Bio-Rad Laboratories, a leading company in the field of life science research and clinical diagnostics, has recently launched its EZ-Check Salmonella spp. Kit. This is a next-generation rapid detection system used in the identification of Salmonella in food and environmental samples. The kit has been validated by AOAC International and certified by AFNOR. It is therefore a very dependable solution that makes complex testing procedures easier and has minimized the time to result in food safety laboratories and food manufacturers. This innovation should solve one of the most serious problems of the food industry, as it is necessary to detect the presence of pathogens accurately, fast, and at a low cost.

The introduction of the EZ-Check Salmonella Kit is not simply a new product in the growing Bio-Rad line. It also emphasizes the ongoing interest of the company in food safety testing innovations-where the importance has increased as the global standards for regulatory practices. They have increased, and consumers are insisting on more protection. This introduction also highlights the long-term business process of Bio-Rad of diversifying beyond its purely molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing business segments, becoming more solidly established in the world food safety business, which is expected to grow to over 40 billion dollars in the next 10 years.

The commonly held investor story is that Bio-Rad is underestimated by approximately 14.2, as to its opportunities in the advanced diagnostics and bioprocessing growth. The thesis is based on the hopes that the new platforms of Bio-Rad, including the QX Continuum and QX700 Series droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) systems, and the effective acquisition of Stilla Technologies will open new sources of revenue. Bio-Rad is cutting many streams of revenue generation by integrating innovation in pathogen identification with its lead in the ddPCR technology. 

Furthermore, a growing number of cases of foodborne illness and stricter government regulations, and augmented consumer demands to be informed are all driving the need to conduct faster and more dependable tests. With the introduction of the EZ-Check Salmonella Kit, which has the highest certifications in the industry, Bio-Rad will be demonstrating itself as a reliable ally to both the food manufacturers and the regulators.
