Salmonella species testing solutions, including S.Typhimurium, S. Enteritidis and S.Infantis

The detection of Salmonella in foods before they are consumed is vital for safeguarding public health, and essential for preserving the financial health and reputation of food businesses. Testing options include the ISO, USDA, and FDA reference methods and alternative, validated, and certified Thermo Scientific methods.


Reference methods

ISO 6579-1:2017 Standard Method

A culture media-based standard reference method cited in Commission Regulation (EC) No 2073/2005 and other national regulations and guidelines.

FDA BAM Chapter 5 - Salmonella Culture Method

A culture media-based standard reference method cited in the U.S Food & Drug Administration Bacteriological Analytical Manual.

USDA FSIS MLG 4.15 - Isolation and Identification of Salmonella - Rapid Screening Salmonella Test Standard Method

A culture-media based standard reference method cited in the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) Microbiology Laboratory Guidebook (MLG) Method Number 4.15.


PCR-based rapid methods

Thermo Scientific SureTect Salmonella species PCR Assay Method

A rapid real-time PCR method for the enrichment, detection and confirmation of Salmonella species in food, feed products and primary production samples (PPS).

Thermo Scientific SureTect Salmonella species, Typhimurium and Enteritidis Multiplex PCR Assay Method

A rapid method for the enrichment, detection and confirmation of Salmonella species, Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Enteritidis in raw pork and poultry, ready-to-eat and ready-to-reheat pork and poultry, production environment samples and primary production samples (PPS). 

Thermo Scientific SureCount Salmonella Species, Typhimurium and Enteritidis Multiplex PCR Assay Method

A rapid method for the detection, quantification and differentiation of Salmonella species, Salmonella Typhimurium, and Salmonella Enteritidis in meat, poultry, and pork samples. 

Thermo Scientific SureTect Salmonella Infantis PCR Method

Designed specifically for Salmonella Infantis control programs in poultry production, the SureTect Salmonella Infantis PCR Assay, in combination with the SureTect Salmonella Multiplex PCR Assay, offers a complete solution for identification of Salmonella spp. and the top three serotypes of relevance: S. Typhimurium, S. Enteritidis, and S. Infantis. 


Chromogenic culture media-based method

Thermo Scientific Salmonella Precis Method

A quick and easy method for the enrichment, detection, and confirmation of Salmonella species from a broad range of foods, animal feed, and environmental samples. The enrichment conditions are harmonized with the SureTect Salmonella species PCR Assay for streamlined lab operations.


Reduce the risk of human error in your PCR-based Salmonella testing

Mistakes in your PCR workflow can lead to false-positive or false-negative results, compromising the accuracy and reliability of the test. With the Thermo Scientific SureTect Automation Workflow you can take your PCR-based Salmonella testing to the next level with automated lysis and PCR setup. Utilizing the CyBio FeliX Instrument, the automated workflow allows you to reduce hands-on time while increasing the accuracy and reproducibility of results.
