Foodborne Pathogens

A pathogen is a synonym for a disease-causing microorganism. Food pathogens represent a special form of microbial pathogens, which are picked up and spread through food.
Below a number of pathogens are listed, for which BIOTECON Diagnostics offers suitable foodproof® DNA extraction and real-time PCR detection kits. Many of the pathogen kits have been certified by recognized institutions such as AOAC-RI, MicroVal or NordVal (see licensing options / validations), and thus independently tested for quality and safety.

Salmonella are rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacteria. The genus Salmonella is assigned to the family Enterobacteriaceae. They cause disease in humans and animals, including typhoid fever and diarrhea. Infection commonly occurs through ingestion of contaminated food, typically eggs and poultry.
