Abstract

Salmonella can cause food poisoning and food-borne disease outbreaks,which is a significant global public health problem.The serotype of salmonella isolated from human infection,and the PFGE molecular typing of Salmonella strains with the same serotype,can enhance the ability of identifying food-borne disease outbreaks,detect cases and trace the source of infection.In the article,the advance of Samondla serotype and PFGE molecular typing and its apphcation are reviewed. Key words: Samonella; Serotype; Outbreak; Pulsed field gel electrophoresis; PulseNet
