FSTest Salmonella Rapid Test Kit (Lateral Flow) – Fast, On-Site Detection in Just 10–15 Minutes

The FSTest Salmonella Rapid Test Kit is a lateral flow immunochromatographic assay designed for fast, qualitative detection of Salmonella spp. in food, water, and environmental samples. Utilizing pre-coated antibodies and visual indicators, the test cassette delivers clear, easy-to-read results within 10–15 minutes after enrichment. With no cross-reactivity to major non-target pathogens and a detection limit of 1–10 CFU/g (mL), it is ideal for rapid screening in food safety inspections, production environments, and third-party testing labs.

Key Features & Advantages

✔ Rapid Results in 10–15 Minutes – After a short enrichment step, results appear in under 15 minutes—ideal for time-sensitive decisions.

✔ Low Detection Limit – Accurately detects as low as 1–10 CFU/g or mL, suitable for critical food safety applications.

✔ Ready-to-Use Kit – Includes test cassettes, diluent, enrichment broth, pipettes, and instructions—no need for special equipment.

✔ Visual Readout – Clear T-line indicates positive, C-line ensures test validity—no interpretation training required.

✔ High Specificity – No cross-reaction with E. coli, Vibrio, Bacillus cereus, or other common non-Salmonella organisms.

✔ Simple Workflow – Minimal sample prep, no need for plating, culturing, or advanced instrumentation.

✔ Shelf-Stable – 18-month shelf life and storage at 2–25°C, perfect for both lab and field use.

How It Works – Step-by-Step Instructions

Sample Preparation (Enrichment Required)

1. Homogenize 25g/mL of sample in 225mL sterile saline (1:10 dilution).

2. Inoculate 1mL of homogenate into 4mL of GN Enrichment Broth.

3. Incubate at 37°C for 18–24 hours (shaking preferred).

4. Mix 100μL of culture with 900μL of provided diluent.

Test Procedure

1. Equilibrate the test cassette and sample to room temperature (20–40°C).

2. Drop 5–6 drops (~100μL) of diluted sample into the cassette’s sample hole.

3. Read result within 10–15 minutes. Results are invalid after 15 minutes.
