Lead Food Lab Scientist Skip Gossack holds up a petri dish with the visible Listeria colonies from the Holly cantaloupe. The Colorado Departement of Public Health and Environment state lab in Denver confirmed the direct link between the human cases of the earlier Listeria outbreak in cantaloupes from Jensen Farms in Holly. The lab is the place for the state where accurate and rapid laboratory test results to a variety of complex outbreaks occurring in the environment and in humans are confirmed to protect public health.
