In this study, Listeria spp. was isolated in 40 of the 100 products analyzed. Among the Listeria isolates, 8% correspond to L. monocytogenes, 15% to L. innocua, 6% to L. seeligeri, 10% to L. welshimeri, and 15 to L. grayi. L. ivanovii was not detected in any of the products analyzed. LISTEX™ P100 bacteriophage as antimicrobial compounds was incorporated into the sodium alginate based film for the first time. Bacteriophage in sodium alginate based film and direct bacteriophage applications in smoked trout were found to be effective in L. monocytogenes inactivation during storage. In addition, the preservation of phage stability of the two groups during storage indicates that in the smoked products can use in the control of L. monocytogenes.enListeria monocytogenesseafoodalginate filmArticle27044934992148-9297
