In‐house validation of real‐time PCR methods for detecting the INV A and TTR genes of Salmonella spp. in food
Abstract
The microbiological standard method for the detection of Salmonella spp. is time‐consuming, and consequently there is a need for an alternative rapid methodology for its detection. In this study, two open‐formula real‐time PCR methods for detecting the inv A and ttr gene Salmonella spp. have been successfully optimized and in‐house validated. Different DNA extraction procedures were used (boiling, Chelex resin and standard I ‐ Biorad). The relative sensitivity and false positive ratio for the alternative methods were 100% and 0.0%, respectively. The relative trueness was in range from 96.8% to 99.2%. No false negative results were detected. The lowest Ct values were obtained using the protocol for detecting the ttr gene after DNA extraction by the Chelex. The results were compared in a large number of food and environmental samples to those of the SRPS EN ISO 6579:2008 standard method and commercial kit (IQ check® Salmonella II kit, Bio‐Rad, USA).
Practical applicationsThe whole procedure of real‐time PCR methods in this study was approximately 20 hr, in contrast to 4–5 days of analysis time for the standard method (SRPS EN ISO 6579:2008). The real‐time PCR method also provides a high level of sensitivity and specificity with a low risk of cross‐contamination. The implementation of the method for routine analysis will help improve safety in the food production chain, by providing results compatible with the ISO standard, but more rapidly.

Standardisation of inactivated influenza vaccines – learning from history
Abstract The single radial immunodiffusion assay has been the accepted method for determining the potency of inactivated influenza vaccines since 1978. The world‐wide adoption of this assay for vaccine standardisation was facilitated through collaborative studies that demonstrated a high ... more
1918 pandemic morbidity: the first wave hits the poor, the second wave hits the rich
Abstract Background Whether morbidity from the 1918‐19 influenza pandemic discriminated by socioeconomic status has remained a subject of debate for 100 years. In lack of data to study this issue recent literature have hypothesized that morbidity was “socially neutral”. Objectives ... more
