Staphylococcus Testing Services by CREM Co Labs

Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium capable of producing toxins that can lead to foodborne illness, often causing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and abdominal cramping. These toxins are heat stable, meaning that even if the bacteria are killed during cooking, the toxins may still cause illness. Staphylococcus aureus is a major concern in ready-to-eat foods, dairy products, and processed meats.

Sources of Staphylococcus Contamination: Staphylococcus aureus is commonly found on the skin, nose, and throat of humans, making improper handling, cross-contamination, and poor hygiene practices significant risk factors for contamination. The bacterium can grow rapidly at room temperature, especially in foods that are not properly refrigerated.
