SureTect Features
The SureTect PCR System – OMIC USA’s choice for reliable, robust foodborne pathogen detection
After reviewing several PCR solutions for foodborne pathogen testing, OMIC selected the Thermo Scientific SureTect PCR System for its laboratories' pathogen testing, favoring its robust, efficient workflow, compatibility with a wide range of matrices, and strong performance during validation.
Visible selective enrichment of Salmonella and Cronobacter species
In your busy Salmonella and Cronobacter testing workflows, there is no time for error. A common mistake, particularly in high throughout laboratories, is the accidental omission or duplication of adding a selective supplement during sample preparation. For clearer selective enrichment of food samples, the new Thermo Scientific Oxoid PrecisBlue Supplement has been specifically designed to reduce workflow errors. The addition of an inert blue dye provides a clear visual reference, enabling easy identification of supplemented samples.
