InSite is a quick
and easy presumptive Listeria test that has been specifically designed
to monitor the presence of Listeria in environmental samples from the
food processing environment. The test contains a proprietary liquid
media formulated with antibiotics, growth
enhancers, and colour changing compounds specific to the growth of
Listeria species. A colour change from yellow to grey/black is
considered presumptive positive. Applicability of InSite is limited for
selected common Listeria spp (L. monocytogenes, L. innocua, L. ivanovii,
and L. welshmeri) on selected common surface types.
Presumptive
positive results are available for the most common Listeria spp in as
little as 24 hours at levels as low as 1-10 CFU/mL. The
InSite results can be read visually and requires no other equipment
apart from a 37°C ± 1° incubator.
Compared to UVM and
BLEB, provides superior/equivalent recovery and faster detection of as
low as 10-50 heat injured Listeria monocytogenes/mL within ~24-30 hours
of incubation. InSite provides higher
level of selectivity and sensitivity for heat injured L. monocytogenes under binary
competition conditions compared to BLEB and UVM media
