Abstract

Salmonella enterica serovar Enteritidis was detected in artificially inoculated eggs within 24 h through a rapid monoclonal antibody-based dot blot immunoassay. Detection in poultry and other products required 28 h. Samples were directly enriched in homogenized egg without the need for pre- or postenrichment steps. Serovar Enteritidis was detected in the presence of other bacteria when outcompeted 1:400.

Detection of serovar Enteritidis in artificially inoculated eggs in the presence of a mixed population of bacteria (serovar Heidelberg, P. vulgaris, P. fluorescens, E. coli, C. freundii, and A. faecalis). Values are the ratios of serovar Enteritidis to the mixed population of bacteria per 50 g of egg.
