Detection of Salmonellae in Foods with an Enzyme Immunometric Assay
1New South Wales Department of Agriculture, Hawkesbury Agricultural Research Unit, Richmond, N.S.W., 2753, Australia.
Abstract:
The efficacy of an enzyme-immunometric assay (EIMA) was investigated against a standard cultural method (SCM) for Salmonella detection in 82 food samples. Cultures of the food samples were assayed by EIMA after preenrichment and again after selective enrichment. Testing of preenrichment cultures by EIMA was unreliable as only 7 Salmonella -positive samples were detected. However, full agreement between EIMA and SCM was obtained when the selective enrichment cultures were assayed by EIMA, resulting in the identification of 24 Salmonella -positive samples.

Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay
There are many different types of ELISAs, but they all involve an antibody molecule whose constant region binds an enzyme, leaving the variable region free to bind its specific antigen. Enzyme-substrate reaction allows the antigen to be visualized or...

Enzyme-linked Receptors
Neurotrophin (NT) receptors are a family of RTKs, including trkA, trkB, and trkC (tropomyosin-related kinase) receptors. TrkA is specific for nerve growth factor (NGF), neurotrophin-6, and neurotrophin-7. TrkB binds...
