title: Comparison of two procedures for detection of Salmonella in food, feed, and pharmaceutical products.
abstract: A survey of food, feed, and pharmaceutical products was undertaken to compare an accelerated Salmonella detection procedure by enrichment serology (ES) to the traditional procedure outlined in the Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM). Excellent agreement between the two methods was obtained in the results of 689 test samples involving 35 different products. In addition to being more rapid and simpler to perform, the ES procedure was just as accurate and sensitive as the BAM procedure.
