New salmonella food poison test developed at ISU

Posted on Feb 14, 2009

A new Salmonella detection test developed at Iowa State University can shorten the time to detect salmonella. Using a tape like paper to pull bacteria from the food source, then a soapy, salty water mixture is applied to the tape and in two hours an ultraviolet light source will cause the salmonella will give off a green-fluorescent glow.

It’s inexpensive, quick and easy to perform.

Researcher Byron Brehm-Stecher and Bleda Bisha developed the test through the college of Food Science and Nutrition.

Brehm-Stecher's and Bisha's findings will be published in the journal Applied and Environmental Microbiology, published by the American Society of Microbiology.
