Abstract excerpt
A multiplex-PCR assay with seven primers was developed for the identification of the five human and mammal related species of the emerging foodborne pathogen Arcobacter. The assay was validated using 58 reference and 358 collection strains isolated from humans and mammals. The selected primers on the 23 S RNA gene amplify a 2061 bp fragment from A. butzleri, a 1590 bp fragment from A. thereuis, a 1125 bp fragment...
