In a recent application note, scientists describe how molecular testing can boost microbial detection capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Traditional testing methods use a combination of microbial culture and biochemical and serological strategies to isolate and detect individual microbial colonies. While these methods are standard practice and proven successful, identifying microbes using PCR offers several advantages.<\/p>\n<p>With traditional methods, it can be difficult to isolate and distinguish the target organism when present amongst high levels of other organisms, which is why a secondary, selective enrichment step is usually required following initial enrichment using traditional plating methods. Waiting up to several days for a result can have a real financial impact on a business. PCR is highly sensitive and can identify relatively\u00a0low amounts of microbes (typically about 1,000 CFU\/mL) from a culture that may contain much higher levels of background flora,\u00a0decreasing the time needed to grow up and purify\u00a0cultures. This means results are available much sooner with PCR.<\/p>\n<p>Taking these advantages further, real-time PCR is an improvement over<span style=\"color: #333333\"> end-point\u00a0<\/span>PCR, with no need to handle samples after the reaction is complete. Furthermore, real-time PCR methods that utilize a TaqMan\u2122 probe, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/search\/global\/searchAction.action?query=microseq+assay&amp;resultPage=1&amp;resultsPerPage=15&amp;autocomplete=\" target=\"_blank\">MicroSEQ\u2122<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/search\/global\/searchAction.action?query=taqman+assay&amp;resultPage=1&amp;resultsPerPage=15&amp;autocomplete=\" target=\"_blank\">TaqMan\u2122<\/a> assays (Thermo\u00a0Fisher\u00a0Scientific), show increased specificity over standard PCR methods because real-time PCR requires hybridization of three oligonucleotides to the target DNA, instead of just two oligonucleotides that are required for standard PCR.<\/p>\n<p>Both end-point\u00a0PCR and real-time PCR are completely customizable, however, real-time PCR can be more easily multiplexed. Many real-time PCR instruments can detect multiple dyes, individually as well as simultaneously, in the same PCR reaction mix. For example, the Applied Biosystems\u2122<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/us\/en\/home\/life-science\/pcr\/real-time-pcr\/real-time-pcr-instruments\/7500-fast-real-time-pcr-system.html\"> 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System <\/a>(Thermo Fisher Scientific) can detect up to five dyes in a single reaction. By doing so, investigators can design assays to simultaneously identify targets such as multiple species within a genus or a specific serovar within a single species.\u00a0For example, one PCR assay can detect whether any <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/order\/catalog\/product\/4403930\" target=\"_blank\">Salmonella species<\/a>\u00a0are within the sample, while another PCR assay can detect <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/order\/catalog\/product\/4457030\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Salmonella enterica<\/em> subspecies <em>enterica<\/em> serovar Enteritidis<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Real-time PCR kits also simplify the process. For example, the TaqMan\u2122 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermofisher.com\/search\/global\/searchAction.action?query=Salmonella+spp.+Ultimate+Assay&amp;resultsPerPage=15&amp;personaFilterTerm=Catalog&amp;show_seproductcategorynavigator=true&amp;show_productcategorynavigator=true&amp;show_taxonomynavigator=true&amp;show_brandnavigator=true&amp;firstSearch=false&amp;mode=and&amp;navigator=seproductcategorynavigator&amp;modifier=Microbial+Detection+%26amp%3B+Identification+Kits&amp;e71complete=false\">Salmonella spp. Ultimate Assay<\/a>\u00a0is a multiplex real-time PCR assay developed with input from the FDA.
