Abstract
Method of detecting the presence of Salmonella in a food sample including providing at least one DNA probe which is capable of selectively hybridizing to Salmonella DNA to form detectable complexes, contacting the DNA probes with the bacteria in the food sample under conditions which allow the probe to hybridize to Salmonella DNA present in the food sample to form hybrid DNA complexes, and detecting the hybrid DNA complexes as an indication of the presence of Salmonella in the food sample.
