IMED chip characterization of Salmonella serovars in commercially available rat blood. IMED chips containing E-DNA sensors for S. Typhimurium and S. Choleraesuis were loaded with LAMP reaction mixtures containing commercial rat blood spiked with either S. Typhimurium or S. Choleraesuis or not spiked with bacteria. The data points and error bars represent the means and standard deviations of measurements from three independently fabricated sensors/chips. Measurements of numbers of CFU/ml were determined by direct colony counting.
