BioMérieux has been granted AOAC Research Institute approval for its TEMPO® BC, an automated quality indicator test for the fast enumeration of Bacillus cereus group bacteria in food products. AOAC third-party validation provides food professionals with added assurance for high-performance testing standards.
According to the company, TEMPO BC provides automated results in 22 to 27 hours, which enables food manufacturers to release their products into the supply chain much earlier than when testing with traditional methods.
