Isolation and detection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae from cell culture by culture and PCR.
Background: Mycoplasma pneumoniae is one of the major species of mycoplasmas which could contaminate cell cultures. Identification of M. pneuminae is significant because Mycoplasmas could contaminate and have unsuitable effect on the cell cultures. Rapid detection of these contaminations is so important and it could be significant role in preventing and controlling of contamination in cell cul...
متن کاملQuantitative recovery of Listeria monocytogenes and select salmonella serotypes from environmental sample media.
Environmental sampling has become increasingly important in the food industry for monitoring the presence of specific pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella enterica. Several microbiological media are available for storage and transport of environmental samples from the processing plant to the test laboratory. In this study, we quantified the survival of L. monocytogenes, S. Ty...
متن کاملComparison of the multiple-sample means with composite sample results for fecal indicator bacteria by quantitative PCR and culture.
Few studies have addressed the efficacy of composite sampling for measuring indicator bacteria by quantitative PCR (qPCR). We compared results from composited samples with multiple-sample means for culture- and qPCR-based water quality monitoring. Results from composited samples for both methods were similarly correlated to multiple-sample means and predicted criteria exceedances equally.
متن کاملIsolation and Identification of L. plantarum from Iranian Fermented Cucumbers by Conventional Culture and PCR Methods
The species of Lactobacillus are widely present in many natural environments that areimportant in fermented processes. Among these species some belong to the lactic acid bacteria group that areuseful in fermented food. One of the species of lactobacilli group such as L. plantarum provides health benefits,but their identification is one of the main issue. In order to proceed with this project, c...
متن کاملEnrichment Broth Culture-duplex Pcr Assay
An enrichment broth culture-duplex PCR combination assay was devised to identify Clostridium perfringens directly from fecal samples. The method consists of a combination of short enrichment of samples in selective media, DNA isolation, and performing duplex PCR using two pairs of primers which identify C. perfringens strains that harbor the virulence enterotoxin gene. Comparison of two selecti...
