A prototype automated system using fluorescent antibody (FA) was evaluated for rapid detection of salmonellae in foods. Samples were enriched in selenite cystine and tetrathionate broths. After incubation, both were transferred into fresh selenite cystine for a 4-h "post-enrichment" to dilute possible background fluorescence from product. These cultures were then analyzed automatically, and results were compared with those obtained by the methods of the Association of Official Analytical Chemists (AOAC). Initially, 167 samples of milk powder, dried yeast, and imported frog legs were examined. The AOAC and automated FA methods correlated well with all samples but frog legs. Difficulty with the latter was caused by procedural and mechanical problems coupled with high numbers of competing microorganisms in post-enrichment cultures. Modification of procedure and partial redesign of equipment corrected these difficulties, and excellent correlation was obtained with another 116 frog leg samples. All 89 AOAC-confirmed positives were also detected by the automated FA method, and there were only 4% false FA positives. The system shows potential for screening products for salmonellae; however, all positives should be confirmed by manual biochemical and serological methods.
