hot dog sausages, Listeria monocytogenes, good manufacturing practices, hazard analysys and critical control pointAbstract
Three hundred and ninety four hot dog samples obtained from retail markets (groceries stores)
in the city of São Paulo/Brazil were investigated for the presence of Listeria monocytogenes
and for the respective serovars of the isolated strains. A total of 56 strains of L.
monocytogenes were found. Serovars 1/2a and 1/2c were each identified in 41.2% of the
samples (14/34) and the serovar 4b was found in 17.6% (6/34). It was concluded that Listeria
monocytogenes occur in hot dogs sold at these markets in the city of São Paulo; it was
predominating in the hot dogs samples serovars: 1/2a (41.2%) and serovar 1/2c (41.2%),
followed by serovar 4b (17.6%); the serovars isolated from hot dog samples were the same
ones associated to outbreaks and sporadic cases including serovar 4b, even though it showed a
lower percentage against the others serovars detected; it must be considered as routine
practices the monitoring of the thermal treatment during the cooking process of hot dogs, the
evaluation of the occurrence level of L.monocytogenes on bench surfaces and equipment used
during post-thermal treatments, it must be realized the re-pasteurization after packaging; it is
very important to implement the Good Manufacturing Practices – GMP and the Hazard
Analysis and Critical Control Point – HACCP in the food industries, restaurants and any food
production areas.
