摘要

Molecular methods such as polymerase chain reaction enable the detection and characterization of pathogens at a low concentration. The quality of food processing and products is important for animal and human health and marketing. Bacterial toxins are hazards on food products causing foodborne outbreaks around the globe. This chapter outlines the method used for the detection of bacterial toxins from food products at a molecular level.
