Presentation transcript:

PulseNet tracks foodborne illness like the FBI tracks criminals.

The scientist takes bacterial cells from an agar plate.

The scientist mixes bacterial cells with melted agarose (which is like gelatin) before DNA is extracted from them. The extracted DNA is cut with special enzymes that recognize specific DNA sequences.

The scientist loads the DNA gelatin plug into a gel, and places it in an electric field that separates DNA fragments according to their size.

The gel is stained so that DNA can be seen under ultraviolet (UV) light. A digital camera takes a photograph of the gel and stores the picture in the computer.

PulseNet uses computer software to compare this DNA fingerprint picture with others. The computer software compares DNA fingerprints from many samples in the database.

Scientists at state or local public health departments enter patterns of DNA fingerprints into an electronic database. These patterns are transmitted to CDC and filed in CDC’s main PulseNet computer. If patterns from different labs match, the PulseNet team will alert all involved PulseNet labs of a possible foodborne outbreak.
