Keep up to speed with microbiological analysis

 As rapid testing techniques become more widely used in food microbiology labs as part of the industry’s drive to produce faster, more accurate results, so new technologies and approaches for detection, enumeration and identification of microorganisms are being developed. In order to keep the food industry up to date on the latest developments, Campden BRI is holding a seminar on 11 June that will feature some of the most interesting trends.
“The development of rapid methods for food microbiological analysis is very important, as most products that require analysing have a short shelf life, and a result within hours rather than days can significantly improve the assurance of food safety,” explains event director Leonie Watson. “As well as an overview of current rapid method technologies and presentations on a variety of new and emerging methods, we will also be considering method validation. This is particularly important as any new method produced, as well as speeding up the whole analytical process, must be shown to be at least as accurate as current standard methods. In addition, there will be an exhibition from rapid method kit manufacturers to illustrate some of the trends featured in the seminar.”
