Multiplex PCR primers that can amplify the cdt genes of C. jejuni, C. coli, and C. fetus in a bacterial species-specific manner were prepared. Multiplex PCR with the primers was assessed using Campylobacter bacteria, other cdt gene-positive bacteria, and representative bacteria responsible for enteric infection. As a result, the present inventors' multiplex PCR using cdtB amplification primers was proven to enable simultaneous detection of different Campylobacter bacteria with high specificity. The methods of the present invention can identify Campylobacter at the bacterial species level in a single manipulation even when domestic animals or humans are infected with different bacterial species of Campylobacter.
