3m Molecular Detection Assay Salmonella

Monday, 14 January, 2013 | Supplied by: 3M Safety & Industrial Business Group


The 3M Molecular Detection Assay Salmonella is one of three pathogen detection test kits available alongside the 3M Molecular Detection System.

The 3M Molecular Detection System and its assays provide food processing businesses, third-party laboratories, universities and government agencies a rapid, qualitative method to easily and accurately detect pathogens in enriched food and food process samples.

The Salmonella assay has been granted PTMSM certification by the AOAC Research Institute and has also received an NF VALIDATION mark from AFNOR Certification.

To obtain NF VALIDATION certification for egg, meat and dairy food products (excluding milk powders), performances of the 3M Molecular Detection Assay Salmonella for those products were validated in comparison with results of the ISO 6579 worldwide standard for detecting Salmonella spp. The NF VALIDATION study was done according to ISO 16140 standard.

An expert laboratory initially confirmed the technology’s effectiveness versus the reference method. Subsequently, 18 different labs spanning seven countries conducted collaborative testing to confirm method robustness. Additional NF VALIDATION studies of the Salmonella assay on seafood and vegetables as well as processing environment samples are anticipated in 2013.
