Wilmington researchers receive award for using chemistry to protect food supply

ional three to four days with manual testing. DuPont estimates that the system reduces the reporting time for negative L. monocytogenes samples by one day and negative Salmonella samples by two days. It also reduces the occurrence of false positives for E. coli.

The BAX system has brought PCR into routine use in the food industry and has set a new standard for food testing. The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service -- which tests and regulates meat production for the United States and is considered the standard for food safety around the world -- recently adopted the BAX system. In addition, seven of the 10 largest global food companies have added the system to their food safety programs. The system is being adapted to detect viral and bacterial diseases in livestock.

The Heroes of Chemistry program, started in 1996, honors industrial chemists and chemical engineers who create commercially successful products that improve the quality of life. The theme of the awards changes annually; this year, the program recognizes technologies that protect and secure our world.
