The Test
Materials Required But Not Provided
To perform the test, a portion (120 µL) of the enrichment culture is placed into the sample port of the test device. The sample flows through the lateral flow device, providing distinct, visible results. If a line develops only in the control zone, the sample is negative for Salmonella enteritidis. If lines are present in the control and test zones, the sample is presumptively positive for Salmonella enteritidis.
