Testing Of food contaminants

Classical food contaminant testing is based on a slow and expensive process of laboratory culture of contaminant micro organisms. DNA-based testing assures the best sensitivity and reliability in food contaminant determination

GENTRAS has developed a fast and high-throughput parallel testing service for Salmonella, Camplobacter, Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, E. coli O157:H7, Clostridium botulinum, the most prevalent foodborne pathogens that cause foodborne illness.

The system is endowed with higher sensitivity than traditional microbiological approaches and food is tested at a fraction of the its cost.
GENTRAS is developing another panel on rare pathogens.
