BALTIMORE - InstantLabs announced that its Listeria monocytogenes (L. mono) Food Safety Kit has received AOAC Performance Tested Methods certification for environmental and food matrices. The company also announced the release of new software with enhanced features which further simplify and streamline the food safety testing and reporting process.
The Hunter system is a real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) platform that provides rapid, affordable and accurate detection of pathogens, the company said. InstantLabs L. mono Food Safety Test Kit has been certified for the identification of L. mono in foods and environmental surfaces that are common carriers of the potentially lethal foodborne pathogen.
“We are excited to receive this AOAC certification, and look forward to developing more test kits to address the needs of the food industry,” said Steven Guterman, Chief Executive Officer of InstantLabs. “Our ongoing commitment to our customers led to the development of the latest version of the Hunter’s integrated software.
