Development of a Droplet Digital Polymerase Chain Reaction for Rapid and Simultaneous Identification of Common Foodborne Pathogens in Soft Cheese

Abstract: Dairy products can harbor various microorganisms (e.g., Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli) arising from animal reservoirs, and which can become important sources of foodborne illness. Therefore, early detection of food pathogens is crucial to prevent diseases. We wished to develop an accurate quantitative protocol based on a droplet digital polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) involving eight individual TaqMan™ reactions to detect simultaneously,… Show more

“…has been quantified in the poultry slaughterhouse water samples by the plate count method, droplet dPCR (ddPCR), and qPCR; both molecular-based methods outperformed the culture-based method commonly used in the testing of poultry processing water samples (Rothrock et al, 2013 ). Cremonesi et al ( 2016 ) quantified the common foodborne pathogens including Campylobacter spp. in the soft cheese using ddPCR and qPCR, discovering higher sensitivity of ddPCR.…”

“…The qPCR technique has been used to determine the level of expression of genes involved in biofilm formation of L. monocytogenes (agr and prfA) (Gandra et al 2019). Third-generation PCR, known as a droplet digital PCR (ddPCR), allows fast and quantitative detection (Cremonesi et al 2016). Droplet digital PCR, based on the amplification of a single target DNA molecule in a plurality of separate droplets, enables an exact quantification of DNA copy numbers (Witte et al 2016b).…”

“…Another promising development is the use of ddPCR for the absolute quantification of nucleic acid templates 59,60 . Droplet digital PCR has been used to quantify Salmonella in river sediments, Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) in bovine feces, foodborne pathogens in soft cheeses, and fecal indicators in environmental water [61][62][63] . The method shows great promise for the detection of waterborne pathogens in drinking water due to its reported sensitivity and resilience to inhibitory substances [64][65][66] .…”
