Validation of the 3M™ Molecular Detection Assay 2—STEC Gene Screen (stx and eae) for Detection of Shiga Toxin Gene (stx1 and/or stx2) and Intimin Gene (eae) in Dried Cannabis Flower and Dried Hemp Flower: AOAC Performance Tested MethodSM 071902

Abstract Background: The 3M™ Molecular Detection Assay 2—STEC Gene Screen (stx and eae) method is based on gene amplification by the use of real time loop-mediated isothermal amplification when used with the 3M Molecular Detection System for the rapid and specific detection of Shiga toxin gene (stx1 and/or stx2) and intimin gene (eae) from Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in enriched products. The 3M Molecular Detection Assay 2—STEC Gene Screen (stx and eae) was approved as AOAC Performance Tested MethodSM
