THE MMTC, UC DAVIS, IOWA STATE CONNECTION!!!
JUNE 2006. SAN CLEMENTE, Calif. -- Micro Imaging Technology Inc. (MMTC) announced that it will be working in collaboration with Richard L. Walker DVM, Ph.D., professor of Clinical Diagnostic Bacteriology and director of the California Animal Health and Food Safety (CAHFS) Laboratory located at the University of California at Davis, in projects to further demonstrate the efficacy of its laser-based microbe detection technology. CAHFS is the backbone of the Western Institute for Food Safety and Security whose mission is to conduct research that enhances food safety and defense in all sectors of the food systems' continuum from environment to consumer.

The first project will involve the exact identification of specific characteristics of the E. coli bacteria at the strain level. This program expands on MIT's earlier demonstrated successes in the ability, within several minutes of testing, to determine subspecies of E. coli. The objective is to rapidly determine the level of resistivity of the bacteria to various antigens. According to Dr. Walker, "Such a study could interest audiences in a number of fields, including medical and food safety."
