The BAX System Real-Time PCR Assay for Genus Listeria enables food processors and laboratories to detect Listeria species in food and environmental samples with reliable results in approximately 70 minutes after enrichment. This AOAC-RI validated and AFNOR-certified assay detects concentrations as low as 10⁴ CFU/mL, offering sensitivity comparable to culture methods but with significantly faster time-to-results. Compatible with various enrichment protocols and validated for multiple food matrices including frankfurters, spinach, shrimp, and environmental surfaces, this PCR-based solution streamlines pathogen testing workflows.
