Reflects ongoing savings from a strategy included in the Governor's October 2016 Savings Plan, which adopts pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) in place of conventional and molecular methods for Salmonella serotyping. PFGE is already performed on all Salmonella for DNA fingerprinting and has recently shown to be a serotyping tool for most serotypes of Salmonella, eliminating the need for conventional and molecular serotyping. |
