A Quantitative Risk Assessment Model for <i>Listeria monocytogenes</i> in Non-Ready-to-Eat Frozen Vegetables by Ursula Gonzales-Barron, Régis Pouillot, Juliana De Oliveira Mota, Akio Hasegawa, Ana Allende, Qingli Dong, Matthew J. Stasiewicz, Jovana Kovacevic, Vasco Cadavez, Laurent Guillier, Moez Sanaa

“…In a reference scenario, the model estimated that 9.4% of 500 g packages of frozen vegetables would be contaminated, although at mean levels lower than 10 CFU/g, and assuming that 20% of the portions of frozen vegetables would be left to thaw at room temperature for 2 h, the lot-level mean risk of listeriosis in the susceptible population would be 2.935 × 10⁻¹⁴ (median 5.446 × 10⁻¹⁵) for uncooked 50 g servings and 2.765 × 10⁻¹⁷ (median 5.184 × 10⁻¹⁸) for cooked 50 g servings. Analysis of selected scenarios suggested that not cooking the non-RTE product contributes to the risk to a greater extent than the level of contamination in the incoming raw vegetables, the latter in turn being more influential than the level of contamination in the processing environment. …”
