  • Title: Isolation of bacteriophages from Listeria monocytogenes Serovar 5 and Listeria innocua.
    Author: Rocourt J, Schrettenbrunner A, Seeliger HP.
    Journal: Zentralbl Bakteriol Mikrobiol Hyg A Med Mikrobiol Infekt Parasitol; 1982 Apr; 251(4):505-11. PubMed ID: 6808789.
    Abstract:
    11 new bacteriophages, 3 from Listeria monocytogenes serovar 5 and 8 from Listeria innocua were isolated from lysogenic strains without induction. Phagovar determinations were carried out with these phages and 12 other isolated from L. monocytogenes serovars 1/2 and 4b. 76% of the 142 strains from different serovars tested gave a lytic pattern. The new phage set increased the percentage of determinable L. innocua strains to 61.7%. Different phage patterns underline the distinction between L. monocytogenes and L. innocua. L. monocytogenes serovar 5 is characterized by its great sensibility to many phages from lysogenic strains of various serovars.
