Abstract
⺠Real-time PCR (qPCR) assays cannot distinguish between DNA from dead and live cells. ⺠DNA binding molecules allow specific detection of viable cells. ⺠PMA and Reagent D were compared for the detection of foodborne pathogens. ⺠PMA performed better for the three pathogens. ⺠PMA-qPCR was able to specifically detect viable cells din pure cultures and food samples.
