As if things weren't bad enough-from current issue of Gourmet News:
Rapid E.coli detector found

SPRINGFILED, Mass- - Two professors at Springfield College, based
here, have developed the Motility Channel Pathogen Detector, a new method
of detecting lethal strains of E.coli quickly enough to allow processors
of meat poultry and other foods to prevent the distribution of
contaminated foods.
Professor of Biology Chun-Kun Wun and Professor of Chemistry Frank
J. Torre claim that the detector, which comes in a kit, can identify
E.coli 0157:H7 in eight to 24 hours in not only meat, but the intestines
of live animals as well.
According to a prepared release, the detector is inexpensive and
can be used by a technician with three to four hours of instruction.
Wun and Torre began research and experimentation with the Motility
Channel Pathogen Detector in 1996; licensing agreements are expected to be
completed in the United States and internationally by July.
