XiSafeä Pathogen Testing Features 8–12 Hour Test Times
Xibus Systems Inc. has announced the development of XiSafeä, a solution for the rapid detection of pathogenic bacteria in food and beverages. Xibus is creating its new technology in light of the costliness of pathogen testing, as well as the food waste and fatalities caused by microbial contaminants. At present, Xibus is seeking interested customers for a demonstration of XiSafeä.
According to Xibus, current food bacterial testing—including modern, “rapid” methods—still involve a relatively slow process, requiring a day or more to produce results. However, XiSafeä will feature a much faster pathogen testing process through the integration of molecular engineering, nanotechnology, and AI, with test times ranging from 8–12 hours depending on the organism and food matrix. Additionally, XiSafeä is a total system, designed for high-throughput testing conducted by food and beverage producers, processors, and users.
