| Dr. Paul A. Hall, Global VP of Food Safety for ConAgra Foods Inc., comments that "The Pathatrix® system is the only commercially available system successfully addressing the up-front selection and concentration of target organisms. The Pathatrix® system is extremely flexible in that it is compatible with a number of existing rapid microbiological methods, and, when applied in a sample pooling format, allows for higher sample throughput, leading to significant cost savings, without any compromise in sensitivity. The ability to gain rapid results using the Pathatrix® technology is critical in the use of positive release programs. ConAgra is always striving to use the best available technology in its food safety programs and Pathatrix® is a perfect addition to this strategy" Dr Adrian. Parton, C.E.O. of Matrix MicroScience commented "We are delighted that a world class company such as ConAgra has chosen to use the Pathatrix® system after conducting a wide evaluation of alternative technologies. The flexibility, accuracy and cost saving aspects of the Pathatrix® system have once again proved to be an essential requirement for the world's leading food companies." ConAgra Foods, Inc. is one of North America's leading packaged food companies, serving grocery retailers, as well as restaurants and other foodservice establishments. |
