Product Description

CerTest Salmonella one step card test is a coloured chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Salmonella spp. (S. typhi, S.typhimurium, S. enteritidis) in stool samples and Salmonella spp. suspected colonies in stool culture.

CerTest Salmonella card test offers a simple and a highly sensitive screening assay to make a presumptive diagnosis of Salmonella spp. infection (salmonellosis) and it could be used to identify of suspected isolates of Salmonella spp. from selective media (stool culture).

Salmonella infections are acquired by eating contaminated poultry, eggs or dairy products. The Salmonella spp. also spreads easily from raw or undercooked poultry to innocent vegetables, fruit or other foods via contaminated hands, knives, countertops or cutting boards.

Due to the ability of Salmonella to multiply in a wide variety of foods, it is important to be able to isolate the organisms even when present in very small numbers in the feces.
