The European food industry is facing a critical shift. Regulation (EU) 2024/2895 has redefined safety criteria for Listeria monocytogenes in Ready-to-Eat (RTE) foods.

⚠️ The Challenge: Food operators must now scientifically prove that Listeria will not exceed 100 CFU/g during the entire shelf life of the product. Without this “solid scientific justification,” the law will automatically enforce the strictest criterion: Absence in 25g at any stage of commercialization.

🧬 The GPS® Advantage: At genetic PCR solutions®, we provide the scientific evidence you need to stay compliant and protect your brand. Our specialized technology includes:

✅ LisMon qPCR Kits: Specifically designed for the highly accurate detection of Listeria monocytogenes.

✅ MONODOSE Format: Our “ready-to-use” individual tubes simplify your workflow—just add the sample and run the PCR.

✅ One-Day Food Testing: Achieve same-day results with a 12-hour minimum enrichment for Listeria monocytogenes. Powered by our FastExt® extraction method and an ultra-fast 9-minute PCR protocol, we ensure you meet the most demanding production timelines without compromising accuracy.

✅ Complete Sampling & Extraction: From our GPSponge® kits for surface sampling to GPSpin® for DNA extraction, we cover the entire diagnostic process.

📅 Time is running out. While the deadline is July 1, 2026, the time to validate your shelf-life studies and reinforce your HACCP systems is now.

Avoid the “Absence in 25g” default rule by building a robust scientific defense with our validated PCR systems.
