Table 2.
The number of positive detection of Campylobacter 16S rDNA, C. jejuni, C. coli, and C. lari with multiplex PCR in four different enrichment conditions at 42°C.
| Detection with multiplex PCR | BN | BNR | BNP | BNRP |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16S rDNA only* | 10 (40%) | 3 (12%) | 9 (33%) | 2 (9%) |
| 16S rDNA + C. jejuni | 7 (28%) | 9 (36%) | 11 (41%) | 9 (39%) |
| 16S rDNA + C. coli | 4 (16%) | 6 (24%) | 4 (15%) | 7 (30%) |
| 16S rDNA + C. jejuni + C. coli | 3 (12%) | 7 (28%) | 2 (7%) | 5 (22%) |
| 16S rDNA + C. lari | 1 (4%) | 0 | 1 (4%) | 0 |
| Total 16s rDNA* positive | 25 (100%) | 25 (100%) | 27 (100%) | 23 (100%) |
*Positive in multiplex PCR detection with Campylobacter 16S rDNA primers but negative for species-specific detection.
