Meat Samples

A multiplex PCR method was developed for simultaneous detection of Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, and Escherichia coli O157:H7 in meat samples. DNA detection sensitivity for this method was 103 CFU/ml for each pathogen. When this protocol was used for the detection of each of the above pathogenic bacteria in spiked pork samples, 1 cell per 25 g of inoculated sample could be detected within 30 h. In the samples of naturally contaminated meat, Salmonella spp., L. monocytogenes, and E. coli O157:H7 were detected over the same time period. Excellent agreement was obtained for the results of multiplex PCR and the conventional culture method, which suggests that the multiplex PCR is a reliable and useful method for rapid screening of meat products for Salmonella spp., L. monocytogenes, and E. coli O157:H7 contamination.

Single Reaction

Rapid and sensitive detection techniques for foodborne pathogens are important to the food industry. However, traditional detection methods rely on bacterial culture in combination with biochemical tests, a process that typically takes 4 to 7 days to complete. Thus, this study was conducted to address the issue of time lag inherent in traditional methods by developing a novel PCR assay for each of five foodborne pathogenic bacteria. This new system consists of a simultaneous screening method using multiplex PCR in a single reaction tube for the rapid and sensitive detection of each of the five bacteria. Specific primers for multiplex PCR amplification of the Shiga-like toxin (verotoxin type II), femA (cytoplasmic protein), toxR (transmembrane DNA binding protein), iap (invasive associative protein), and invA (invasion protein A) genes were designed to allow simultaneous detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Salmonella, respectively. To confirm the specificity of each primer pair for the respective target gene, three types of experiments were carried out using boiled cell lysates and their DNAs. In the multiplex PCR with mixed DNA samples, specific bands for corresponding genes were simultaneously detected from a single reaction. The detection of all five foodborne pathogenic bacteria could be completed in less than 24 h with this novel PCR method.
