Microbial Testing Solutions

At Romer Labs, we understand the risks posed by microorganisms to food safety and the significant responsibility food producers and processors have as the primary managers of these risks. Our comprehensive range of microbial testing solutions is designed to empower manufacturers and other participants in the farm-to-fork supply chain to take control of their processes, thereby achieving the highest levels of safety and protecting both consumers and businesses from the damaging consequences of foodborne illnesses. By providing our customers with reliable microbial testing products, and supporting them with exceptional service, we not only help them produce safer food, but also maintain or even extend the shelf life of their products. With these elements in place, customers can then enjoy the confidence to adopt more innovative practices that enhance the taste and nutrition of their products.

Monitoring of Sanitation (Cleaning & Disinfection) 
Sanitation in food processing facilities not only improves food safety and quality, but also plays an important role in extending the shelf life of food products. This is achieved by reducing the microbial load on equipment and other production surfaces, which lowers the number of microorganisms that end up contaminating food products during processing and packaging. Therefore, it is critical for food producers and processors to have a robust sanitation monitoring program in place to verify that cleaning and disinfection are effective. The monitoring of these processes involves various methods, such as visual inspections, microbial testing or organic residue measurement (protein and ATP). Microbiological methods are considered superior to other sanitation monitoring methods because they provide a direct measure of microbial contamination, and therefore a better estimate of the microbial risk incurred.
