Join us at 2019 IAFP´s European Symposium on Food Safety

IAFP´s European Symposium, takes place at the La Cité des Congrès de Nantes, France this year (24^th-26^th April 2019). The IAFP’s European Symposium on Food Safety focuses on shaping the future of food safety by providing a forum for the exchange of ideas with colleagues from across Europe working in the industry, government, and academia. The event is an excellent forum to gain knowledge about the latest developments and techniques in food science and safety.

You will find Thermo Fisher Scientific exhibiting at Stand #19 where we will be demonstrating some of our most recent technology and solutions including a complete next generation sequencing (NGS) system for untargeted species screening of foods and ingredients; a powerful tool helping food manufacturers to combat food fraud.

Take a look at how to make sample handling and enrichment quick and easy with our Thermo Scientific™ Bagged Media solutions and how you can rapidly and effectively identify the most common foodborne pathogens with our Thermo Scientific™ SureTect™ Real-Time PCR System, now with workflows validated with the latest Applied Biosystems™ instrumentation and Thermo Scientific™ RapidFinder™ Analysis Software. Heating steps for the SureTect Assay sample preparation process can now be fully automated using the Applied Biosystems™ SimpliAmp™ Thermal Cycler. The SimpliAmp touchscreen interface makes it easy to set-up and save the parameters required for SureTect Assays and any other applications. The QuantStudio 5 Food Safety Instrument is a high-performance benchtop platform giving users greater control of data, combining out-of-the box installation, ease-of-use and system connectivity with powerful options to enable maximum control. The 6-channel, 96-well, cloud-enabled open platform is suitable for running the full range of PCR solutions for food safety, authenticity, and quality testing available from Thermo Fisher. Combining the QuantStudio 5 Food Safety Instrument with user-friendly RapidFinder Analysis software, makes SureTect Assay set-up, running and automatic result interpretation simple, and helps avoid errors and subjective result determination.

You’ll have the opportunity to find out more about the latest validation certifications and approvals for the SureTect pathogen detection assays and other Thermo Scientific workflows by visiting our stand and viewing our poster presentations:
