Based on billions of years of co-evolution of phage and its host bacteria, the use of phage recombinant protein technology offers unrivalled sensitivity and specificity and represents a breakthrough in food pathogen screening.

This new technology has won the IAFP 2010 Innovation Award and is available on bioMérieux evolutive automated platforms for pathogen screening: VIDAS® and mini VIDAS®.

VIDAS UP Salmonella is the latest innovation on the VIDAS platform for the extremely simple and rapid detection of Salmonella in food, feed and environmental samples. VIDAS UP Salmonella reinforces the VIDAS UP range already present on the market with VIDAS UP E. coli O157 (Including H7) for the detection of Escherichia coli O157 (Including H7) in food, feed, environmental samples and soil.

VIDAS UP: Extremely simple & fast

The VIDAS UP range is the convergence between the performance of the phage recombinant protein technology and the ease of use of the VIDAS system.
