Abstract
The fate of Listeria monocytogenes on green leafy vegetables (broad-le aved endive, curly-leaved endive, butterhead lettuce and lamb's lettuc e) was studied. Populations oft. monocytogenes increased by 1.5 log in 7 d at 10 degrees C on broad-leaved endives and butterhead lettuce, b y 0.5 log on curly-leaved endives and decreased by 1 log on lamb's let tuce. Growth patterns of the epiphytic microflora were similar among t he four salad types.
