Precise and Powerful Molecular Pathogen Detection

Rapid Food Safety You Can Rely On

Food companies, service labs, and government regulators worldwide trust the Hygiena BAX® System, which uses polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect unwanted bacteria in raw ingredients, finished products, and environmental samples.

Introduced over 20 years ago, the BAX® System was the first DNA-based detection method for the food industry. Today, this automated, user-friendly system is designed for ease of operation, using real-time or traditional PCR assays, tableted reagents, and optimized media to reduce hands-on time, allowing technicians to focus on other tasks. The BAX® System remains the leading PCR instrument in ISO-17025 accredited labs around the world.
