A direct test for the presumptive detection of Pathogenic Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria ivanovii from food contact and other environmental surfaces using colour change (chromogenic) technology.
Includes Polystyrene shaft (breakpoint) with Pre-moistened (with Neutralising Buffer) Foam Tip Swab. Campden BRI validated. Recommended for food contact and environmental surfaces sampling only.
- Chromogenic detection of Pathogenic Listeria from food contact and other environmental surfaces
- Ideal for detecting pathogenic Listeria from surfaces.
- Pack size: 81
SwabSURE ListeriaP easily differentiates between pathogenic Listeria (L. monocytogenes & L.ivanovii) from commensal L. innocua using specific substrate technology.
Listeria P also inhibits other background microorganisms such as Bacillus spp., Enterococcus spp., Micrococcus spp and Gram-negative organisms like Klebsiella spp and E.coli.
Known Limitations:
Restricted use for the presumptive detection of pathogenic Listeria from food contact and environmental surfaces. It is recommended food contact areas are rinsed, removed or discarded after sampling. No other uses are authorised. Biosynth patent protection by WO98/38332.
Shelf Life: 12 months
Sterilisation Method: Gamma Irradiation to achieve a SAL of 10-6
