of Salmonella sp. indigenous from Jember, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 21: 2889-2892. The bacterium Salmonella sp. is the most common
cause of foodborne infection in humans. It has the ability to invAde the host, Salmonellosis is highly influenced by the combination of
chromosome and plasmid in which Salmonella Pathogenesis Islands (SPIs) are the biggest gene in the chromosome that are responsible
to build specific interaction between Salmonella and the host. This research performed detection on virulence and specific genes in the
SPIs area using PCR method for two Salmonella spp. bacterial isolates originated from Jember which were KP2 and P21D. Seven pairs
of primers including stn, fimA, spvR (virulence genes), invA, ivaB, spvC, and fliC-d (specific genes) were used. The result revealed that
P21D bacteria containing 3 virulence genes i.e. stn, fimA, and spvR. Meanwhile, only two virulent genes stn, and spvR were present in
KP2 bacteria. For the detection of specific genes, three genes invA, ivaB, and spvC were present while fliC-d genes were not detected.
Only two, invA, and ivaB genes were detected in P21D bacteria, while spvC, and fliC-d were not detected. | en_US |
