There is no dust on that photo, just cable sheathing, and the rest of your premise is also false. OSIS is manufacturing the MIT 1000 and 1000a and will produce future versions as the are jointly developed. MMTC ROCKS!!!!!
Listeria cert is containing the manufacturer MMTC. Mind that the cert should be read as containing the original manufucturer or licencee.
The original cert contained MMTC as manufacturer, which has been kept renewing every year.
If they are subcontracting OSIS to assemble MIT1000's, there is nothing wrong or scam about that. Or would they need to re-cert again if they change their subcontracted manufacturer ? LOL
Makes sense also : If the AOAC cert would contain "osis" , there would be no related connection anymore with MicroImaging based on that document.
OSIS/MMTC relationship has been proven many times and is actual. Last public statement from OSIS' president Manoocher was in 2010. Meanwhile the photo of the OSI part is not earlier than Q4 2011 LOL. Why ? Because MIT 1000A depicted is introduced October 2011
