Assays That Support a Safer Global Food Supply Chain

Assays That Support a Safer Global Food Supply Chain

Food safety testing assays that support a safer, more transparent global food supply. From pathogen detection in raw meat to allergen screening in processed foods, our point-of-care diagnostics and lateral flow kits help food producers, labs, and inspectors detect contaminants early before they threaten consumer health or brand integrity.

As a trusted CDMO with expertise in custom assay development, regulatory validation, and GMP-compliant manufacturing, we offer food safety solutions that are fast, cost-effective, and tailored to your exact testing environment.

Food Safety Testing Capabilities

We design and manufacture assays to detect a wide range of foodborne hazards.

Pathogen Detection

  • Salmonella (lateral flow & molecular formats).
  • E. coli (lateral flow & molecular).
  • Verotoxin-producing E. coli (ELISA).
  • Norovirus, Listeria, and Staphylococcus.

Allergen & Adulterant Detection

  • Gliadin for gluten intolerance.
  • Residual sanitizers and pesticide screening.
  • Chemical additives or breakdown products.

Environmental & Surface Testing

  • Swab kits for testing conveyor belts, prep surfaces, and storage containers.
  • Validation for transport media and enrichment buffers.

Sample Matrices We Support

Our assays are engineered to perform in diverse and complex food and environmental matrices. Whether you’re testing fresh protein, ready-to-eat items, or production environments, we create assays that maintain performance where it matters most.

Raw beef, chicken, and pork

Baked goods (e.g., wheat bread)

Dairy products and processed foods

Environmental swabs and rinse water

Dry media and packaging materials
