Food Poisoning Model
Product Code : JC-BE-6244
The Food Poisoning Model (SKU JC-BE-6244) is a food poisoning teaching model that compares six bacterial causes by onset time, typical food source and mechanism. It separates preformed toxins, as with Staphylococcus aureus and the emetic type of Bacillus cereus, from toxins formed in the gut by Clostridium perfringens and diarrhoeal B. cereus, and from true infections with Salmonella and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. It serves microbiology, food science and public health teaching. JaincoLab manufactures it in Ambala, India.
Specifications
The model is a microbiology teaching model of bacterial food poisoning, covering six organisms or types with their onset times, food sources, toxins and diagnostic approach; its dimensions, material and base are not in the current product data and are confirmed on the quotation.

Uses of the food poisoning teaching model
Lecturers use the model to show how the time from eating to illness points towards the likely organism during an outbreak investigation.
- Comparing preformed toxins with toxins formed in the gut
- Linking cooked rice with Bacillus cereus and pastries with S. aureus
- Covering Clostridium perfringens in meat dishes and gravies
- Explaining Salmonella infection from poultry, eggs and dairy
- Discussing Vibrio parahaemolyticus and undercooked seafood

Frequently asked questions
Which organisms are compared?
Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus (emetic and diarrhoeal types), Clostridium perfringens, Salmonella species and Vibrio parahaemolyticus.
Why does onset time matter on the model?
Onset ranges from 1-6 hours for preformed toxins to 12-72 hours for Salmonella, so the timing helps identify the likely organism.
