Augmented Diagnostics with Pathogen Mapping for Better Understanding  of Listeria monocytogenes contaminations in the salmon production.

A ready-to-eat salmon producer was experiencing recurring contamination with Listeria monocytogenes, a common pathogen in salmon products. Testing for this contaminant is especially important in smoked salmon, as it is a ready-to-eat food and susceptible to contamination risks.

While Listeria contamination is generally manageable, the persistence of a single strain over time can pose a significant issue. Recognizing this, the company sought to gain a deeper understanding of the sources of contamination and the microbiome associated with their products.

bioMérieux performed Pathogen Mapping, a Whole Genome Sequencing solution (WGS) for strain typing and better understanding of pathogen contaminations.
