PRIMERS FOR THE AMPLIFICATION OF GENES CODING FOR THE ENTEROTOXIN AND THE LECITHINASE OF CLOSTRIDIUM PERFRINGENS AND THEIR APPLICATION TO THE DETECTION AND NUMERATION OF THESE BACTERIAE

摘要

The presence of lecithinase or enterotoxin genes or the presence of Clostridium perfringens bacteriae in a sample is determined by polymerase chain reaction using specific primers. The bacteriae are detected in particular in food samples or fecal samples.
