OBJECTIVE A simple DNA macroarray system was developed for detection of antibiotic resistance and other marker genes associated with the multidrug-resistant food pathogen Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serotype Typhimurium DT104. RESULTS A multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) incorporating digoxigenin-dUTP was used to simultaneously amplify seven marker sequences, with subsequent rapid detection of the amplicons by hybridization with an array of probes immobilized on polyester cloth and immunoenzymatic assay of the bound label. This system provided sensitive detection of the different genetic markers in the S. Typhimurium DT104 genome, giving positive reactions with as few as 10 CFU, and the hybridizations were highly specific, with no reactions of amplicons with heterologous probes on the array. CONCLUSIONS This cloth-based hybridization array system (CHAS) provides a simple, cost-effective tool for monitoring S. Typhimurium DT104 in foods and their production environment. CONCLUSIONS The CHAS is a simple and cost-effective tool for the simultaneous detection of amplicons generated in a multiplex PCR, and the concept is broadly applicable to the detection and characterization of food pathogens.

D009693 Nucleic Acid Hybridization Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.
