This assay simultaneously detects 8 bacterial species<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> and was compared with our routine selenite enrichment broth medium (Oxoid) and subsequent plating onto Salmonella-Shigella agar (bioMérieux). Between May 2018 and December 2018 a total of 5744 diarrheic stool samples collected from 4754 patients were processed by multiplex PCR and inoculated on selenite broth. The nucleic acid extraction and PCR setup were performed with the Microlab STARlet system (Hamilton). The identification of suggestive colonies grown on Salmonella-Shigella agar was performed by MALDI-TOF (Brucker Daltonics). The selenite broth detected 113 samples from 111 patients with <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. and the Allplex-GI-Bacteria, 104. An analysis of discordant results showed that the selenite broth medium detected 16 <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. that the Allplex-GI-Bacteria did not detect and 9 <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. were missed with selenite broth but were detected with the Allplex-GI-Bacteria. Considering the culture as the gold-standard the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. PCR reveals a sensitivity of 85.6% (95% CI: 0.7776–0.9103), specificity 99.8% (95% CI: 0.9969–0.9992), positive predictive value 91.3% (95% CI: 0.8418–0.9557) and negative predictive value 99.7% (95% CI: 0.9954–0.9983). To assess the analytical sensitivity of both methods, controls of a 0.5 MacFarland of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella enterica</span> type culture provided by the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Sociedad Española de Enfermedades Infecciosas y Microbiología Clínica</span> were prepared in saline serial dilutions and adjusted to contain a known number of CFU/ml. When triplicate serial dilutions were tested, the limit of detection of PCR and selenite broth were 10<span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span><span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>CFU/ml and 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>CFU/ml, respectively. Although PCR provides earlier diagnosis, selenite enrichment broth is more sensitive than the Allplex-GI-Bacteria PCR for the detection of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. Allplex-GI-Bacteria showed higher sensitivity than reported for Luminex GPP (79.2%) and Verigene EP (83.3%) but was less sensitive than the nested-PCR approach of BioFire GP (95.8%).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> On the other hand, there are also some contradicting reports: Martín et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0065"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> reported that the Allplex-GI-Bacteria panel demonstrated superior sensitivity for <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp., this disagreement could be explained by the different sensitivity of the commercial selenite broth media used in our report and the in-house selenite broth medium used by Martín et al. Yoo et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0070"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> also demonstrated greater sensitivity for Luminex GPP than conventional methods but after an agreement analysis were considered false positive results. In our study 8.6% (9/104) yielded only PCR-positive results that would be missed by selenite enrichment alone, probably due to the presence of non-viable bacteria as a result of extended or inadequate storage of the sample or prior use of antibiotics. In contrast with other cultivable bacteria causing gastroenteritis such as <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Campylobacter</span> spp. or <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Yersinia</span> spp., the lower sensitivity in <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp. detection with most of the gastrointestinal infection syndromic panels might be due to the use of enrichment broth media that increases bacterial load and recovery. Until PCR methods are as sensitive as conventional culture, the combination of PCR technology plus enrichment broth is advisable for an optimal laboratory diagnosis of gastrointestinal infection by <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Salmonella</span> spp., especially when patients report compatible clinical and epidemiological findings.</p></span>" "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "bibliografia" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "References" "seccion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "bibs0015" "bibliografiaReferencia" => array:7 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "bib0040" "etiqueta" => "1" "referencia" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "contribucion" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "titulo" => "A screening algorithm for diagnosing bacterial gastroenteritis by real-time PCR in combination with guided culture" "autores" => array:1 [ 0 => array:2 [ "etal" => false "autores" => array:5 [ 0 => "P.
