RESUMO
The immunomagnetic separation Dynabeads anti-Salmonella technique was evaluated for the detection of Salmonella species in a variety of foods, feeds, and environmental samples. Salmonella cells in preenrichment broths were captured using the Dynabeads anti-Salmonella system and were then washed and plated on indicator media. A total of 308 naturally contaminated samples were analyzed, including 46 cheese and egg products, 183 animal feeds, and 79 environmental swabs. The results of the Dynabeads method gave 100% correlation with the results of the standard culture technique used for foods and the modified semisolid Rappaport-Vassiliadis method used for feeds and environmental samples.
