higher concentrations, and increased oxidative stress correlated with greater bacterial adhesion to intestinal cells, linking stress resistance to virulence.

Listeria monocytogenes has been recognized as a human pathogen for decades and is known to be an important foodborne pathogen. There have been no documented foodborne L. monocytogenes illnesses due to the consumption of eggs or egg products, even though the bacterium has been isolated from faeces, body fluid, and oviducts of asymptomatic laying hens.

High pressure processing is a novel food preservation technology, applied for over 15 years in the food industry to inactivate spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms. Many studies have shown the differential resistance of bacterial cells to high pressure. Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterium able to grow at refrigerated temperature and to survive for a long time in minimally processed foods such as raw smoked fish.
