Abstract
Editorial on: Bacterial pathogens in the non-clinical environment.
Highlights
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Microbial Physiology and Metabolism, a section of the journal Frontiers in Microbiology
A collection of articles is presented that covers some of the strategies and factors that influence the survival and growth of bacterial pathogens in the non-clinical environment (NCE), and affects transmission to humans, and outbreaks
Leong et al (2014) studied the presence of Listeria monocytogenes in several processing plants in Ireland and on the food produced by those plants
Summary
Specialty section: This article was submitted to Microbial Physiology and Metabolism, a section of the journal Frontiers in Microbiology. Bacterial pathogens must be able to resist environmental stresses and perhaps grow in order to get to another hosts. A collection of articles is presented that covers some of the strategies and factors that influence the survival and growth of bacterial pathogens in the NCE, and affects transmission to humans, and outbreaks. Bacterial pathogens will require adapting their genome to persist and grow in the NCE.
