Analysis Name: Salmonella VIDAS® Easy SLM
     Method Number: LI-00.742
 Scope of Application: Raw materials, line samples, finished products, and environmental
                       samples.
          Description: This method is a qualitative two day screening test for Salmonella
                       on the automated VIDAS® system, which detects Salmonella
                       antigens using the Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay (ELFA)
                       method. Samples are transferred to a selective broth following
                       incubation in a non-selective broth to allow the recovery and
                       growth of Salmonella. When a positive result is obtained, it is
                       confirmed by following the reference method for isolation and
                       identification of Salmonella (LI-00.713).
       Sample Weight 25g, 100g, 125g, 150g, 250g, 325g, and 375g

   Method Reference: AFNOR (certificate number BIO 12/16-09/05)
                     AOAC 2011.03
  Analytical Platform: Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay
  Special information: Matrices that are inhibitory to the growth of Salmonella when
                       enriched at 1:10 are subject to higher dilutions.
