摘要:
The present invention is to provide a multiple detection method that can detect contaminating microorganisms existing in foods, including pathogenic Escherichia coli O157, Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella spp., with high sensitivity comparable or even superior to official methods, comprising the steps of amplifying a plural number of target genes with a single PCR reaction tube and analyzing the same. The following steps are performed consecutively: (A) a step of extracting DNA of the target microorganisms to be detected by treating with at least a lytic enzyme such as Achromopepidase and Lyzocyme and/or bacteriocin having lytic activity such as Enterolysine, a surfactant and a protein denaturing agent; and (B) a step of mixing a specific primer to the target microorganisms to be detected to perform multiplex PCR. Further, it is preferable to add a step of culturing with a culture condition where 1 CFU/100 g microorganisms becomes 103 CFU/ml or more after 18 to 48 h of culture, for example that the pH after culture becomes 5.1 or more, before the step of extracting DNA of the target microorganisms to be detected.

By a process comprising inhibiting LDH2, LDH3, LDH4 and LDH5 in a sample with a protease in the presence of a protein-denaturating agent and then determining LDH1 remaining uninhibited, LDH1 in the sample is easily determined.

摘要:
There are provided a method of evaluating a quality of foods and drinks and an indicator therefor in which the quality of the foods and drinks, particularly the lowering of freshness, i.e. an amount of microorganism proliferated in the foods and drinks can be detected simply and accurately to judge the quality. That is, an aerogen consisting of at least one of yeast, mold and bacteria is sealed together with a fermentation substrate in a closed transparent vessel or transparent soft film bag of a synthetic resin and a quality of foods and drinks is judged by an amount of a gas generated through the formation of an acid generated in the vessel (bag), and there is used an indicator for evaluating thereof.
