The BAX System PCR Assay for E. coli O157:H7 MP delivers fast, reliable detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in food samples, with results in just 3.5 hours after enrichment. This AOAC-RI and AFNOR-validated assay detects concentrations as low as 10⁴ cfu/mL in raw meat, raw milk, fruits, vegetables, and ready-to-eat foods. Using advanced PCR technology, the test provides accurate yes/no results comparable to culture methods but significantly faster. Food processors and testing laboratories can integrate this automated solution into their quality assurance programs for enhanced food safety testing efficiency.
