摘要: Abstract The incidence of foodborne infections caused by Shigella spp. is still very high in every year, which poses a great potential threat to public health. Conventional quantification methods based on culture techniques, biochemical, and serological identification are time-consuming labor-intensive. To develop more rapid efficient detection method spp., we compared the sensitivity specificity three different polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods, including conventional PCR, quantitative real-time PCR (RTQ-PCR), droplet digital (ddPCR). Our results indicated that ddPCR exhibited higher sensitivity, limit was 10−5 ng/μl for genomic DNA templates, 10−1 cfu/ml bacteria culture. In addition, found time-saving method, required shorter pre-culturing time. Collectively, assay reliable effective
