Fitz Scientific's food microbiology laboratory has recently received an extension to its RSA Scope of Compliance, now covering Coagulase positive staphylococcus aureus analysis in raw meat and swab samples. Fitz Scientifics food micro laboratory participates in the Retailer Supplementary Audit (RSA) assessment, a requirement for suppliers to major retailers like Tesco and Marks & Spencer. This validation showcases our dedication to delivering a world class testing service that meets and exceeds our customer expectations.
This test is important for food businesses as Coagulase pos. S. aureus is a prevalent cause of food poisoning. Instances of staphylococcal food poisoning, as highlighted by FSAI, have been associated with various foods like cheese, salami, bakery products, pasta, canned meat, fish, and vegetables (Microbial Factsheet Series Issue No. 1 | Sept 2011).
