VIP Gold for Salmonella lateral flow device

Click2Contact

Salmonella spp. is a bacterium that has been one of the most frequently reported causes of foodborne illnesses in humans. Rapid and accurate detection of Salmonella in foods and the food-processing environment is important to avoid putting products on the market that could cause outbreaks of salmonellosis.

VIP Gold for Salmonella is a lateral flow device that uses proprietary antibodies, with high specificity to antigens of Salmonella species. These reagents are configured in a single-use device that will produce a visible line in the presence of Salmonella.

A simple next-day enrichment protocol has been developed for the VIP Gold for Salmonella to improve the time-to-results and laboratory workflow. The new protocol has been thoroughly validated and has received AOAC certification. Results are read visually, and no specialised equipment is required to run the assay or interpret the results. Furthermore, the amount of hands-on time involved is less than most automated methods.
