Continued Investment into Food PCR Testing from Thermo Fisher Scientific
As a microbiologist, you understand the importance of precision and efficiency in pathogen detection. In food and beverage testing laboratories, ensuring the safety and quality of products is crucial, particularly for fast-paced, high throughput laboratory environments
The Thermo Scientific™ SureTect™ PCR System is designed to address these needs, offering a streamlined and reliable rapid solution for pathogen detection whether you are running manual or automated PCR (Read more about choosing the right option for your laboratory). The SureTect PCR System is AFNOR validated according to ISO 16140-2:2016 and AOAC certified.
- Single Enrichment Step: Faster time-to-result with short enrichment protocols for specific matrices and a streamlined workflow.
- Universal PCR Conditions: Detect multiple targets in the same run using an open PCR platform.
- Automated Data Analysis: The RapidFinder™ Analysis Software with multiple algorithms provides fully automated, detection, data collection, and interpretation.
“The SureTect PCR System is very easy to use and reliable, which makes both daily use and training new employees simple and quick, even as new assays are added. It also has very few indeterminate results or inhibition results, so the number of reruns required is very low.” Peter Kahn, Group Leader of the Bioanalytical Department at OMIC USA.

With the Thermo Scientific™ SureTect™ Automation Workflow, high throughput laboratories have been achieving unprecedented levels of efficiency and accuracy. Utilizing the CyBio FeliX Instrument to automate lysis and PCR preparation, the platform reduces hands-on time and enhances the accuracy of testing processes. This allows laboratory technicians to focus on other critical tasks, creating a more productive laboratory.
Customization options, such as the Flex Package and Decontamination Unit, enable laboratories to maximize operational control, ensuring efficiency and maintaining cleaning and decontamination processes with minimal manual intervention.
- Time-Saving: Fully automated lysis and PCR setup with a rapid 5-minute setup time for loading reagents.
- Accuracy and Traceability: Enhanced pipetting accuracy minimizes the risk of human error. Barcoded sample entry ensures full traceability.
- Flexibility: Manage up to 6 different assays and up to 96 samples in a single run. Choose from full or partial plate processing an automate lysis, PCR setup, or the complete workflow.
- Control: Enhanced control over operational costs with the optional Flex Package to eliminate consumables waste and the UV-Decontamination Unit to eliminate cross-contamination.
"Our main concern was cross-contamination between samples, so we really challenged the system in that perspective. It passed all our tests successfully." Raul Mesa, Quality and Food Safety Manager for Coca Cola Europacific Partners (Read the full case study).
In a world where food safety and quality are non-negotiable, the SureTect Automation Workflow empowers you to deliver precise and reliable results faster than ever before, ensuring the highest standards for your products.
