In recent years, the proportion of Salmonella enterica infections represented by S. enterica serovar Newport has increased markedly among humans and animals. Multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) has proven to be useful in discriminating other highly clonal Salmonella serovars. Here, we report on the development of a highly discriminatory MLVA for Salmonella serovar Newport.

Salmonella enterica Serotype 4,5,12:i:-, an Emerging Salmonella Serotype That Represents Multiple Distinct Clones
Soyer, Yeşim; Davis, M. A.; Maurer, J.; McDonough, P. L.; Schoonmaker-Bopp, D. J.; Dumas, N. B.; Root, T.; Warnick, L. D.; Groehn, Y. T.; Wiedmann, M. (American Society for Microbiology, 2009-11-01)
The prevalence, among human clinical cases, of Salmonella enterica serotype 4,5,12: i:-, a serotype antigenically similar to Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium but lacking second-phase flagellar antigens, has increased considerably over the last 10 years. To probe the evolution and ecology of this emerging serotype, we characterized 190 Salmonella isolates initially classified as Salmonella serotypes 4,5,12: i:- (n = 90) and Typhimurium (n = 100) and obtained from various sources in the United States ...
Development and validation of a resistance and virulence gene microarray targeting Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica

A microarray was developed to simultaneously screen Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica for multiple genetic traits. The final array included 203 60-mer oligonucleotide probes, including 117 for resistance genes, 16 for virulence genes, 25 for replicon markers, and 45 other markers. Validity of the array was tested by assessing inter-laboratory agreement among four collaborating groups using a blinded study design. Internal validation indicated that the assay was reliable (area under the receiver-opera...
Antimicrobial aptamers for detection and inhibition of microbial pathogen growth
Ozalp, Veli Cengiz; Bilecen, Kivanc; Kavruk, Murat; Öktem, Hüseyin Avni (Future Medicine Ltd, 2013-03-01)
Discovery of alternative sources of antimicrobial agents are essential in the ongoing battle against microbial pathogens. Legislative and scientific challenges considerably hinder the discovery and use of new antimicrobial drugs, and new approaches are in urgent demand. On the other hand, rapid, specific and sensitive detection of airborne pathogens is becoming increasingly critical for public health. In this respect affinity oligonucleotides, aptamers, provide unique opportunities for the development of na...
Effect of controlled athmosphere storage,modified athmosphere packaging and gaseous ozone treatment on the survival characteristics of Salmonella enteritidis ay cherry tomatoes
Daş, Elif; Gürakan, Candan; Department of Food Engineering (2004)
In recent years, outbreaks of infections associated with raw and minimally processed fruits and vegetables have been reported. Possible sources for contamination are irrigation water, manure, wash water, handling by workers and contact with contaminated surfaces. Pathogens can occur on raw and minimally processed produce at populations ranging from 103 to 109 CFU/g and able to survive and sometimes grow under various storage conditions. The objective of this study was to analyse the growth/survival of Salmo...

In this report, a passive microfluidic chip design was developed for fast and sensitive fluorometric determination of Escherichia coli (E. coli) based on sandwich immunoassay. Initially, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and chitosan modified mercaptopropionic acid capped cadmium telluride (CdTe) quantum dots (QDs) were functionalized with E.coli specific antibody to form a sandwich immunoassay with the E. coli. The magnetic separation and preconcentration of the E.coli from the sample solution was performed in...
