BAX® System SalQuant
A Method to Quantify Salmonella
In addition to knowing if Salmonella is present, Hygiena is pioneering diagnostics with the ability to quantify Salmonella at critical control points using BAX® Q7 and our BAX® System Real-Time Salmonella Assay.
This data is used to monitor levels of Salmonella and identify changes over time, enabling plant managers to utilize data to track Salmonella problem areas for rapid corrective action.
SalQuant vs MPN
BAX® System SalQuant is used to monitor levels of Salmonella and identify changes over time and provides same day actionable results.
This method provides a more accurate and precise estimation of Salmonella when compared
to Most Probable Number (MPN) methods, which don't quantify levels of bacteria and can't determine where contamination may be located.
Pinpoint Salmonella Problem Areas
Quantifying Salmonella at critical control points helps identify the source of contamination at any step of production.
