Abstract
The efficacy of eight commercialized disinfectants proposed by several manufacturers was evaluated using the French standard in the presence of organic matter and against Listeria monocytogenes and L. innocua s trains isolated in a dairy plant, against other Listeria strains of va rious origin and reference strains of Staphylococcus aureus and Entero coccus faecium. Products containing quaternary ammonium plus peroxide or amine were shown to be efficient at the concentrations recommended by the manufacturer. Differences in sensitivities were noticed for one disinfectant containing chlorine.
