Abstract
In this study, a total of 30 Turkish style dry sausage (sucuk) was col lected from local meat product retailers, and these samples were inves tigated for the occurence of Listeria monocytogenes and other Listeria spp. While a total of 7 samples (23.3 %) was Listeria-positive, only 5 (16.7 %) of those samples contained L. monocytogenes, 7 samples (23. 3 %) L. innocua, and one (3.3 %) L. seeligeri. When the samples contai ning Listeria were quantitatively analyzed, the number of Listeria was very low.
