Study on molecular-biological characteristics of Salmonella bacteria isolated from food in Viet Nam

Abstract

The study was conducted to identify and characterize specific genomes (InvA and Omp genes) of Salmonella that was isolated from food (pork, chicken meat) in Viet Nam by sequencing PCR products. The studied results showed that sequences of the amplified genomes possessed a high homologous nucleotide sequence (>99.9%) compared to the nucleotide sequences of the corresponding genes reported in the GenBank. The nucleotide sequence of Salmonella isolated from food samples in Viet Nam presented two different locations compared to the corresponding sequences in the international publications: 01 different location for the Omp gene and three different locations for the InvA gene.
