Your First Line of Defense Against Spoilage
Spoilers are organisms (that are not pathogens) that cause an organoleptic change that makes a product undesirable or unacceptable for consumption. Spoilers like Alicyclobacillus bacteria, Pseudomonas, yeast, Rhodotorula spores, Saccharomyces, mold, various Penicillium species, and Mucor can degrade food quality and shelf life by impacting taste, smell, appearance, and texture. It’s important to have a comprehensive testing plan for spoilers for brand protection and cost savings.
Rapid and accurate detection of spoilage organisms throughout the production process is essential to prevent costly issues, such as:
- Detecting spoilage too late, leading to product waste and financial loss
- Failing to detect spoilage before products reach consumers, resulting in severe brand damage and reputational harm
- Lengthy detection times, increasing inventory levels and overall costs
bioMérieux's spoilage detection solutions are part of our Augmented Diagnostics approach, enabling comprehensive screening of spoilage organisms all along the production process (raw materials, semi-finished, finished products) while providing actionable insights.
Our Augmented Diagnostics is an innovative new approach to food safety & quality, combining cutting-edge microbial testing technologies (including Microbiology and Molecular Biology) with the latest Genomics and Data Science methodologies, as well as an innovative spirit and industry experts.
Ensure consistency and stay ahead of emerging risks with a complete, end-to-end approach to food safety and quality.
