Molecular Charaterisation of Salmonella Serovars Isolated from Poultry

Salmonellosis has received considerable amount of attention because public health concerns in third world and developing countries including Malaysia. In Malaysia, the incidence of non-typhoidal salmonellosis is relatively unknown and has not been given much attention. Data collec1ed shows that t...

In Malaysia, the incidence of non-typhoidal salmonellosis is relatively unknown and has not been given much attention.

One hundred and fourty seven Salmonella isolates belonging to 14 serovars were examined in the present study. Molecular techniques namely random amplified polymorphic DNA-PCR (RAPD-PCR), enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus-PCR (ERlC-PCR), polymerase chain reaction-ribotyping and pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) were used to subtype all the 147 Salmonella isolates at strains leveL Among these techniques. RAPD-PCR was the most superior in distinguishing all Salmonella serovars, followed by PFGE, ERIC-PCR and PCR-ribotyping. The PCR-based methods offered several advan1:ages over PFGE due to its speed, economics, ease to perform, results can be generated within 24 hours and large of samples can be analysed. simultaneously. In contrast, PFGE method was technically tedious, demanding and time consuming. Extensive genetic polymorphism or diversity was observed among strains of Salmonella serovars. In molecular typing for epidemiological studies, the level of the percentage of similarity in cluster analysis is arbitrarily adopted based on the clustering of the strains analysed. In this study, 70% of similarity level was chosen to analyse results obtained in PCR-based and PFGE analysis.
