STEC testing services
Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia Coli (STEC) represent a part of the bacterial species E. coli, with a common feature being the production of one or more Shiga-like toxins (Stx genes). Intertek is one of the few UK contract food laboratories accredited to perform STEC analysis to ISO 17025 standards. Our STEC analysis methodology is viewed as the gold standard because of the sensitivity and the primers that are used. Download our fact sheet to learn more about our testing service.
