24-Hour Listeria Environmental Testing

Warnex has launched a one-step 24-hour test to detect Listeria species in environmental samples, which is now exclusively available in the UK from microbiology experts Don Whitley Scientific.

With only a single enrichment step, it simplifies the environmental swab testing procedure and provides results in just 24 as opposed to 48 hours. Pathogen testing plays an extremely important role in monitoring the environmental conditions of food processing plants, where samples are swabbed from processing equipment, walls, ceilings and floors of the plant. 75% of all pathogen tests performed in the dairy industry are on environmental samples.

Warnex's genomics-based technology offers a versatile detection platform that rapidly produces accurate results using real-time PCR technology combined with unique genetic markers and software.
