A method of detection Salmonella spp, Cronobacter spp, and Listeria monocytogenes in food

• Summary:

  The invention relates to a method of detection of bacteria Salmonella spp, Cronobacter spp, and Listeria monocytogenes in food by using the methods of bacteria culture coupled with surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy. In the invention were used only two stages of ISO methods. After these steps, instead of performing time-consuming biochemical procedures, we used surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy to detect and identify bacteria.
