Abstract:
Objective To developa multiplex PCR method for identification of
salmonella enterica serovars Typhi and Paratyphi A.
Methods The PCR primers for O,H,and Viantigen genes,rfbE,rfbs,flic-a,and viaB,were designed and used for detecting 54 tested bacteria strains,including 47 Salmonella strains and 7 other bacterial strains.
Results All the examined isolates of
Salmonella serovars Typhi and Paratyphi A were accurately identified by this assay.
Conclusion The multiplex PCR can identify
Salmonella enterica serovars Typhi and Paraty phi A with high specificity.
