NordVal 057 VETPOD Sal-LAMP kit for detection of Salmonella spp. in meat

Method description

The VETPOD system detects Salmonella spp. in liquid samples after pre-enrichment in e.g. Buffered Peptone Water (ISO 6579 procedure) or equivalent pre-enrichment procedures. The detection method is based on detection of nucleic acids (bacterial DNA) in the sample in question.

LAMP (Loop Mediated Isothermal Amplification) is used for multiplication of nucleic acids to a detectable level. The detection principle is based on the detection of the turbidity in the reaction wells, formed by precipitates during the LAMP reaction.

The proprietary method consists of a detection instrument ready-to-use chips to be loaded with the sample after a short treatment to release bacterial DNA. Ten samples can be analysed at the same time and the detection time is less than 60 min. The VETPOD system is portable and thus well suited for on-site use at e.g. slaughterhouses and food producing establishments.

The method is applicable for the detection of Salmonella spp. in raw meat and ready-to-cook meat products and raw poultry and ready-to-cook poultry products.
