The food safety testing market is projected to reach $15.04 billion and a volume of 1.16 billion tests by 2019, according to market researcher MarketsandMarkets.
Food safety systems strive to minimize contamination in finished food products and also in the environment where the food is produced. “For certain types of products, particularly ready-to-eat products, it is critical that environmental pathogens be easily controlled through environmental pathogen monitoring so that they do not contaminate the product,” researchers at MarketsandMarkets said.
