Verantwortung trifft Innovation: Ralf Sibbing über Ethik, Sicherheit und die Kraft unabhängiger Beratung in der Gesundheitsbranche!

New Method: Typing of Salmonella Strains via RT-PCR
Salmonellosis is an intestinal infection caused by Salmonella, transmitted through contaminated food or water, as well as contact with infected animals. Salmonella can be found in raw or undercooked meat, raw eggs, unpasteurized milk, fresh cheeses made from unpasteurized milk, and fruits and vegetables irrigated with contaminated water.
