According to the company, the GENE-UP TYPER SLM assay specifically targets S. enterica, the subspecies most commonly associated with human salmonellosis and foodborne illness.
MagnaFlow is a new automated inline washwater analyzer that provides continuous, real-time visibility into the microbial loads present in post-harvest wash systems.
The detection system was able to detect the presence of foodborne pathogens in complex food matrices as little as three hours with 0 percent false positives, 94 percent recall, and 100 percent precision.
Automating the full pathogen detection workflow into a single device, the test can be operated with the press of a button and is designed for onsite use by non-specialists.
Bio-Rad Laboratories’ new EZ-Check Salmonella Kit is a rapid, polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based detection method for Salmonella in food and environmental matrices.
The new GENE-UP® TYPER solution from bioMérieux combines a PCR pathogen detection assay with a machine learning-based web application, facilitating root cause analysis of contamination incidents in the food industry.
Researchers have developed a 3D-printed, microfluidic chip sensor that uses light to rapidly detect important foodborne pathogens at concentrations as low as 10 CFU/ml.
bioMérieux's GENE-UP® Pathogenic Escherichia coli assay has been selected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service’s (USDA’s FSIS’) Field Service Laboratories as the primary method for Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) detection.
Primerdesign recently launched its new genesig® Easy_oys Detection Kit for Norovirus in oysters, a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assay capable of producing results onsite in as little as four hours.
