Detection of Salmonella in food samples by the combination of immunomagnetic separation and PCR assay.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A combination of immunomagnetic separation and polymerase chain reaction (IMS-PCR) was used to detect Salmonella in food samples. Pre-enrichment of samples was combined with filtration through a membrane for the removal of food debris. The IMS-PCR assay combines selective extraction of bacteria by specific antibodies with primer specific PCR amplification that enables to detect Salmonella in non-fatty food samples in 24 h. In comparison with conventional cultural methods, the IMS-PCR is a rapid and specific method. Combined with filtration bags, it partially reduces the negative effects of the food matrix and allows the quick detection of Salmonella cells. The shortened protocols for Salmonella spp. detection described here can improve considerably current methodologies.

To identify the reservoirs of shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O157, sensitive detection andisolation methods are necessary. The sensitivity of traditional culture methods can be improved significantlyby the inclusion of an immunoconcentration step, resulting in less false-negative results. In this study,enrichment procedure and immunomagnetic separation (IMS) were compared for use in con...

Three different stool sample-processing methods (centrifugation, immunomagnetic separation, and selective enrichment cultivation) for the identification of Salmonella serogroups by PCR were studied. The corresponding sensitivities in an ethidium bromide stained-agarose gel were 10(5), 10(3), and 10 bacteria, respectively. The PCR assay with overnight enrichment performed as well as, or even bet...

Salmonella is the second-leading cause of food-borne illness in most developed countries, causing diarrhea, cramps, vomiting, and often fever. Many rapid methods are available for detection of Salmonella in foods, but these methods are often insensitive or expensive or require a high degree of technical ability to perform. In this paper we describe development and characterization of a novel as...
