Description
Singlepath® E.coli 0157
Singlepath® E. coli is a rapid diagnostic test designed to detect E. coli bacteria in various food and environmental samples. The Singlepath® E. coli is an immunochromatographic rapid test based on gold-labeled antibodies to detect the presence of a specific antigen, in this case, the E. coli bacteria. This lateral flow test is based on the immune flow principle and is a convenient and simple-to-use, one-step device. The test includes a nitrocellulose membrane strip that is coated with antibodies specific to E. coli antigens. When the sample is applied to the test strip, any E. coli antigens present will bind to the antibodies on the strip, resulting in the development of a visible test line. The test takes approximately 20 minutes to complete, and the results are interpreted based on the presence or absence of the test line. The detection limit can be regarded as less than one colony-forming unit of E. coli O157 (including H7) in a 25 g food sample, depending on the serogroup. No additional equipment expenditure is needed.
Benefits
- Reliable: As sensitive as the official culture media method. Exceeds the performance criteria of USDA-FSIS. Provides accurate results:
-Sensitivity (according to AOAC trials) 99%
-Specificity (according to AOAC trials) 99%
-False-negative rate 1%
-False-positive rate 1%
-Efficiency 99% - Fast Result: in just 20 minutes.
- Ease-of-use: One-step format avoids working errors during handling.
- Conveniently simple: add a sample and read off the result.
- Safe, Clear, and distinct positive or negative test results with a built-in positive control.
- Economic Rapid results save labour and inventory costs and reduce labour-intensive plating methods. No capital investment required, for example, for instrumentation such as automated systems.
