ER 1
1.Page 19 is titled Appendix. What is the intent here? 1. An appendix with data? 2. Appended data is not
to be published? 2. Figures: omit as they are repetitious. 3. Page 1, line 44: Replace "climates" with
"conditions". 4. Page 1, Line 44: Define "high pH" and provide reference. [CONTINUED] Is this an allusion
to resistance to alkaline sanitizers or to the high end of the pH 4.3-9.4 growth range of listeria? Page 1,
lines 40 & 42: Change "Listeriosis" to "listeriosis". Page 2, line 33: Insert "the reproducibility among
different laboratories of" between "compare" and "the". Page3, lines 24-26: Sentence is awkward -
restructure. Page 4, lines 3 and 4:Change "(12 high, 12 low and 12 controls for each method)" to "(12 high
inoculum, 12 low inoculum and 12 uninoculated controls for each method)". Page 5, line 12: "Appendix"?
See comment above. Page 14, lines 42-43: Provide website address. Page 18, Table 2014.1A: Readability
of the table could be enhanced by delineating the 4 subsections. For example, one could add blank lines
between the Candidate Presumptive, Candidate Confirmed, Positive Reference and dLPOD subsections.
Pages 21-22, Table 2014.2A: Suggest making this into 3 tables.
