Salmonella enterica and Escherichia coli in Wheat Flour: Detection and Serotyping by a Quasimetagenomic Approach Assisted by Magnetic Capture, Multiple-Displacement Amplification, and Real-Time Sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Food safety is a new area for novel applications of metagenomics analysis, which not only can detect and subtype foodborne pathogens in a single workflow but may also produce additional information with in-depth analysis capabilities. In this study, we applied a quasimetagenomic approach by combining short-term enrichment, immunomagnetic separation (IMS), multiple-displacement amplification (MDA), and nanopore sequencing real-time analysis for simultaneous detection of Salmonella and Escherichia coli in wheat flour. Tryptic soy broth was selected for the 12-h enrichment of samples at 42°C. Enrichments were subjected to IMS using beads capable of capturing both Salmonella and E. coli MDA was performed on harvested beads, and amplified DNA fragments were subjected
