SwabSURE ListeriaP is a rapid, direct test for the presumptive detection of Listeria monocytogenes and Listeria ivanovii on food contact and environmental surfaces. The test uses a turquoise color-change (chromogenic) technology that does not react with non-pathogenic Listeria species such as L. innocua, ensuring accurate differentiation.


Each swab features a polystyrene shaft with a breakpoint and a pre-moistened foam tip in neutralising buffer. Validated by Campden BRI and compliant with ISO 18593:2018 when used with sampling templates (e.g., TS/15-T40).
