Detection of Enterotoxigenic Clostridium perfringens in Raw Beef by Polymerase Chain Reaction.

TL;DR: A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) procedure was developed for direct detection of Clostridium perfringens strains with potential for food poisoning in raw beef samples, with no interference with the background microflora present in the raw ground beef.
