Fig. 9: Experimental design for the transfer of L. monocytogenes from biofilms to cold-smoked salmon.

Twenty replicates of single-species (L96, L107 and L168) and multi-species (F96, F107 and F168) biofilms were cultured and subsequently used for cell transfer to cold-smoked salmon. For each biofilm, 25 consecutive contacts were made to salmon fillets. L. monocytogenes loads on the salmon were quantified and reported as CFU/g. This image was created with BioRender.com.
