DESCRIPTION

Yarok Microbio. is an innovation-based start-up that has developed a fast microbiological testing system for agriculture and the fresh food industry, reduce yield losses, protect consumers and safeguard producers’ interests. By testing crops at extremely early stage raw materials aimed at food production, or by testing the finished product, Yarok's fast test system indicates either product conformity, or the presence of dangerous bacteria, for crop protection and for allowing or preventing the delivery of contaminated fresh products to market.
Yarok received the 2017 Award for Agribusiness Innovation by UNIDO, the UN Industrial Development Organization, and in 2019 was named a Top 5 Disruptive Innovation by IFT, the USA Institute of Food Technologists.

TECHNOLOGY

Based on a radically new approach in diagnostics, Yarok gives accurate CFU test results in 45 minutes instead of days, unlike current testing methods.
The new diagnostic method is applied in Agriculture for Crop Protection, allowing early detection of Plant Pathogens, and in the Food Industry for Food Safety, for detection of dangerous microbes such as E.coli, Listeria, Salmonella before release of food products to the market.
The Yarok system is based on proprietary reagents and bio-analytical software, used with affordable off-the-shelf laboratory equipment.
By slashing the time of detection and enumeration of live pathogenic microbes from days to 45 minutes, Yarok MicroBio protects consumers, avoids product recalls, saves on yield loss and offers service laboratories a new competitive advantage.
