81657-9
LaboratorySalmonella sp spaO gene [Presence] in Stool by NAA with probe detection
Definition
This test targets the Salmonella sp SpaO gene. The SpaO gene is involved in a secretory pathway responsible for the surface presentation of determinants needed for the entry of Salmonella sp into mammalian cells.[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P40699] This term was created for, but is not limited in use to, the submitter's BD MAX Enteric Bacterial test kit, that is a diagnostic test for the direct qualitative detection of enteric bacterial pathogens.
