AOAC EXPERT REVIEW PANEL FOR MICROBIOLOGY FOR FOODS AND ENVIRONMENTAL SURFACES
AOAC Expert Review Panel Final Action Feedback
independent laboratory testing and multi-laboratory collaborative studies in both the United States and
Europe.
AOAC Performance Tested Method: PTM#091103
The VIDAS LMX method was certified by the AOAC Research Institute Performance Tested Method
SM
(PTM) program after the completion of a single laboratory study and an independent laboratory study.
These studies included an evaluation of the following parameters: inclusivity, exclusivity, robustness, lot-
to-lot/stability and method comparison.
AOAC Official Method: Certificate No: 2013.11
The VIDAS LMX method was also adopted as an AOAC Official Method of Analysis (OMA), First Action
status after the completion of a multi-laboratory method comparison study.
AFNOR – NF Validation: Certificate No: BIO 12/27– 02/10
The VIDAS LMX method has been certified NF VALIDATION (AFNOR) as an alternative method for the
detection of
Listeria monocytogenes
through the completion of an independent single laboratory study
and a multi-laboratory study. All of the validation studies demonstrated that the VIDAS LMX method
was statistically equivalent to the corresponding reference method for the matrices tested.
