This blog discusses the importance of testing aspergillus in hemp and cbd products.


It’s no secret that hemp is a fast-growing market with applications in a wide range of products from supplements to clothing. Watch this comprehensive webinar in which Eurofins experts discuss hemp testing considerations for hemp farmers and processors including genetic, microbiological, and analytical testing.


This poster—originally presented at IFT’s annual 2019 meeting—seeks to determine the robustness of LAMP pathogen assays by testing wide variations in temperature, incubation time, and other conditions, to facilitate efficient laboratory operation in “real world” conditions.


A large dairy product manufacturer expressed interest in an alternate PCR method for the detection of Genus Listeria in their environmental and product testing program due to recurring false-positive detections and high levels of environmental Genus Listeria positives in the recent past. Our objective was to compare the performance of two PCR based methods for Genus Listeria detection.


This scientific poster demonstrates how flow cytometry can be used to accurately and precisely enumerate B. coagulans and B. subtilis in a gummy matrix.
