Abstract
Concentration of the inoculum in L-Palcamy broth enrichment had a marked influence on the recovery of Listeria from meat samples. A 1/100 dilution of ground meat yielded twice as many positive samples as the usually recommended tenfold dilution, whereas no such effect was observed with cheese or vegetables.
