ABSTRACT
VereBeef™ Detection Kit, incorporating both multiplex PCR and microarray technologies on a lab-on-chip platform, is intended for qualitative detection and differentiation of Escherichia coli O157H7, E. coli O26, E. coli O45, E. coli O103, E. coli O111, E. coli O121, E. coli O145, Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) virulence factors (stx1A, stx2A, eae), and Salmonella species in one test using raw beef trim samples. This product underwent extensive evaluations, including inclusivity-exclusivity, method comparison, robustness, lot-to-lot variability, and stability studies. The inclusivity/exclusivity study demonstrated that VereBeef Detection Kit specifically detects and identifies target analytes without occurrence of false-positive and false-negative detection. In the method comparison study, the performance of the VereBeef Detection Kit was compared with U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Service Microbiology Laboratory Guidebook's methods for target organism detection in raw beef trim using E. coli O157H7 single inoculation and Salmonella and non-O157 STEC dual inoculation. Data demonstrated equivalence in both methods. The robustness study showed that changes in the test parameters do not impact assay performance. Collectively, VereBeef Detection Kit is able to detect target pathogens in raw beef trim with a minimum enrichment time of 8 h for E. coli O157H7 detection and 10 h for Salmonella and non-O157 STEC detection.
