MOLECULAR DISCRIMINATION OF REGULATED AND NON-REGULATED SALMONELLA SEROTYPES

摘要

The present invention provides a set of oligonucleotides to screen for the presence of targeted Salmonella serotypes in an enrichment or to characterize presumptive colonies. The set of oligonucleotides includes at least one set of primers and probe for the detection of Salmonella serotype selected from Typhimurium, Enteritidis, Newport, Heidelberg, Infantis, Virchow and Hadar. The set of oligonucleotides may include up to 5 different primer sets and the corresponding probes.
