20-minute quick learning: detection of Listeria monocytogenes according to international standards

Listeria is a widespread microorganism in nature and Listeria monocytogenes is one of the most harmful pathogens which can cause serious foodborne illnesses and infections. It is therefore crucial to test food products and lab environments for Listeria monocytogenes. The testing workflow is regulated by international organizations to ensure consumer safety. But how can you stay compliant with these regulatory standards and ensure the most accurate results? We will walk you through the Listeria monocytogenes testing workflow according to ISO 11290, FDA-BAM and USDA-FSIS, and show you our solutions which will help you to stay compliant.
