“Food gloves are not required to be clean and intact or be tested on arrival for chemical or microbial contaminants.

Key Points:

“Food gloves are not required to be clean and intact or be tested on arrival for chemical or microbial contaminants.
“Currently, stockpiles of these low-quality gloves are being dumped into local markets with suspect expiry dates, no traceability, and no accountability,” says Ardagh.
Protective gloves are meant to protect, not infect
Glove safety is critical in food processing and service to ensure gloves do not contaminate food.
Based in South Lake Tahoe, Eagle’s Delta Zero™ third-party testing program verifies Eagle gloves adhere to the highest level of consistent glove safety and performance.

New Assay Offers Automated Triplicate Testing, Extended Semi-Quantitation to 100,000 CFU/gram and Fastest Results to Market in One Efficient Test

Key Points:

With just one sample - which can be prepared manually or through PathogenDx's easy-to-use Octa platform - labs can now run every test under PathogenDx's catalog in tandem.
"We are proud to launch the new, AOAC certified version of QuantX Fungal, the only test in the market currently providing semi-quantitative analysis of total yeast, mold and fungal species detection," said PathogenDx Co-founder and CEO, Milan Patel .
With the dynamic range extended from 1,000 to 100,000 CFU/gram, and triplicate testing of yeast, mold and fungal species all in one test, QuantX Fungal rapidly and accurately quantifies the Total Yeast & Mold responsible for the vast majority of fungal outbreaks.
This results in a faster and much more accurate test than qPCR or other technologies.

The air and surfaces around you are home to multitudes of bacteria, fungi, viruses, mites, algae and protozoa.

Key Points:

The air and surfaces around you are home to multitudes of bacteria, fungi, viruses, mites, algae and protozoa.
A lot of this fungal growth is what we call mould.
But what do the myriad colours that appear on our stuff tell us about the world we try not to think about?

Black

The concept of toxic black mould is one many people have become aware of due to flood impacts.
Stachybotrys is the one known as toxic black mould.
When the grout in your shower turns black though, that’s a different fungus called Aureobasidium.

Blue

That blue orange I mentioned before, you can thank Penicillium for that.
The organism that gives us blue cheese and the antibiotic penicillin is also responsible for producing a dense growth of mould that almost looks like smoke when disturbed, spreading millions of spores onto the rest of your fruit bowl.

Yellow and orange

In fact, some need exposure to light – and ultraviolet (UV) light in particular – to complete their life cycle.
They produce a spectrum of staining that can often turn damp items yellow, brown or orange.

Green

We’re all fairly familiar with the green spots that turn up on mouldy bread, cake and other food items.
The green tuft is often from a group of fungi called Aspergillus.
In the green gang is also a fungus called Trichoderma, which is Latin for “hairy skin”.

Pink, purple and red

Neurospora, also known as the red bread mould, is one of the most studied fungi in scientific literature.
It’s another common, non-hazardous one that has been used as a model organism to observe fungal genetics, evolution and growth.
Fusarium is less common indoors, being an important crop pathogen, but will sometimes turn spoiled rice purple.

White

One of these was hyaline and non-hyaline, essentially referring to transparent and coloured, respectively.
This fungus is a parasite of some moths and cicadas and is visible as brilliant white, tree-shaped growths on their unfortunate hosts.

To eliminate the potential risk of these costly product recalls, a range of Eagle Protect’s nitrile gloves comply with the USDA’s National Organic Program (NOP) guidelines and regulations.

Key Points:

To eliminate the potential risk of these costly product recalls, a range of Eagle Protect’s nitrile gloves comply with the USDA’s National Organic Program (NOP) guidelines and regulations.
Eagle Protect recently published the findings of their five-year study measuring the risk of glove contamination, which consisted of independent testing of the interior and exterior glove surfaces of 26 different brands, new and unused.
“As the proliferation and sale of organic-related products continues to rise, so does the risk of supply chain contamination,” said Steve Ardagh , CEO of Eagle Protect.
Stringent, third-party testing procedures, product traceability, and routine auditing are all part of Eagle Protect’s proprietary Delta Zero™ glove quality verification program - reducing the threat of supply chain contamination.
