Abstract:
The present disclosure describes compositions, methods and kits for detection of one or multiple microorganism contaminants in samples. Some embodiments relate to detecting one or more microorganisms producing virulence factors such as shiga toxin stx1 and stx2 and eae. Some embodiments relate to detection of STEC microorganisms including an E. coli O26, an E. coli O45, an E. coli O103, an E. coli O111, an E. coli O121 or an E. coli O145. In some embodiments, compositions, methods and kits can detect and identify individual serotypes of shiga toxin producing microorganisms. Workflows for multiple microbe detection and identification are also described.
Abstract:
Disclosed are compositions, assays, methods, diagnostic methods, kits and diagnostic kits for the specific and differential detection of a non-Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (non-MAP) organism, wherein a non-MAP organism is a Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) organism that does not belong to the Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) organism, from samples including veterinary samples, clinical samples, food samples, forensic sample, an environmental sample (e.g., soil, dirt, garbage, sewage, air, or water), including food processing and manufacturing surfaces, or a biological sample. Exemplary non-MAP organisms including M. avium subsp. avium (MAA), M. avium subsp. hominissuis (MAH), and M. avium subsp. silvaticum (MAS) can be detected by the present compositions, kits and methods.
Abstract:
The present specification relates to methods and kits for detection of animals that are persistently infected (PI) with a Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) and/or transiently infected (TI) with BVDV. Some embodiments describe methods to distinguish a PI animal from a TI animal using a single one-time testing protocol.
Abstract:
The present teachings describe compositions, methods and kits for detection of one or multiple microorganism contaminants in samples. Some embodiments relate to detecting one or more microorganisms producing virulence factors such as a shiga toxin ( stx ) or an eae . In some embodiments, compositions, methods and kits can detect and identify individual strains and serotypes of shiga toxin producing microorganisms. Some embodiments describe compositions, methods and kits for detecting STEC microbes. Workflows for multiple microbe detection and identification are also described.
