Filed: 1993-03-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for collecting trees with the aid of a tree felling machine comprising an upper and a lower gripping tool 3,4 and a cutting device 14 mounted on a frame 2. The machine is made to approach the first tree with both its gripping tools 3,4 open, after which the tree is embraced by the gripping tools closing on it, followed by a cutting action. The machine is then driven to another tree. With each new tree after the first one, the lower gripping tool 4 is opened to receive the new tree while the previously felled tree is held tight only by the upper gripping tool 3. The lower gripping tool 4 is then closed around the tree whilst the new tree is pressed against the outside of the upper gripping tool 3. The upper gripping tool is then opened, and all the trees are held by both gripping tools. During this opening movement of the upper gripping tool 3, each tree after the first one is moved backward, i.e. in the direction away from the new tree relative to the lower gripping tool 4. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides methods for the rapid determination/detection of Salmonella in samples from sources such as processed and raw foods and feeds, the environment, body fluids and biopsies, etc. The methods comprise an enrichment step and a determination step. The enrichment procedure involves selective conditions, notably the use of the selective substances tetrathionate and/or novobiocin or an increase in culturing temperature to 39-43  DEG C, favouring the early detection of Salmonella. The selective conditions are instituted as early as possible in the enrichment, thereby allowing an early determination of high specificity and sensitivity. The determination involves a variety of assays which are all different from traditional agar plating techniques. Also provided are special enrichment procedures for Salmonella in processed products, i.e. products which have been heat-treated, dried, cured, acidified etc.. In general, determination/detection of Salmonella can be performed within 24 hours from the institution of enrichment.
