Recapitulating the competence of novel & rapid monitoring tools for microbial documentation in food systems

• Real-time monitoring of food products by novel method.
• Development of non-destructive measurement systems.
• Innovative microbial investigation methods.
• Spectroscopic, laser optical, bioluminescence and DNA-based methods as an option for food industries.

The requirement of real-time monitoring of food products has encouraged the development of non-destructive measurement systems. This has directed the intentions of the researchers to introduce plenty of novel techniques that could be more reliable and provide rapid and comprehensive results regarding the microbial status of food products. Therefore, the traditional time-consuming and laborious methods should be replaced by some novel techniques to provide a prompt and non-invasive microbial testing of food. This article provides information about some innovative microbial investigation methods that could replace the conventional techniques that have been habitually used in food industries.
