Hygiena's InSite Listeria is a quick test for the detection of Listeria in food processing environments.
These swabs are self-contained, providing an easy-to-use environmental Listeria species test. Each device contains a chromogenic liquid media formulated with antibiotics, growth enhancers and color-changing compounds specific to Listeria species. Simply swab the test area and wait. A change in color after 24 – 48 hours of incubation is considered a presumptive positive. No expensive lab equipment is required and no additional sample handling is necessary.
