What if you could see the entire microbial ecosystem in your food production?
Traditional microbiological testing often focuses on a limited number of organisms and relies on cultivation. In reality, a large part of the microbial community remains invisible using these methods.
With OMNI Track®, we apply metagenomic sequencing to reveal the complete microbial profile in food and food production systems – including bacteria, yeasts, and moulds that cannot be cultivated.
This opens new possibilities for food producers and hygiene teams, including:
- Identification of contamination sources
- Optimise hygiene in production environments (e.g. surfaces, air, water)
- Raw material, ingredient quality assessment and compositions of cultures
- Monitoring of fermentation processes
- Shelf-life and spoilage investigations
- Product development and challenge tests
Instead of looking for a few specific microorganisms, OMNI Track® provides a species-level overview of the entire microflora. We offer the service in any kind of food matrices.
The solution is available both as a service performed in our laboratory and as a fully implemented analytical method in your own lab (OMNI Track Pro®).
If you work with food safety, hygiene monitoring, or product quality, we would be happy to discuss how microbiome analysis could support your work.
