Root Cause Analysis in the Food Industry

A contamination raises many questions. You need to know what it is, where it comes from, and what to do. Fueled by our Augmented Diagnostics approach, bioMérieux helps you find the origin of a contaminating microorganism, characterize it as a specific or non-specific strain, and compare it with control strains or other strains present elsewhere in the environment. The ultimate objective? Prevent food recalls, preserve your brand image, and save costs due to recurring contamination.

Until recently, scraps and waste were an accepted expense due to a lack of accessible data and tools to understand why contamination occurred. Today, bioMérieux proposes a comprehensive approach that enhances your knowledge to attack the root cause, rather than just managing symptoms.

Having problems with recurring pathogens? Our AUGMENTED-DX PORTAL is the Investigation Hub of Tomorrow, bringing cutting-edge genomics, data science, and bioinformatics to your fingertips. As an all-in-one portal for investigation results, it provides access and analysis of your data through the GENE-UP® TYPER and GENOMICS apps. Gain more insight into the pathogen contaminations present in your facility and make impactful decisions.
