Abstract

Application of pyrosequencing of six Salmonella-specific genes as a rapid Salmonella identification method was tested. Primers for hns, hisJ and hilA had non-specific reactions with non-Salmonella strains. Primers for invA, iroB and fimY had specific PCR products and pyrosequences of Salmonella, suggesting that they were suitable for Salmonella rapid identification.

► Pyrosequencing identification of Salmonella was studied. ► Six previous Salmonella identification genes were assessed. ► Only invA, iroB and fimY were suitable for Salmonella rapid identification. ► It required less than 3 h to have pyrosequencing identification results. ► Pyosequencing provides another rapid identification method with high specificity.
