“…The overarching goal of these studies was to develop and test detection methods that were more sensitive, more rapid and/or more cost effective, focusing on optimizing the enrichment steps and differential culture media or developing automated molecular methods. Eight studies validated detection techniques involving PCR (both commercial and lab‐scale) compared to traditional culturing methods (either ISO or FDA approved methods) (Bolocan et al., ; D'Amico & Donnelly, ; Dalmasso et al., ; Hoffman & Wiedmann, ; Kovacevic et al., ; Medrala, Dabrowski, & Szymanska, ; Norton, Wiedmann, Boor, & McCamey, ; Pagadala, Parveen, Schwarz, Rippen, & Luchansky, ). Three studies compared commercial detection techniques (Kabuki, Boor, Wiedmann, & Kuaye, ; Schirmer, Langsrud, Moretro, Hagtvedt, & Heir, ; Vongkamjan, Fuangpaiboon, Jirachotrapee, & Turner, ).…”
