Salmonella Monitoring

Shield your operations from 150+ Serotypes

Industry Challenge

New regulations are coming...

“Requiring incoming flocks to be tested for Salmonella before entering an establishment...”

- USDA FSIS, Component 1 of The Proposed Regulatory Framework
to Reduce Salmonella Illnesses Attributable to Poultry (Oct 11, 2022)

Your customer requirements are evolving

Government, further processing, and retail are now defining safety standards down to the Serotype level.

Existing tools lack key capabilities

Legacy methods detect the fastest growing serotype, often missing those that can be human health concerning and later found in post-chill carcasses, parts, and ground poultry meat.

The Solution

Introducing Salmonella System
Monitoring (SSM)

The future of food safety is not just about reducing the number of Salmonella but understanding the type–and that’s where we come in.

SSM combines novel Deep Serotyping technology with an easy-to-use software platform. With better data and tools, integrators can make better decisions and apply more effective interventions.

Powered by Deep Serotyping

Ancera has commercialized CRISPR-SeroSeq technology developed by Dr. Nikki Shariat’s team at the University of Georgia. Integrators now have access to fast turnaround Serotype data, packaged in a software platform to visualize and act on emerging threats.

Strategic objectives

We know every production system is unique. Our team will develop a Deep Serotyping strategy based on your objectives. Here are just a few of the ways integrators today are leveraging SSM to achieve their strategic objectives:
