Microbiological test procedure, best analysis procedure for Salmonella

Hi :

As every boday knowes ,Salmonella is a bacterium can cause an intestinal illness in people, we are doing lab tests to identify 3 types of bacteria , and I am looking for the best analysis procedure for Salmonells (the analysis method followed by us is Pour plating ) so can you tell what is the procedure includes the best and common Media using in this test ? our food includes raw poultry , raw meat , veal , cooked chicken , and cooked meat .


Thanks & Regards

Dear hygienic,

There is no unique answer to yr question.

One option which I'm sure you're lab. know well -

Hi there!

For detection of salmonella, we use salmosyst broth for non-selective enrichment of the sample. A tablet of salmosyst-selective supplement is then added to the pre-enriched culture for selective enrichment. It is incubated in 35degC. For isolation, a loopful of the enriched broth is streaked to Rambach agar. Plates are incubated at 35degC for 18-48 hours. Pink to red colonies are observed as presumptive colonies. For confirmatory, use TSIA and LIA for suspected colonies.

Hope this helps.

Thanks thanks,

Dear majoy,

Thks for input.

For confirmatory, use TSIA and LIA for suspected colonies.

Hi.

The testing I have used in the past for Salmonella spp, is as follows:

25g sample - 1:10 primary enrichment with Buffer Peptone Water, followed by subculturing to RVS and MKTTn broths. After incubation, broths plated onto Brilliant Green and XLD agar and any typical colonies are subject to confirmation, using agglutination & biochemical gallery.

Hope this helps.

Dear Friend

PCR also good & rapid method for salmonella detection

Dear All,

There seems to be a lot of rich laboratories reading this thread !

Thanks thanks,

I agree Charles, PCR would be best for confirmatory...

But we are not a rich laboratory, so we do the LIA and TSIA

Dear majoy,

Thks for input.



I think full confirmation normally necessitates serological / additional biochemical testing.
