Alvim Biofilm Probe

Alvim Biofilm Probe help to detect bacterial settlement and growth inside water lines, tanks, and other surfaces in contact with the water and other liquids allowing to check, at the same time, the efficacy of sanitation treatments and water treatments. The ALVIM real-time, online, Biofilm Monitoring System is able to detect bacterial settlement down to 1% of surface covered by microorganisms and, basing on these data, to manually or automatically adjust and optimize cleaning treatments / biocide treatments (in industrial water systems, cooling towers, pure water lines, etc.) allowing to check, at the same time, the efficacy of the cleaning. @ http://www.alvimcleantech.com/cms/en/biofilmsensors/food-safety

Real time detection of bacteria allows to optimize sanitation, increasing Food Safety

A Study Conducted at University of Helsinki indicates that Bacteriophages Could be Employed to Eliminate Pathogens

Professor Mikael Skurnik from the University of Helsinki has studied bacteriophages, in cooperation with researchers at the Seoul National University in South Korea; they investigated the possibility of utilizing phages for the eradication of foodborne pathogens and preventing food poisoning. Their first focus was Yersinia enterocolitica. Contaminated foods were subject to phage treatment, after which the number of both bacteria and phages was monitored for three days. “Phage treatment was effective in inhibiting bacterial growth in food, while the number of phages in the food grew, indicating that phages infect bacteria and grow in them also when refrigerated,” says Skurnik.@ https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/02/180220143437.htm?utm_source=Sailthru&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Issue:%202018-02-21%20Food%20Dive%20Newsletter%20%5Bissue:14137%5D&utm_term=Food%20Dive

Bacteria-killing viruses could be employed not just in health care, but also in the food industry, a new study shows. The researchers have been investigating the possibility of utilizing phages in eradicating food-borne pathogens and preventing food poisoning.
