Simultaneous detection of Carnobacterium and Leuconostoc in meat products by multiplex PCR.

2004

M.C. MACIAN, E. CHENOLL AND R. AZNAR. 2004. Aims: To develop a multiplex PCR approach for simultaneous detection of Leuconostoc and Carnobacterium and its validation in meat products. Methods and Results: Two multiplex PCR assays were developed using newly designed 16S rDNA-directed primers adapted to the current taxonomic situation of genera Leuconostoc and Carnobacterium that allow: (i) simultaneous detection of both genera, and members of the nonmotile species of genus Carnobacterium and (ii) identification in a single assay of the nonmotile species C. divergens, C. maltaromicum and C. gallinarum. Sensitivity values of 10 3 and 10 4 CFU g )1 were determined for multiplex PCR detection of…
