Detection of Salmonella enterica in food on the next day after the sample collection using 5 nuclease polymerase chain reaction with end-point fluorimetry

A method for the detection of Salmonella enterica in food on the next day after the sample collection is presented. The method consists of a two-step enrichment, bacterial cells lysis and a closed-tube duplex 5 nuclease PCR with an internal amplification control, which is read in an end-point mode i...

Summary:A method for the detection of Salmonella enterica in food on the next day after the sample collection is presented. The method consists of a two-step enrichment, bacterial cells lysis and a closed-tube duplex 5 nuclease PCR with an internal amplification control, which is read in an end-point mode in a 96-well fluorimeter. The 5-nuclease PCR has an intrinsic detection limit of 10E4 CFU/ml and facilitates monitoring of false negative results caused by the failure of amplification. The complete method for the detection of S. enterica in food has a detection limit of 100 CFU/25 g and does not produce false positive results in case of the presence of dead cells.
