Zusammenfassung:is a deadly intracellular pathogen mostly associated with consumption of ready-to-eat foods. This study investigated the effectiveness of total beef fat (BF-T) from flaxseed-fed cattle and its fractions enriched with monounsaturated fatty acids (BF-MUFA) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (BF-PUFA), along with commercially available long-chain fatty acids (LC-FA), as natural antimicrobials against BF-T was ineffective at concentrations up to 6 mg/ml, while was susceptible to BF-MUFA and BF-PUFA, with MICs at pH 7 of 0.33 ± 0.21 mg/ml and 0.06 ± 0.03 mg/ml, respectively. The MIC of C14:0 was significantly lower than those of C16:0 and C18:0 ( 0.05). Fatty acids 9-C16:1, C18:2n-6, and C18:3n-3 showed stronger inhibitory activity than 9-C18:1 and conjugated C18:2, with MICs of
