BAX® System Q7 PCR Assays for E. coli O157:H7
E. coli O157:H7 testing kits and dozens of validated matrices.
Real-Time E.coli O157:H7 EXACT
E. coli O157:H7 is a recognized food-borne pathogen found in raw beef, produce, milk and many more matrices. It can cause serious and sometimes fatal illness at a very low infectious dose (as few as 10 CFU). The organism is often difficult to detect with traditional culture methods, especially where low levels of the target must be isolated from high levels of competing background flora. The BAX® System Q7 PCR assay E. coli O157:H7 Exact has greater specificity the our other E. coli O157:H7 kits.
Real-Time E. coli O157:H7
The BAX® System Q7 PCR assay for E. coli O157:H7 leverages the power of DNA-based technology to provide same-day results that are reliable and reproducible, allowing food producers and processors to quickly and accurately release safe products to the market.
E. coli O157:H7 MP
The multiplex BAX® System Q7 PCR assay E. coli O157:H7 MP has been fine-tuned to recognize not only standard but also new, unusual or modified varieties of E. coli O157:H7.
E. coli O157:H7 for BAX® System X5
The BAX® System X5 PCR Assay for E. coli O157:H7 is a quick and reliable method for detecting E. coli O157:H7 from ground beef, beef trim, raw meats, raw milk, vegetables, fruits and ready-to-eat meals. The BAX® X5 provides 32 wells in a smaller footprint... perfect for smaller lab setups.
