The performance of the GENE-TRAK Salmonella assay in food as been evaluated with samples of flour or flour based bakery mix provided by the American Association of Cereal Chemists (AACC) check sample program. Six pairs of coded samples were tested from November 1986 through September 1987. The test correctly identified all six positive and six negative samples. This included a lactose positive Salmonella strain that was missed by a large majority of the other laboratories that participated in the survey. These results indicate that DNA probe technology can provide not only more timely results than traditional methods, but in some cases can actually provide more accurate information.

Background: To support the implementation of high-throughput pipelines suitable for SARS-CoV-2 sequencing and analysis in a clinical laboratory, we developed an automated sample preparation and analysis workflow.

Methods: We used the established ARTIC protocol with approximately 400 bp amplicons sequenced on Oxford Nanopore's MinION. Sequences were analyzed using Nextclade, assigning both a clade and quality score to each sample.

Aim: The present study was undertaken with the objectives to characterize and to analyze combined genotypes of cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14) gene to explore its association with clinical mastitis in Karan Fries (KF) cows maintained in the National Dairy Research Institute herd, Karnal.

Materials And Methods: Genomic DNA was extracted using blood of randomly selected 94 KF lactating cattle by phenol-chloroform method. After checking its quality and quantity, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out using six sets of reported gene-specific primers to amplify complete KF CD14 gene.
