Applied Biosystems

Detecting threatening pathogens in materials ranging from environmental samples to food and finished products requires rapid, reliable solutions. The Applied Biosystems Food Pathogen Detection System provides the speed, simplicity, and accuracy that only DNA-based detection can provide.

Complete Solution
Designed for food safety testing, the Applied Biosystems Food Pathogen Detection System offers the best that real-time PCR has to offer for automated, genetic-based pathogen detection, including instrumentation, ready-to-use detection kits, and software. Detection kits are available for the following organisms:

Campylobacter jejuni
E. coli O157:H7
E.sakazakii
Listeria monocytogenes
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Salmonella enterica
Staphylococcus aureus

These kits are based on universal assay conditions, enabling you to run any combination of these assays together in the same sample run.

Now you can:

Reduce sample handling with a software-guided, 5-step process that uses a single, closed-tube format during the PCR step.
Minimize the risk of cross-contamination with special reaction tubes that remain closed throughout the amplification
Detect 1-10 copies of the target DNA per reaction-down to 1 colony forming unit in 25 grams of food
Get your results quickly with time to results in less than 4 hours after sample enrichment
