Abstract

NEW MATERIAL:Virulence plasmid pKDSC50 which is possessed by Salmonella choleraesuis and participates in pathogenicity. USE:A probe for detecting Salmonellas and a diagnostic and a remedy for ichorrhemia. PREPARATION:For example, Salmonella choleraesuis RF-1 (strain preserved by KITAZATO KENKYUSHO) is cultured in a meat juice liquid medium at 30 deg.C for 3 days, the prepared culture mixture is centrifuged, cells are collected, subjected to bacteriolysis with lysozyme, the bacteriolytic substance is deproteinized, subjected to SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to give a large amount of new virulence plasmid pKDSC50 at 50kb part. The virulence plasmid pKDSC50 is properly cleft with a restriction enzyme to give a DNA fragment, which can be used as a probe for detecting Salmonella, a pathogenic bacteria of ichorrhemia.
