The official culture method for detection of Salmonella in food products requires at least four days to obtain negative results. Development of a practical, rapid Salmanella detection method would be benificial to the food industry. An enzyme immunoassay, (EIA) has been developed. In this project, twenty-six Salmonella serotypes were inoculated into five food types, the EIA and the official culture method were compared, the results showed: (1) The detection rate of EIA is higher than that of official method by 3%; (2) EIA has the screening function and the results conld be ontained 24-48 hours earlier than the official cullurs method. A study of the perfoumance of five agars (Brilliant Green Agar, Bismuth Sulfite Agar, Hektoen Agar, Salmonella-Shigella Agar and Xylose Desoxycholate Agar), used individually or in combinations, showed that only the Salmonella –Shigella agar conld not be used to satisfactorily detect Salmenella in the five food types. The particular four-agar comfination, alony with three-agar combinations (Brilliant Green Bismuth Sulfite Xylose Desoxycholate agars, and Bismuth Sulfite Hektoen Enteric Xylose Desoxycholate agars), were able to recover more Salmonella isolates than the combination currently recommended by the AOAC. Cross-reactivity with non-Salmonellae was not observed. |
