Predictions for Rapid Methods and Automation in Food Microbiology

Rapid Methods for Meat Microbiology

Rapid Methods and Automation in Microbiology are dynamic fields of study that address the utilization of microbiological, chemical, biochemical, biophysical, immunological and serological methods for the study of improving isolation, early detection, characterization and enumeration of microorganisms and their products in clinical, food, industrial and environmental samples. This overview provi...

Inspection Methods Training - Food Microbiology

Microbiology is a specialized area of biology dealing with organisms too small to be seen without sufficient magnification. Microbiologists study bacteria, fungi, parasites, viruses, and prions and their interactions with humans, animals, plants, and the environment. While viruses and prions are not living organisms like bacteria, fungi, and parasites, they are studied by microbiologists; there...

Automation in clinical microbiology.

Historically, the trend toward automation in clinical pathology laboratories has largely bypassed the clinical microbiology laboratory. In this article, we review the historical impediments to automation in the microbiology laboratory and offer insight into the reasons why we believe that we are on the cusp of a dramatic change that will sweep a wave of automation into clinical microbiology lab...

Microbiology lab automation arrives.

e d u c a t i o n a dvances in medicine have challenged labs to push the limits on diagnostics, so the industry has responded with automated solutions designed to improve efficiency, consistency , and turnaround times. Leaders in the field of in vitro diagnostics stepped up to create solutions for every stage in the laboratory process — pre-analytic, analytic, and informatics — with even more a...
