Forensic Food Analysis
Bacterial and Viral Food Testing
CBI Food analysis service offers technical consulting and a full array of bacterial and viral testing including Mycoplasma and Hepatitis A. CBI has initiated a rapid and sensitive food safety-testing platform to detect pathogens in foods and production facilities. Currently, at CBI we use PCR-based kits combined with the latest in microbiological and molecular biological assays to monitor and improve the continued safety of the nation's food supply.
We can help answer three questions:
- Is the background level of microorganisms in your food a cause for worry?
- Are there any specific pathogens present in your foodstuffs?
- Is the source of food the likely cause of food poisoning .
