Methods
- Rapid Optical Microbial Test System Finding Favor As Probiotic Test
-
Rapid optical system can detect conventional microbial contamination or presence of desired probiotic organisms.
- Demystifying the Microbial Testing Process
-
Your objective in taking samples and performing tests as well as knowing the limitations of the test you choose are all important for microbiological testing.
- Analyzing Acrylamide: A Focus on Food Carcinogens
-
Although most regulatory and scientific organizations have yet to conclude that acrylamide present a risk to human health, consumer fear is a business concern.
- A Summary Profile of Pathogen Detection Technologies
-
Pathogen testing is a key component and critical success factor in effective food safety and process control programs.
- The “M” in ICM: Using ATP to Evaluate Sanitation
-
The ATP-monitoring system is a new and exciting technology that shows great promise in aiding both the regulator and the retail food industry.
- LC/MS Analysis for Melamine and Cyanuric Acid in Foodstuffs
-
FDA scientists and others realized that the combination of melamine and cyanuric acid in the diet was a significant health hazard.
- Chasing “Zero” in Chemical Contaminant Analysis
-
Over time, the food industry approaches a smaller “zero” tolerance for chemical contamination.
- Forging New Tools in Predictive Microbiology
-
An interview with Mark L. Tamplin, Ph.D., USDA-ARS Eastern Regional Research Center, showcases new tools for microbiology testing.
- Best Practices in Refrigerated Foods Processing
-
Food retailers, foodservice operators and consumers who purchase refrigerated, ready-to-eat foods are more aware of—and more demanding about—food safety than ever before.
- Going with the Lateral Flow: Advances in Accuracy and Speed
-
Advances in the lateral flow immunoassay technique for food samples is a prime example of good science made better by improving connections between the building blocks of the method.
- New-Generation ELFA Technology Pushes Scientific Frontier
-
While ground-breaking at its inception, advancements in ELFA technology just keep pushing the technology forward.
- The New Blue Plate Special: Advances in Chromogenic Media
-
The development of selective chromogenic media is arguably one of the first rapid microbiological methods developed for use in the food industry.
- PCR Offers Real-Time Realities
-
Any intervention strategy must include a pathogen detection program in which the goal is to cull contaminated product prior to moving down the food production chain.
- Acrylamide: Out of the Frying Pan and into the Fire (of Analytical Chaos)
-
Food testing shows the presence of acrylamide in various concentrations in most prepared foods, mainly those containing proteins, carbohydrates and fat, which are exposed to heat.
- Microbiological Sampling in the Dry Foods Processing Environment
-
Dry processing environments are more likely to develop problems from yeast and mold contamination than from other microbes.
- Real-Time PCR Provides Product Recall Prevention
-
Advances in real-time PCR methods for pathogen screening and identification can circumvent costly recall events.
- Color-Coded Colonies Make Test Reading a Breeze
-
Listeria contamination is an issue that can never totally be conquered.
- Rapid Micro is Key to Rapid, Safe Food Production
-
If you can save time, you can make more product and sell more product every day. But that product also has to be safe when it leaves the food plant.
- 14 QA Mistakes Made by Food Labs
-
The number one quality assurance (QA) mistake that food testing laboratories make is not having enough training for new employees.
