Book The Development and Optimization of a RT PCR Assay for Rapid Campylobacter Spp  Detection and Quantification in Poultry Rinsates

Download or read book The Development and Optimization of a RT PCR Assay for Rapid Campylobacter Spp Detection and Quantification in Poultry Rinsates written by Aaron Bodie and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Campylobacter is a foodborne pathogen mainly associated with poultry products. Currently, prevalence-based data is used to determine process control during poultry processing. However, this method is not sensitive enough, labor intensive and does not provide information on the level and subsequent risk of Campylobacter contamination. As a result, reliable alternative methods are imperative to detect and quantify Campylobacter contamination throughout the harvest process. Therefore, the goal of this dissertation was to develop and optimize a real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for rapid detection and quantification of Campylobacter spp. in poultry rinsates using the United States Department of Agriculture - Food Safety Inspection Services protocol and sampling techniques. The first project was focused on identifying the compositional diversity of pooled colonies enumerated from post-chill poultry carcass samples inoculated with Campylobacter jejuni, coli, and lari on various selective and non-selective media, Campy-Cefex, mCCDA, and TSA; (Chapter 2). The objective of the second study was to generate growth curves for Campylobacter jejuni, coli, and lari under the same growth conditions recommended by the International standard organization (Chapter 3). The last chapter aimed to develop and verify a rapid quantification method for Campylobacter species (CampyQuant[TM]) in post-chill poultry rinsates using the BAX® System Real-Time PCR Assay for Campylobacter (Chapter 4). The results of this dissertation were that BAX® System CampyQuant[TM] assay was able to detect Campylobacter jejuni, coli, and lari after 20 h enrichment and quantify the pre-enrichment concentration in a range from 1.00 to 4.00 Log10 CFU/mL. The study suggests that the CampyQuant[TM] BAX® RT-PCR assay can provide the food industry with a rapid, accurate, and efficient alternative method for Campylobacter spp. enumeration to ensure that process controls are working adequately to provide safe products to consumers.

Book Specific Detection of Campylobacter Jejuni and Campylobacter Coli by Using Polymerase Chain Reaction

Download or read book Specific Detection of Campylobacter Jejuni and Campylobacter Coli by Using Polymerase Chain Reaction written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Development of a routine detection assay for Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli in clinical specimens was undertaken by using the polymerase chain reaction(PCR). An oligonucleotide primer pair from a conserved 5' region of the flaA gene of C. coli VC167 was used to amplify a 450-bp region by PCR. The primer pair specifically detected 4 strains of C.coli and 47 strains C. jejuni; but it did not detect strains of Campylobacter fetus, Campylobacter lari, Campylobacter upsaliensis, Campylobacter cryaerophila, Campylobacter butzleri, Campylobacter hyointestinalis, Wolinella recta, Helicobacter pylori, Escherichia coli, Shigella spp., Salmonella spp., Bibrio cholerae, Citrobacter freundii, or Aeromonas spp. By using a non radioactively labeled probe internal to the PCR product, the assay could detect as little as 0.0062 pg of purified C. coli in DNA, or the equivalent of four bacteria. In stools steeded with C. coli cells, the probe could detect between 30 and 60 bacteria per PCR assay. the assay was also successfully used to detect C. coli in rectal swab specimens form experimentally infected rabbits and C.jejuni in human stool samples.
