Food Safety
Fast control of Salmonella in the food industry
The Challenge
Traditional food testing for Salmonella can take up to 24 to 48 hours, causing massive warehousing bottlenecks, delaying product release, and reducing shelf life. Furthermore, thermal or chemical interventions often leave dead cells that cause costly false positives in standard DNA tests.
The TAAG Solution
Powered by our revolutionary AiGOR technology, this solution targets metabolically active RNA to detect Salmonella in complex food matrices in a fraction of the time. It differentiates live cells from dead ones seamlessly.
Core Impact
9 Hours
Key Results:
- Same-Day Positive Release: Cut holding times drastically with results in just 9 hours.
- Live Cell Differentiation: RNA-based detection avoids false positives caused by dead cells.
- Complex Matrix Ready: Highly robust against inhibitors found in chocolate related matrices.
- Maximum Sensitivity: Consistently detect down to 1 CFU/sample.
