Method Description
The Detection and Isolation of L. monocytogenes using the Listeria monocytogenes (ELFA) Test and Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) involves a dual approach for comprehensive analysis. The Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Assay (ELFA) employs specific antibodies to detect L. monocytogenes antigens, producing a fluorescent signal. Simultaneously, qPCR amplifies and quantifies the bacterial DNA. This combined method provides both rapid detection and accurate quantification of L. monocytogenes, enhancing the sensitivity and reliability of results. It is particularly crucial for food safety, allowing for efficient identification, isolation, and appropriate management of L. monocytogenes contamination in diverse food samples, ensuring compliance with stringent regulatory standards.
