Health hazardous Listeria monocytogenes detected in salmon ham - Product recall

Listeria monocytogenes was detected in a meat product. The finding leads to a recall of the food.

Listeria are widespread in the environment and can be found on plants, in sewage systems, as well as in the feces of healthy and sick animals. They are commonly found in raw foods (e.g., meat, poultry, milk, vegetables, fish, and seafood) and are also significant in processed foods (e.g., meat products, smoked fish products, mixed salads).

These bacteria can cause very severe illnesses, especially in pregnant women, infants, the elderly, and sick people. The proportion of fatalities occurring among these individuals is relatively high.

At the BAV Institute, we regularly conduct tests for Listeria. We provide you with fast and reliable results and are happy to advise you on any concerns regarding product safety. If you have any questions, our customer consultants are at your disposal.
