Abstract
Skalka, B.! Bactericidal and Bacteriolytic ActiTJity of Listeria. Acta vet. Bmo, 61, 1992: 23-28. Sirains of all known species of the genus Listeria exerted bactericidal and bacterioly tic effects on Micrococcus luteus and bacteriolytic effects on Micrococcus lylae. The bactericidal effect was tested on living cells and the bacteriolytic effect on heat-killed cells of micrococ:cal strains. The sample of 141 listeria strains examined compri sed 80 L. monocytogenes strains, 10 L. ifJantJfJii strains, 45 L. innocua strains, 2 strains each of L. seeligeri and L. gray; and 1 strain each of L. welshimeri and L. murray;. No effect was observed on the other micrococcal species, namely M. roseus, M. kristinae, M. sedentarius, M. TJarians and M. nishinomiyaensis. The bactericidal and bacte riolytic activity observed iIi the study can be included in the characteristic pro perties of the genus Listeria.
