Reptiles are popular as pets, leading to an increased risk of human infections due to uncommon Salmonella strains including the Arizona group (subspecies arizonae and diarizonae). We present a real-time Arizona-specific polymerase chain reaction demonstrating 100% specificity and 99.6% sensitivity, offering savings in time and labor over traditional identification methods.
爬行动物作为宠物很受欢迎，这导致人类因包括亚利桑那菌群（亚利桑那亚种和双亚利桑那亚种）在内的不常见沙门氏菌菌株而感染的风险增加。我们展示了一种针对亚利桑那菌群的实时聚合酶链反应，其特异性为100%，灵敏度为99.6%，与传统鉴定方法相比，节省了时间和人力。
