RapidFinder Salmonella species, Typhimurium and Enteritidis Multiplex PCR Kit

Enhance the detection and differentiation of various Salmonella species, including Salmonella ser. Typhimurium and Salmonella ser. Enteritidis, with the Thermo Scientific™ RapidFinder™ Salmonella Species, Typhimurium and Enteritidis Multiplex PCR Kit. This advanced kit enables you to rapidly identify and distinguish these Salmonella strains in a single test.

With this kit, you can confidently ensure accuracy and expedite product release, as it provides results in as little as 16 hours. The workflows for testing poultry and pork meats, as well as production environment samples, have been validated, ensuring reliable and consistent outcomes.

To further streamline your testing process, the RapidFinder™ kit is compatible with the Applied Biosystems™ 7500 Fast Real-Time PCR System or Applied Biosystems™ QuantStudio™ 5 Food Safety Real-Time PCR System. These systems offer high-performance capabilities and are designed specifically for food safety applications.

Increase your workflow efficiency while meeting regulatory requirements to detect the most common Salmonella serovars which cause disease in humans with the RapidFinder Salmonella Species, Typhimurium and Enteritidis Multiplex PCR Kit.

The new RapidFinder assay kit incorporates color-coded plastics with orientation markings and breakable strip format, colored reagents and pierceable seals to enable an optimized workflow for maximum laboratory efficiency and productivity.

The real-time PCR kit enables rapid, simultaneous detection and presumptive identification of Salmonella species, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Enteritidis in a single well, with AFNOR (ISO 16140-2:2016) and AOAC-RI validated workflows on a range of matrices including raw and ready-to-eat poultry and pork meat and food production environment samples.

Benefit from:

• Faster decisions -  Earlier product release (negative results) and quicker interventions (positive results) due to simultaneous detection (three tests in one) and a reduced time-to-result compared with culture methods.
• Cost reductions - Up to 50% consumable cost savings compared with running individual PCR tests for Salmonella species, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Enteritidis.
  
• Increased efficiency -  Save valuable technician time with single, non-proprietary enrichment, ready-to-use reagents, simple sample preparation, and simultaneous identification.

The RapidFInder System is an optimized solution combining speed and performance in an easy-to-use, cost-effective platform—giving you results you can trust.
