  • Abstract
    The incidence of Salmonella spp., Listeria spp. and Listeria monocytogenes in horsemeat for human consumption was investigated. One-hundred and twenty-one samples of frozen horsemeat collected from two Brazilian abattoirs were analysed over a period of 1 year. Twenty-two samples (18.2%) were positive for Listeria spp. with nine (7.4%) containing L. monocytogenes. None of the samples harbored Salmonella spp.
