ACAM acts as a consultant to the food industry, providing both full service analytical testing and auditing services. Currently, ACAM is seeking national accreditation for its laboratory services, and regularly participates in national proficiency testing. The goal of the Company is to work with local, domestic and international companies to ensure the timely and safe distribution of food products and commodities to the public. Eventually, the Company seeks to add a research branch for the development of novel biosensors to aid in the detection of pathogens in food.
