listeria
Part of speech: noun
Morphological type: simple
Etymology: From the genus name Listeria.
Inflected forms:
form: listeria
pos: noun
tags: plural
Senses:
gloss: Any rod-shaped, gram-positive bacterium, of the genus Listeria, especially those responsible for the bacterial infection listeriosis.
pos: noun
examples: One of the main reasons fridge temperatures are recommend to be set at 5ºC is because of listeria. Listeria is a food poisoning bacterium that is psychrotrophic – in other words it likes cold temperatures. From the growth models, we know that listeria grows nearly twice as fast at 8°C as it does at 5°C, hence the recommended 5ºC, which helps keep us safe from listeria.
Listeriosis is a foodborne disease caused by listeria bacteria.
