ROSA-ZARINANA, Asael E. de la et al. Standardization of PCR technique for detecting Listeria monocytogenes in chicken, beef and pork. Ecosistemas y recur. agropecuarios [online]. 2018, vol.5, n.13, pp.25-34. ISSN 2007-901X.  https://doi.org/10.19136/era.a5n13.1428.

The aim of this study was to standardize the PCR technique for detecting Listeria monocytogenes (Lm) in chicken, beef and pork. The sensitivity and specificity of PCR and the level of concordance with the microbiological method were evaluated. PCR was standardized using a total of 60 samples of chicken, beef and pork (20 samples per meat type.) Sensitivity and specificity were calculated using the 2 x 2 table and the level of accordance by the Kappa index. The minimum detectable DNA concentration was 3.0 ng μL-1. The PCR showed 100% sensitivity and specificity, and 80, 91 and 100% concordance between the methods was obtained for detecting Lm in chicken, beef and pork samples respectively, with 89.4% similarity between the methods for the three types of meat.

Palavras-chave : Listeria monocytogenes; PCR; meat; validation; sensitivity; Bayes’ Theorem; Kappa index.
