Listeria monocytogenes, the most commonly isolated pathogenic member, is associated with a wide spectrum of human and animal diseases.
In the smear from the original tissue, L.
monocytogenes may appear as gram-positive coccobacilli that may be confused with Streptococcus agalactiae (group B), enterococci, or Corynebacterium spp.
Listeria is differentiated from streptococci by a positive catalase test.
L.
monocytogenes is the only species of the genus Listeria that has been clearly documented as a pathogen for humans.
The forms of disease caused by this organism are myriad and age-related.
The most common clinical manifestations are meningitis and septicemia.
Listeria monocytogenes, a food-borne intracellular animal and human pathogen, interacts with infected host cells both prior to entry and during the intracellular phase of infection.
