abstract = {Vibrio cholerae has caused severe outbreaks of cholera
worldwide with thousands of recorded deaths annually while the Staphylococcus
aureus is one of the most significant pathogens causing nosocomial and community-acquired
infections. Conventional detection methods for diagnosis of clinical samples,
water and food based on culture, microscopy and biochemical testing are limited
by the speed of detection, sensitivity and specificity, so it is necessary to
develop innovative molecular methods for the rapid detect the presence genes,
expression levels of the toxigenic and drug target genes in S. aureus
and V. cholerae using PCR, sequencing and membrane array. The genes studied
are SEA-SEJ (genes encoding S. aureus enterotoxins) ace, zot,
ctxA, ctxB, toxR (toxigenic genes of V. cholerae)
Sav1017 and AdaB (protein synthesis and DNA synthesis genes in
S. aureus. These techniques were carried out step by step with primers
designing, PCR amplification, sequencing and detection of expression by membrane
array. These assays are extremely robust, sensitive, specific and economical
and can be adapted to different throughputs. Thus, a rapid, sensitive and reliable
technique for detecting toxigenic genes of S. aureus and V. cholerae
was suc-cessfully developed.}
