Welcome to FoodChek Systems Inc.

FoodChek Systems Inc. specializes in the development and commercialization of fast, accurate and easy-to-use, yet cost effective food safety pathogen tests. Our FoodChek™- E. coli O157 test utilizes its revolutionary MICT proprietary magnetic nanotechnology and an easy to use qualitative magnetic reader.

Used under the AOAC-RI validated conditions, the FoodChek-™ E. coli O157 test provides results that are comparable to USDA/FSIS test results. FoodChek™- E. coli O157 produces enhanced sensitivity results for 375g Ground Beef and N-60 Beef Trim samples in less than 8 hours, including the enrichment development time.

FoodChek Systems Inc. is engaged in a robust R&D & Regulatory Approvals program which will expand this proprietary technology to include coverage of all major pathogens affecting the food chain. For processors around the world in any food safety testing environment, being able to confirm within the same production shift that products are safe to release, will have an enormous impact on lowering risks and costs, as well as improving plant productivity.
