The RapidChek SELECT Salmonella enteritidis (SE) test system from SDIX has earned Performance-Tested Methods (PTM) certification from the AOAC Research Institute. The AOAC PTM certification validates RapidChek SELECT SE as equivalent to the FDA methodology for detecting SE in poultry house environments and pooled eggs. The SDIX test performs significantly faster than the FDA’s Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM) method, yielding results for environmental samples and eggs in only two days. The certification also demonstrated RapidChek SELECT’s equivalency to the USDA-FSIS’ method for testing poultry meat products as performed on chicken carcass rinses.
