PORTLAND, OR, April 14, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Amidst the recent media hype around foodborne illness and massive product recalls, one analytical laboratory is taking a stance to shed new light on the often confusing and little known world of food testing and safety. OMIC USA Inc., an industry veteran that has helped deliver safe products to the world market for over a decade, is determined to heighten awareness of food safety issues among producers and consumers alike.

In response to an increasing number of food recalls, and growing concern among consumers, OMIC USA Inc. has added additional offerings to its strong lineup of tests to meet consumer demand.
