ST. PAUL, Minn. – July 24, 2012 – Today, 3M Food Safety announced that it received

AOAC‐PTM Certification (#071202) for its new 3M Molecular Detection Assay for

E. coli O157 (including H7) from the AOAC Research Institute’s Performance Tested

MethodsSM Program. The certification gives food processors greater assurance in

safeguarding against pathogenic E. coli, a causative agent of foodborne illness

responsible for an estimated 73,000 cases annually in the U.S. and second only to

Salmonella in the number of outbreaks.

Introduced in December 2011, the 3M™ Molecular Detection System combines two

innovative technologies – isothermal DNA amplification and bioluminescence

detection – to provide a fast and reliable method of pathogen detection in enriched

food, feed and food process environmental samples. Determined to be equivalent to

standard FDA and USDA reference methods for the detection of E. coli O157,this

AOAC‐PTM certification validates 3M’s new molecular approach for pathogen

detection.

The PTM validation of E. coli O157 follows an earlier validation of the Salmonella

assay from the AOAC Research Institute, which bases certification of methods on

independent study results demonstrating that a given method meets its product

performance claims as expressed in the product package insert. For the 3M

Molecular Detection Assay E. coli O157 method PTM study, artificially contaminated

samples were enriched and evaluated by the 3M Molecular Detection System as

compared to the appropriate FDA or USDA FSIS reference method. Sample groups

evaluated included raw ground beef, bagged spinach and sprouts, and no

statistically significant differences were found in sample results between the 3M

Molecular Detection Assay E. coli O157 (including H7) and reference methods.

“We are very excited about this validation and what it means for the 3M Molecular

Detection System,” said DeAnn Benesh, regulatory affairs specialist with 3M Food
