PURE Biosences Says Continuing to Test SDC in Produce

PURE Bioscience, Inc. PURE, the creator of the patented silver dihydrogen citrate (SDC) antimicrobial, today announced it has initiated testing of SDC-based formulas in direct food applications to determine efficacy in reducing food borne pathogens such as Listeria, E. coli and Salmonella. The new testing program builds on the earlier GRAS designation for SDC on food contact surfaces. Based on promising results from initial tests at Deibel Laboratories, additional testing is underway at the University of Georgia using whole lettuce leaves. These and other planned tests are intended to optimize specific formulas for various intervention steps throughout a food processing program.
