abstract
Over the last years, concerns regarding the effect of a healthy diet on one’s quality of life have promoted the
increase of vegetable consumption. However, these products can be contaminated by pathogens such as
Escherichia coli , Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes. Thus, this work aims to summarise the incidence
of foodborne pathogens in vegetables sold at European retail stores.
