For safer food – BIOTECON Diagnostics –simply builds up trust!Clostridium botulinum is a rod-shaped, anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium capable
of inducing foodborne botulism when consumed in contaminated food. From the
eight different toxin types A to H, only A, B, E and F are known to cause disease in
humans. Improperly preserved foods, such as canned goods or pickled fish, are the
most common form of contracting foodborne botulism. C. botulinum is a naturally
occurring soil bacterium. Thus, it can potentially contaminate food at multiple stages
within the production process, including honey and milk.
The foodproof ® Clostridium botulinum Detection LyoKit is based on real-time PCR
technology, which is well-established in the food industry as a highly sensitive and
specific detection method. The kit detects and identifies all of the human disease-
causing toxin types (A, B, E and F) in one multiplex PCR assay using melting curve
analysis. This method is a superior alternative to other assays, including mouse
bioassay.
Fast: Real-time PCR method, based on
ISO/TS 17919.
Safe: Prevention of false-negative results
by internal control and prevention of
carry-over contamination using Uracil-N-
Glycosylase.
Comprehensive: Packages of sample
preparation & detection kits, real-time
PCR instruments & diagnostic software.
Easy: Convenient, complete solution
including DNA extraction and real-time
PCR analysis.
Experienced: Manufacturer of PCR-
based rapid tests for the food industry
since 1998 with an ISO 17025 accredited
service lab.
Licensed: Fully licensed technology.
