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

Not all Salmonella pose the same risk to public health. Based on the Highly Pathogenic Salmonella (HPS) concept developed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS), the BAX® System Real-Time PCR Assay for Highly Pathogenic Salmonella characterizes lysates prepared from poultry, beef, and pork enrichment cultures by detecting up to three virulence-associated genetic markers. These markers are linked to the Salmonella serotypes most frequently associated with human illness.

Designed for research and investigational applications, the assay provides insight into the virulence potential of Salmonella beyond traditional presence/absence testing.

With a convenient lyophilized format, internal positive control, and seamless integration into the BAX workflow, the assay is easy-to-use and provides results in under 90 minutes.

BAX® System Q7 - Real-Time PCR Workstation for Pathogen Detection and Confirmation

The BAX® System Q7 is a 96-well real-time PCR workstation designed for food safety laboratories that need fast, accurate, high-throughput pathogen detection. Automated result interpretation reduces manual curve review and helps standardize results across technicians and sites. 

Run both BAX® System and foodproof® assays on one instrument, while SureTrend® Food Safety Management Software synchronizes results across facilities for centralized reporting and trend analysis. 

Validated assays for Salmonella, Listeria, E. coli O157:H7, and a broad range of additional foodborne microorganisms support rapid molecular confirmation of presumptive positive screening results, helping laboratories begin investigations sooner, minimize unnecessary product holds, and make faster, more confident decisions.
