Food & Feed Analysis
R-Biopharm Australia delivers advanced food and feed analysis technology for laboratories, food manufacturers, feed producers and quality assurance teams across Australia and New Zealand. Our portfolio includes PCR, ELISA and rapid testing solutions designed to support food safety, quality control and regulatory compliance.
Our technologies enable the detection of mycotoxins, allergens, pathogens, antibiotics and other contaminants in a wide range of food and feed matrices. Whether you require high-throughput laboratory testing or rapid on-site screening, R-Biopharm Australia provides scalable solutions to help protect consumers, support animal health and maintain product quality.
Food and Feed Analysis Applications
R-Biopharm Australia provides comprehensive food and feed analysis solutions to support every stage of the testing process. Our technologies enable laboratories to detect mycotoxins such as aflatoxins, ochratoxin A, fumonisins, deoxynivalenol (DON), T-2/HT-2 toxins and zearalenone, while also identifying allergen residues including peanut, milk, egg, soy, gluten and tree nuts. Advanced PCR solutions deliver rapid and reliable detection of foodborne pathogens such as Salmonella, Listeria and
E. coli, helping safeguard food safety and quality. Our portfolio also supports the monitoring of veterinary drug residues and other contaminants in raw materials and finished products, alongside quality control testing for incoming ingredients, in-process production and final product release to help ensure regulatory compliance and consumer confidence.
Lateral Flow Analytical System
The Lateral Flow Analytical System combines the RIDA®SMART BOX with the RIDA®SMART APP for allergen and mycotoxin analysis to deliver a single, integrated solution for rapid lateral flow testing. Together, these components provide standardised image capture, objective result interpretation, and digital data handling for RIDA®QUICK test strips, improving result consistency, traceability, and efficiency across routine food and feed analysis workflows.

Enzymatic Analysis
The enzymatic analysis category brings together the Pictus 500 and RIDA®CUBE SCAN systems to support automated and semi-automated biochemical testing in food and feed analysis. The Pictus 500 is a high-throughput, fully automated benchtop analyser designed for processing enzymatic assay workflows, while the RIDA®CUBE SCAN is a compact photometric system that runs individual enzymatic and colorimetric tests from ready-to-use RIDA®CUBE cartridges. Together, they streamline enzyme-based determinations of sugars, organic acids and other food constituents with reliable, walk-away operation and digital result handling.
ELISA Solutions
Automated ELISA technologies enable laboratories to increase testing capacity while improving consistency and reducing manual handling. R-Biopharm Australia’s ELISA automation platforms simplify every stage of the assay process, from sample preparation through to result generation, helping laboratories achieve reliable, reproducible performance with greater operational efficiency. Suitable for routine food and feed analysis, these systems support a wide range of applications while maintaining the analytical accuracy required for quality assurance and regulatory compliance.
PCR Solutions
Our PCR solutions centres on the RIDA®CYCLER, a compact real-time PCR instrument that delivers rapid, reliable amplification and detection of DNA/RNA targets for food and feed analysis. Designed for routine molecular workflows, it features intuitive software with pre-loaded thermal profiles, four-channel fluorescence detection, and advanced thermal technology for fast cycling. The system supports a wide range of PCR-based assays, from pathogen detection to allergen and GMO analysis, offering flexibility and consistency in everyday laboratory testing.
Mycotoxin Analysis
Through full automation, the CHRONECT Symbiosis RIDA®CREST enhances both the reliability and overall performance of mycotoxin testing by removing variability associated with manual handling.
