BAX® System Real-time PCR Assay for Highly Pathogenic Salmonella

The BAX® System Q7 is a real-time PCR workstation engineered for food safety laboratories requiring accurate, high-throughput pathogen detection. This 96-well system delivers automated result interpretation through certified algorithms, eliminating manual curve verification. Food production facilities, contract labs, and regulatory agencies benefit from dual-platform compatibility, running both BAX® System and foodproof® assay portfolios. SureTrend® Cloud connectivity enables real-time data synchronization across facilities. With intelligent error detection and validated assays for Salmonella, Listeria, and E. coli O157:H7, the Q7 ensures reliable food safety testing.

The Hygiena Prep Xpress is a compact automated liquid handling system designed for food safety lab automation and high-throughput pathogen detection workflows. This versatile pipetting station eliminates manual errors and reduces technician fatigue during BAX System sample preparation, including reagent dispensing, serial dilutions, and PCR setup automation. Featuring air displacement pipetting with 1.0% CV accuracy, intelligent liquid level detection, and an integrated camera for verified deck loading, the Prep Xpress delivers consistent, reproducible results. Its flexible configuration supports two independent channels or an 8-probe head to match fluctuating sample volumes, while user-replaceable components minimize downtime.
