DNA is found in every living cell
starting from the simplest forms of life such as viruses and
bacteria and we can keep going up to the most complex organisms
including human beings. In the same way as DNA is used to identify
relationship between individuals, we can use DNA to identify
different bacterial species and other living organisms.
MLS BioDNA
Ltd is performing bacterial identification by PCR and DNA
sequencing, from pure bacterial cultures obtained from both clinical
and food/environmental specimens.
This method is useful for
the identification of Salmonella, Listeria and other organisms that
are difficult to identify using conventional techniques. Results are
usually issued within 48 - 72 hours.
For testing, laboratories
can send a pure culture of the suspected organism on a nutrient agar
plate, broth or slope, in a sealed bag.
MLS BioDNA Ltd
can also perform species identification using DNA of other higher
organisms including beef, pork, chicken and many others. We are also
looking forward to expand our capabilities for the identification of
different plant species.
