Exciting opportunities abound in the food safety testing industry, driven by technological advancements. The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the importance of accurate and efficient testing methods, especially as workforce challenges emerged in specialized areas like lab technicians. Testing techniques now rely on precision and speed, with methods such as PCR, qPCR, RT-PCR, LAMP, ELISA, ELFA, lateral flow, and sequencing utilized to detect nucleic acids and identify strains in foodborne pathogens.

A significant breakthrough involves training machine-learning algorithms on over 1,300 Typhimurium genomes, enabling the identification of the origin of foodborne illness. This advancement effectively predicts which animal sources, primarily poultry and swine, carry the Typhimurium genome, aiding in tracing outbreak sources. Additionally, artificial intelligence (AI) plays a role in reducing food waste.

In Singapore, researchers have developed an AI-powered "nose" to detect meat freshness by analyzing gases emitted as meat spoils. This technology helps determine whether food is safe to consume, regardless of the "best before" date, thereby significantly reducing food waste and enhancing overall food safety.

The post-COVID-19 era presents an opportunity for the food safety testing industry to capitalize on these technological advancements. Businesses can leverage AI, machine learning, and genomics to ensure food safety, protect public health, and reduce food waste on a global scale.
