GENOMICS

GENOMICS TOOLS IN FOOD MANUFACTURING

Genomics tools are changing the way food manufacturers manage quality control issues, leading to an efficient use of their budget and significant savings on non-quality cost.

Do you recognize these challenges?

Data-driven decisions enable more effective corrective actions on pathogen and spoilage issues, improve quality control, and support the implementation of prevention strategies.

Microbial contamination on final product

Recurrent Microbial Contamination In My Final Product Or Environment.

Frequent Spoilage Complaints About My Product.

QA Budget Challenges Due To The Amount Spent On Re-Testing.

Struggle To Identify Which Microorganism Is Causing The Spoilage In My Product.

Inefficient Corrective Actions - The Issue Doesn't Go Away.

How can genomics help?

Recurrent Microbial Contamination

Improve root cause analysis by identifying the source of the problem, determining whether it is a resident or transident problem and understanding how long it has existed.

Recurrent Spoilage Issues

Adressing recurrent spoilage issues by pinpointing the source, identifiying if is presistent and evaluating how long the same problem has been occurring.

Struggle To Identify The Spoiler

Identifying spoiler with microbiome characterization and monitoring (including non-cultivable). Optimize corrective actions to specific issue, such as biofilms, considering factors as biocide/thermal resistance.

Inefficient Corrective Actions

Implement actions according to the specific problem, biofilms, resident strain vs new strain, biocide resistance, thermo resistance.

If you are facing challenges with any of these issues, bioMérieux's genomics capabilities can help you move from detection to deeper investigation and understanding to better manage any contamination and mitigate risk.

Expected Benefits

Genomics can help you move from detection to deeper investigation and understanding to better manage any contamination and mitigate risk in order to reduce the cost of non-quality.

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) and Metagenomics

All of the information required for a living being to grow, reproduce, and mature is encoded in sequences of 4 building blocks called nucleotides commonly abbreviated as C, G, A, and T) polymerized into long chains contained within cells called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
