Food Control Available online 4 October 2018 Analysis of RASFF notifications on food products contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes reveals options for improvement in the rapid alert system for food and feed. 1. Introduction Globalisation of food trade opens the door for the spread of foodborne infectious diseases. In 2016, a total of 2536 human listeriosis cases were reported in the European Union (EU), corresponding to an incidence rate of 0.47 per 100,000 population (EFSA & ECDC, 2017). Although comparably rare (e. g. incidence rate for salmonellosis 21.2 per 100,000 population), listeriosis has the highest hospitalisation rate of all foodborne zoonoses under EU surveillance (EFSA & ECDC, 2017). Together with its high case fatality rate (16.2% in 2016), it is rightly considered a major EU-wide public health concern (EFSA & ECDC, 2017).
The most affected groups are elderly people, immunocompromised patients and pregnant women where the disease is often associated with severe clinical manifestations including septicaemia, meningitis and spontaneous abortion (Schlech & Acheson, 2000). The causative agent of listeriosis is Listeria monocytogenes (Lm). 2. Fig. 1. Fig. 2. Fig. 3. 3. 3.1. 3.2. Références EFSA et Parlement Européen concernant Listeria.
