Background: The Neogen® Molecular Detection Assay 2-Salmonella Enteritidis/Salmonella Typhimurium (MDA2-SE/ST) method is a nucleic acid amplification test for specific detection of Salmonella enterica ser. Enteritidis (SE) and Salmonella enterica ser. Typhimurium (ST), including the ST monophasic variant Salmonella enterica 1,4,[5],12:i:-, in select poultry samples.

After rehydrating with 1 mL of the diluted food sample, Peel Plate SA is incubated for 24-48 h at 35-37 °C and observed for purple colonies.
Objective: A validation study was performed to evaluate Peel Plate SA for enumeration of S.
Background: The 3M™ Petrifilm™ Rapid Aerobic Count (RAC) Plate is a sample-ready culture medium system designed to facilitate colony enumeration in 24 h (48 h for dry powders) for selected food and environmental surfaces.
Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate the 3M Petrifilm RAC Plate in a matrix extension study for the enumeration of aerobic bacteria on stainless steel, sealed concrete, and rubber surfaces.
Method: The 3M Petrifilm RAC Plate was compared to the U.
Background: The AquaCHROM™ ECC method from CHROMagar is intended for the detection and enumeration of Escherichia coli and coliform bacteria in 100 mL water samples after 18-24 h of incubation at 35-37°C.
Objective: To validate the AquaCHROM ECC method for qualitative and quantitative detection of E. coli and coliforms with different water matrixes.
