Protect Your Facility from Foodborne Pathogen Contamination
Pathogens (Listeria, Salmonella, E. coli) accounted for 39% of all food recalls in the US.*
*FSNS, Food Recalls in 2024: Revealing the Statistics (fsns.com);
Pathogens can enter food production facilities through multiple vectors, including ingredients, processes, the facility environment, and personnel. Once inside, they can persist in hard-to-clean areas such as equipment crevices, drains, and other harborage sites, creating environments where contamination can increase. Even routine cleaning and sanitation may not eliminate these risks if preventive measures are not validated and monitored.
While testing of raw ingredients and finished products is a critical component of a comprehensive food safety program, it is most effective when supported by validated methods across a range of food matrices. However, relying on finished product testing alone to detect contamination can result in costly recalls, regulatory consequences, potential risks to consumer safety, and damage to brand reputation.
Proactive pathogen testing can identify risks before they reach your products or consumers, enabling early, decisive action.
Neogen solutions help facilities shift from reactive detection to proactive control by:
- Early pathogen detection: Identify contamination in environmental zones before it affects products.
- Sanitation verification: Confirm cleaning protocols are effective on high-risk food contact surfaces and hard-to-reach areas.
- Reducing operational risk: Help protect product quality, maintain consumer trust, and help prevent recalls.
- Continuous improvement: Use testing data to refine procedures, validate corrective actions, and strengthen preventive controls.
Proactive pathogen testing is essential in today’s regulatory and consumer environment, helping facilities safeguard product, maintain operational integrity, and uphold brand reputation.
