The Fresh Produce Safety Centre (FPSC) invites members of the industry to complete its Rapid Diagnostic Methods in the Fresh Produce Industry Survey.
The industry-wide survey is a follow-up to the FPSC’s Rapid Diagnostic Methods for Foodborne Pathogens: Outlook for the Fresh Produce Industry report, and aims to capture the needs and wants of the industry with regards to rapid diagnostic methods, which was one of the key recommendations of the report. The survey, consisting of 22 questions, aims to collect industry responses to the developing field of rapid diagnostic methods and help inform the future of rapid diagnostic methods and their place in the fresh produce industry.
The report details the state of current research on technologies for the quick identification of pathogens, identifies the most promising technologies for the fresh produce industry, and provides conclusions and recommendations including the next steps that should be taken to advance the field of rapid diagnostic methods.
