This document specifies a horizontal method for

  • the detection of L. monocytogenes, and

  • the detection of Listeria spp. (including L. monocytogenes).

This document is applicable to

  • products intended for human consumption and for the feeding of animals, and

  • environmental samples in the area of food production and food handling.

It is possible that certain additionally described Listeria species may not be detected or confirmed by this method.[5],[10],[12],[14],[25],[26],[27]
