| Genetically modified organisms (GMO) testing |
| The Company has complete in house facility to execute various jobs related to G.M.O. |
| DTH analytical services comprise the whole range of GMO testing - from screening and identification to precise quantification of trace components of GMO material. Genetically modified organisms (GMO) are detectable with different methods. Yet only the detection of DNA with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the detection of proteins with immunological methods reach the required high sensitivity standard. |

|
| GMOs (genetically modified organisms) are microorganisms, plants, and animals that have had their genetic structure altered by artificial means. Genetically modified (GM) products are a new area of agriculture biotechnology and there are presently only a few test makers. However, this area is likely to grow as test makers identify the food industry's interest in testing GM products. |
 |
| Whereas protein detection is known for short turn around times and minimal technical effort the exceptional advantages of PCR are accuracy, sensitivity and specificity. In addition to protein testing Gene Scan specializes in qualitative and quantitative DNA analysis with PCR and offers the most comprehensive portfolio for GMO analysis of feed and food. |
