Susceptibility and resistance of anaerobic rumen fungi to antimicrobial feed additives

Listeria monocytogenes survived in meat, cheese and egg ravioli stored at 5°C for 14 d. Ravioli were considered edible for the first 9 d of storage. Initial L. monocytogenes populations of 3 × 10⁵ cfu/g of ravioli were reduced to non-detectable levels after heat treatment simulating that which would be used by the consumer.
