1 PCR-baserad diagnostik och toxinanalys Peter Rådström LTH, Lunds universitet Diagnostic PCR Amplification + Specificity Rapid Automation - Detection Limit Robustness No Isolate Neurotoxins Clostridium botulinum Mycotoxins Fusarium graminearum

2 PCR as a complement to culturebased methods Diagnostic PCR Why do we need new methods? *High specificity and accuracy (no false-negative/-positive results) *High Rapidity (at-line and on-line analysis) Amplification *Quantitative analysis (food spoilage micro-organisms) + Specificity Rapid Automation - Detection Limit Robustness No Isolate *Low detection limit (less than one pathogen per 5 gram) *Simplicity (user-friendly and automation) *High robustness (inter-lab reproducibility) *Acceptance (validation and standardisation) *Low cost (number of test) *Sample matrix flexibility (no interference)
