A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was applied for the selective amplification of a characteristic sequence within a Salmonella-specific chromosomal fragment, A two-temperature PCR cycle enhanced both the speed and overall sensitivity of the amplification procedure, Twenty-one well-characterized Salmonella strains and a number of non-Salmonella strains were tested, With the exception of the rarely isolated Salmonella arizonae strain, the PCR-based approach enabled the specific identification of Salmonella with a detection limit of 10(3) organisms, In combination with a nested PCR assay, as few as ten organisms were detectable, Specificity was demonstrated as no distinct amplification products were detectable with any of the tested non-Salmonella strains, With a pre-enrichment step using paramagnetic anti-Salmonella beads, an increase in sensitivity was observed in the case of clinical samples while the amplification process was not influenced.
