Technical Data Sheet

Specio 4.1 Salmonella spp., L. monocytogenes, E. coli and S. aureus

PI-656-02 Rev. 1 - May. 27, 2026

Real-time PCR with melting curve - KAiMelting Curve AnalysisPathogens
TargetsSalmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes
Main industriesConfectionery, Dairy, Egg Products, Fresh & Processed Produce, Meat and Poultry, Pet Food & Animal Feed, Ready-to-eat, Sauces and condiments, Seafood
SensitivityFood sample: 1 CFU/25 g Surface sample: 1 CFU/ per sample

Intended Use

Qualitative detection and identification of Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytogenes in samples of ¼ Pound Hamburger, Traditional Ham, Swiss Chard, Avocado Chicken Pasta Salad, Low-Calorie Bowl, Tuna Salad, Basil Quifaros, Lyonnaise Potatoes, Water-Based Ice Cream, Cauliflower Salad, Milk, Yogurt-Based Ice Cream, Chacra Cheese Pasta Salad, Muffin Chips Chocolate, Regular Pichanga, Cucumber Salad, Muffin Chocolate, Chicken Piece, Chocolate Chip Muffin, Nutrasure Advance Vanilla, Individual Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Muffin, Whole Oregano, Italian Shredded Beef Sandwich, Chilean Style Pork Shoulder, Pasteurized Liquid Egg, Pork Shoulder, Colonial Ham, Pasteurized Liquid Yolk, Chilean Style Pork Shoulder, Cooked Turkey Ham, Chicken Avocado Pasta Salad, Inert Surfaces, Free-Range Chicken, Pasta Salad with Chacra Cheese, Live Surfaces, Grilled Ham, Pork Shoulder, 3% Tartare, Hamburger, Premium Whole Grain Sandwich, Spinach, Italian Hot Dog, Pumpkin Sorrentino, Special Burrito, Italian Roast Beef, Quinoa Salad with Shrimp, Swiss Chard, Ham Leg, Salmon Ceviche, Tuna Salad, Grilled Ham, Sausage, Serrano Ham, Sweet & Sour Sauce. AOAC-validated matrices Stainless steel surface samples, pasteurized 2% fat liquid milk and leafy green (lettuce).

Intended for use in food safety laboratories, microbiological laboratories of low or high complexity, and food production facilities.

Key Advantages

  • Simultaneous detection of 4 critical targets.
  • AOAC Performance Tested Research Institute Certification.
  • Seamless integration with TxA platform for automatic interpretation.

Principle

Detection is performed through multiplex real-time PCR followed by melting curve analysis. During this process, PCR amplicons are gradually denatured as temperature increases, generating characteristic melting profiles based on sequence-specific thermal stability. These profiles enable the differentiation of microorganisms by comparing their unique melting curve signatures, which are automatically interpreted by TxA software.
