Globally, an estimated 600 million people become ill each year from contaminated food. Food safety isn't just a scientific challenge; it's a public health imperative and a shared responsibility across the entire food chain.

Today, Neogen and brought food safety awareness to one of the world's most visible stages: the NASDAQ Tower in Times Square.

We’re excited to continue celebrating World Food Safety Day on June 7th!

Manual plate reading is one of the most time-consuming steps in many labs, and one of the hardest to scale. Here’s how one team used Neogen® Petrifilm® Plate Reader Advanced to streamline workflows, reduce hands-on time, and focus more on the decisions that matter.

We recently checked in with Lab Manager Raul Montesinos from Sigma Alimentos on his experience using the Neogen® Petrifilm® Plate Reader Advanced to help overcome challenges in his lab.

As we approach World Food Safety Day on June 7, we're continuing to spotlight voices from across our organization to explore the importance of food safety.

What does “safe food everywhere” look like in practice, and what needs to happen to get there?

“To me, ‘safe food everywhere’ looks like a global supply chain where harmonized standards and quality are recognized, and where data can be shared quickly to support informed decisions. I recently heard leaders discussing the potential for anonymized data sharing to create an early warning system for emerging contaminants and pathogen spikes. Using collective data more effectively could help the industry communicate risk clearly and take action faster across the supply chain.”

We’re continuing the conversation with team members from across the business to discuss why food safety matters. As we count down to World Food Safety Day on June 7, we’ll be sharing perspectives from the people helping advance safer food systems every day.

Where do you see the biggest opportunities to improve food safety today, and what’s holding teams back from acting on them?

“One of the biggest opportunities in food safety today is helping teams move from reactive to proactive decision-making. Many customers already collect valuable data through environmental monitoring programs, but the real impact comes from trending that data to identify patterns, strengthen sanitation practices, and prevent contamination before it occurs. Too often, fragmented systems and disconnected data slow action. The greatest opportunity is turning existing insights into practical improvements that strengthen both food safety and operational efficiency.”

World Food Safety Day is just around the corner, and we’re kicking off the conversation by sitting down with team members from across the business to discuss why food safety matters.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll be sharing perspectives from the people helping advance food safety every day, from science and innovation to manufacturing and industry expertise.

Stay tuned as we count down to June 7 and continue the conversation around building a safer food system for all.

What does “safe food everywhere” look like in practice, and what needs to happen to get there?

“When I think about the people working every day to keep our food safe, the teams that truly put ‘safe food everywhere’ into practice are the ones that build a strong food safety culture. That starts with a ‘See Something, Say Something’ mindset, supported by strong training, employee retention, and an environment where teams are encouraged to continuously improve and speak up when they identify potential risks or opportunities.”

If you’re only testing the final product, you’re missing where problems actually start. That’s the point of environmental monitoring: understanding what’s happening on surfaces, equipment, and across the facility before it becomes a bigger problem.

Food Allergy Awareness Month!

Food allergies are a part of everyday life for millions of people. Behind the scenes, food safety teams are working to help detect and manage allergens so they can make informed decisions and reduce risk to help keep food safe.

If you’re in food safety, what’s one thing your team is doing to strengthen allergen control?

ATP testing helps food safety teams verify sanitation by detecting adenosine triphosphate (ATP) a molecule found in organic material that may remain on surfaces after cleaning.

The test produces a small flash of light that is measured by a luminometer. As facilities get cleaner and residues become smaller, detecting that signal becomes more challenging.

That’s where the photodetection technology inside the instrument plays an important role in detecting and measuring those signals.

This article breaks down what to consider when choosing photodetection technology for your hygiene monitoring program.https://media.neogen.com/m/3c94bbb788f75b4a/original/Hygiene-Monitoring-Choosing-Optimal-Photodetection-Technology_Article_en-US_FS00659.pdf
