İHRACATA YÖNELİK ÜRETİLEN BAZI GIDALARDA LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES VARLIGININ ARAŞTIRILMASI

ÖZET Çalışma, Bursa'da ihracata yönelik üretilen çeşitli deniz ürünleri ve sebzelerde L. monocytogenes'in varlığını belirlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirildi. İncelenen 110 adet örneğin 20 (%18.2)'sinde Listeria türleri belirlendi. Listeria spp. 2 dondurulmuş salyangoz, 15 dondurulmuş biber, 2 dondurulmuş çilek ve 1 dondurulmuş Brüksel lahanasından izole edildi. Dondurulmuş biber örneklerinden alınan 15 Listeria izolatından 3'ü L. monocytogenes olarak identifiye edildi. Çalışmanın sonuçları, dondurulmuş biberlerin L. monocytogenes yönünden sağlık riski oluşturabileceğini ve dondurulmuş biber işleyen işletmelerin, L. monocytogenes'le olası bir kontaminasyonun kontrolü amacıyla, HACCP planlarında gerekli önlemleri almaları gerektiğini ortaya koymuştur. Anahtar Kelimeler: Listeria spp., Listeria monocytogenes, su ürünleri, sebzeler     INVESTIGATION ON THE PRESENCE OF LISTERIA MONOCYTOGENES IN SOME FOODS PRODUCED FOR EXPORTING ABSTRACT The study was carried out to determine the presence of L. monocytogenes in various seafoods and vegetables produced for exporting in Bursa (Turkey). Of 110 samples analyzed, 20 (18.2%) were found to be Listeria species. Listeria spp. were isolated from 2 frozen snail meats, 15 frozen peppers, 2 frozen strawberries and 1 frozen brussels cabbage. Among 15 Listeria isolates obtained from frozen peppers, three was identified as L. monocytogenes. The results of this study indicated that frozen peppers may have potentially health risk, and frozen pepper producers must take necessary precautions as indicated by HACCP principles to control possible contamination by L. monocytogenes. Key Words: Listeria spp., Listeria monocytogenes, seafood, vegetables
