This is what Industry and Science continue to seek in Pathogen Detection, as stated in the recent Quality Assurance & Food Safety magazine. On page 40 of the Sept/Oct 2010 issue of QA magazine, http://www.qualityassurancemag.com/pathogen-detection-quality-assurance-october-2010.aspx, FluoroVei was quoted in this special feature. FluoroVei is right on target to provide the fast answers necessary to help keep the food chain safe.

MEDICA 2010

admin — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 23:35:27 +0000

FluoroVei will be featuring its unique rapid diagnostic system, FluoroQuik, at the upcoming MEDICA trade show in Dusseldorf Germany, November 17^th – 20^th. The FluoroVei team can be found at booth 3/D15-7. The FluoroQuik sanitation monitoring tests are ideal for various hospital settings and for checking equipment such as endoscopes, especially because of its ability to detect biofilm. The FluoroVei team will also be meeting with leading companies in the medical industry to potentially partner with to further develop and market its many FluoroQuik medical diagnostic tests.

Meet us at the AACC and IAFP shows!

FluoroVei LLC will be attending the upcoming AACC show, located this year in Anaheim California. Team members are available for meetings on Wednesday July 28^th and Thursday July 29^th. Please contact us if you would like to schedule a meeting.

Following the AACC, the FluoroVei team will be available at booth #626 at the IAFP show, also at the Anaheim Convention Center. FluoroVei’s line of rapid diagnostic tests important to the food industry, such as its cutting edge Salmonella test which provides results in as little as 4 hours versus the typical 48 – 72 hours, will be featured. Please stop by to see us at the IAFP, August 1^st – 3^rd, along with our sister company, Vista Enterprises Incorporated (VEI).

Salmonella Test is the Winner!

admin — Fri, 02 Jul 2010 16:24:03 +0000

In the race to detect Salmonella quickly, FluoroVei’s test for Salmonella comes to the finish line in first place. Salmonella is a major food contamination problem triggering massive food recalls. Time is critical to the food industry, and when other methods to test for Salmonella are used, the results are not available for days. Too late! FluoroVei’s test for Salmonella provides results in 4 to 6 hours. Less than one work shift! A validation testing report is available. Contact FluoroVei to request a copy.

Successful Detection of Chlamydia in Urine Samples

admin — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 16:14:51 +0000

Once again, the FluoroQuik system has proven itself, this time bringing its accomplishments to the attention of the medical world. Using urine samples with 15 different Serovar strains of Chlamydia trachomatis, each Serovar was detected as early as 2 minutes from the time the urine sample and FluoroQuik reagent were mixed and placed into the FluoroQuik fluorometer. Readings were taken at 2 minutes, 5 minutes, and 10 minutes resulting with increased readings in picomoles of fluorescence as the reactions between the Chlamydia and FluoroQuik reagent occurred. Using urine samples will allow for the FluoroQuik system to be utilized for both female and male patients. The fast diagnosis will allow for immediate POC (Point of Care) treatment of patients, thus helping to prevent the spread of illness. Please contact FluoroVei for a copy of the report.

Successful Detection of Stressed Bacteria with FluoroQuik

admin — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 19:17:50 +0000

It has been found that in real world situations, bacteria will not always be healthy and producing enzymes, especially when they are in a stressed state (dormant). This is primarily important in the water testing market where water is treated, thereby stressing the bacteria, but possibly not killing all of the bacteria present.

FluoroQuik testing conducted with < 5 stressed cells per 100 ml of water, utilized a short incubation phase, and was able to detect the presence of stressed bacteria between 1 and 4 hours. These results are fantastic and will enable critical water testing to be completed in just a few hours versus the usual 24+ hours currently performed.

Salmonella Breakthrough

admin — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 21:03:04 +0000

FluoroVei has broken the industry’s barrier of 48 to 72 hours to detect 1 CFU of Salmonella. The FluoroQuik system is able to detect 1 CFU of Salmonella in as little as 4 hours from time of sample collection – Less Than One Shift! FluoroQuik is being touted as the “Holy Grail”.
