Salmonella, a Gram-negative bacilli, is estimated to cause one million foodborne illnesses in the United States each year. In order to ensure our food and water are safe for consumption, rapid and reliable detection methods are critical.

A recent review summarizes the advances made towards faster detection of Salmonella from food and environmental sources. Molecular methods such as qPCR, whole genome sequencing and metagenomics are now emerging as the methods of choice because they are rapid and reliable.

Thermometric titration is fast, simple to use, rugged, versatile and unique.
In thermometric titration, the temperature change during a chemical reaction is used for the endpoint detection. This temperature change takes place only while the titrant reacts with the analyte. This makes endpoint detection very easy!
Consequently, the thermometric titrator is the ideal solution for difficult samples with complex matrices that cannot be titrated potentiometrically.

IDEXX Colilert-18/Quanti-Tray Test Becomes the New ISO Standard 9308-2:2012

Animal Sciences / Nutrition & Food Sciences / Agro...

IDEXX announces that its Colilert®-18/Quanti-Tray® test becomes the new International Organization for Standardization (ISO) worldwide standard for detecting total coliforms and E. coli in water. The Organization has withdrawn ISO 9308-2:1990, which follows the multiple tube (most probable number) method, and replaced it with ISO 9308-2:2012 using the Colilert-18/Quanti-Tray method.
