The Challenge

Today’s conventional diagnostic kits are not suitable for the food processing industry’s complexity and fast pace environment. These methods fall short with regards to speed, ease of use, and cost. Also, essential attributes such as specificity and sensitivity do not meet the desired requirements to prevent and control food pathogens effectively. In many cases, budgets limit the number of tests that could monitor the sheer number of potential contamination hotspots. Logistics are complex because only trained staff can do the sophisticated analysis. Often, it takes external laboratories days to come back with results. And last but not least, food producers rely on someone else’s skills and interpretation before they can take action.
