Figure Lengend Snippet: Bacterial strains used in this study

Article Snippet: All strains, independently of their clinical source, proved to be capable of penetrating and surviving within Caco-2 cells, exhibiting intracellular counts similar to those of invasive, nonhemolytic L. monocytogenes strain ATCC 43248, which enters the cells but is unable to multiply intracellularly.

Techniques: Plasmid Preparation, Infection, Conjugation Assay
