Food molecular tests are one of the tests that allow for quick identification of a given pathogen in food. These studies involve the analysis of genetic material using molecular biology techniques such as, for example, the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These methods are almost reliable due to their high sensitivity of about 99%.
FoodSector laboratory offer in the field of molecular testing of food:
-
-
