recommends evaluation of the method including enrichment medium, in the user’s

Conclusion
6
7
The 3M MDA 2 -
Listeria
AOAC PTM validation study included inclusivity/exclusivity, lot-to-
8
lot/stability, robustness and matrix studies. The 3M MDA 2 -
Listeria
was compared to the
9
USDA/FSIS-MLG 8.09, the FDA-BAM Chapter 10, the AOAC 993.12 or the ISO 11290-1/A1
10
reference methods for the detection of
Listeria
. There were no significant differences between
11
the 3M MDA 2 -
Listeria
method and the corresponding reference method for any of the
12
matrixes evaluated. The 3M MDA 2 -
Listeria
demonstrated reliability as a rapid and sensitive
13
method for the detection of
Listeria
species for the following new matrixes: beef hot dogs (25 g),
14
deli turkey (125 g), queso fresco (25 g), vanilla ice cream (25 g), 4% milk fat cottage cheese (25
15
g), whole melon, bagged raw spinach (25 g), cold smoked salmon (25 g), raw chicken (25 g),
16
sealed concrete (sponge enriched in 225 mL), plastic (Enviroswab enriched in 10 mL), stainless
17
steel (sponge enriched in 225 mL).
