Why take Microbiological Food Test at AMMAGENOMICS?
We at AMMAGENOMICS have developed our own rapid, high-throughput PCR tests to detect food pathogens and the results are obtained in a quick turnaround time. We test for Salmonella, Shigella, Escherichia coli, Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium perfringens, Yersinia, Vibrio cholerae, V. vulnificus, V. parahaemolyticus, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus spp., Listeria, rotaviruses, noroviruses, adenoviruses, hepatitis A viruses, astroviruses, hepatitis A viruses, Cryptosporidium parvum, Cyclospora cayetanensis, Giardia lamblia, Toxoplasma gondii, G. lamblia, and Cryptosporidium to name a few.
In most food testing labs, these pathogens are detected using a conventional microbiological method which involves comprehensive, laborious, and time-consuming testing procedures and the results take several days to weeks. But at AMMAGENOMICS with our advanced technology, we give the results in a few hours. Detection of these pathogens is very important for health and also for food safety. These pathogens are found in meat, poultry, dairy products, packaged foods, beverages, agricultural products, seafood, fermented food, contaminated food, etc.
