单核细胞增生李斯特菌通常存在于零售熟食店环境中。必须使用适当类型和浓度的消毒剂，以消除表面上的这种病原体，并降低消费者的感染风险。2012年，疾病控制和预防中心的环境卫生专家网络完成了一项关于零售熟食店实践的研究，该研究有助于防止交叉污染和L。单核细胞增多症本研究的重点是熟食店使用的消毒液，鉴于其重要性，清洁和减少零售食品环境中的病原体污染。我们确定了熟食店，经理和工人的特点与使用浓度不当的消毒液擦拭食品接触表面; 22.8%的消毒液用于擦拭食品接触表面的浓度不当。独立熟食店更有可能使用浓度不当的消毒液，每周销售较少的chubs（塑料管肉）的熟食店也是如此。使用不适当的消毒溶液浓度与管理人员所需的食品安全培训有关;其他分析表明，这种关系对于独立的熟食店而不是连锁熟食店是重要的。在食品安全工作中，必须强调清洁和消毒，重点是独立和较小的熟食店。
Listeria monocytogenes is commonly found in retail delicatessen environments. Proper types and concentrations of sanitizers must be used to eliminate this pathogen from surfaces and reduce the consumer’s risk for infection. In 2012, the Environmental Health Specialists Network of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention completed a study on practices in retail delis that can help prevent cross-contamination and growth of L. monocytogenes. The present study focuses on the sanitizing solution used in delis, given its importance to cleaning and reducing pathogen contamination in retail food environments. We identified deli, manager, and worker characteristics associated with use of improper concentrations of sanitizing solution to wipe down food contact surfaces; 22.8% of sanitizing solutions used for wiping food contact surfaces were at improper concentrations. Independent delis were more likely to use improper concentrations of sanitizing solution, as were delis that sold fewer chubs (plastic tubes of meat) per week. Use of improper sanitizing solution concentrations was associated with required food safety training for managers; additional analyses suggest that this relationship is significant for independent but not chain delis. Cleaning and sanitizing must be emphasized in food safety efforts focused on independent and smaller delis.
