Report overview
Food safety testing and its technology are the scientific analysis of food and its ingredients. This is done to provide information on various properties of the food, including structure, composition and physicochemical properties. The food safety testing and technology industry includes genetically modified food safety testing market, food pathogen testing market, meat form testing market, food authenticity testing market, pesticide residue testing market, mycotoxin testing market, allergen testing market, etc.
Food safety testing techniques are some of the most common analytical laboratory methods used by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ensure food safety testing. Most companies in the food industry also use some of the technologies mentioned below. These include:
PCR technology: An ideal and convenient technology in use for pathogen detection in food industry. PCR is one of the most frequently used technologies. The test enables the detection of a single bacterial pathogen, including E. Coli, Salmonella and Listeria, present in food by detecting a specific target DNA sequence. Aiding to such advantages, various business conglomerates that are involved in the food pathogen testing industry are taking strategic measures to bring forth novel innovations and practices in the space.
ELISA assays: The Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method is the most common and preferred technique in detecting food allergens. ELISA methods detect the allergen protein molecule by binding antibodies to the allergen. The samples are processed and change color to confirm the presence of the allergen protein. However, ELISA methods may not provide reliable results depending on the situation. Some food types interfere with the ELISA method or can cause cross-reactivity, as is seen with chocolate or different kinds of nuts. The ELISA method may not be suitable for cooked or heated products, as the protein molecules are destroyed or broken down. The allergen may no longer be detectable but can still cause problems for sensitive individuals.
