Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a high-throughput DNA sequencing technology that has been widely used in the field of food testing in recent years. Compared with traditional sequencing methods, NGS can sequence multiple samples quickly and accurately at the same time, so it is considered an important tool for food safety testing and microbial monitoring. The application of NGS technology in food testing provides strong technical support for improving food safety and protecting consumer health. NGS can quickly and accurately detect pathogenic microorganisms in food, such as Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, etc., helping regulatory agencies and food production companies to quickly identify sources of contamination and reduce food safety risks.
Our NGS Testing Services
We provide professional technologies such as high-throughput sequencing (NGS), real-time PCR, and single-cell sequencing, which can be used for testing services for dietary supplement-related foods, including the following:
NGS can quickly and accurately detect pathogenic microorganisms in food, such as Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, etc., to help regulators and food manufacturers quickly identify the source of contamination and reduce food safety risks.
- Genetically Modified Food Testing
NGS technology can efficiently identify and distinguish genetically modified ingredients, ensure the accuracy of food labels and consumers' right to know.
NGS can be used to analyze the microbial community structure in food, such as the bacterial community composition in fermented foods and the microbial diversity in dairy products, which helps optimize production processes and control quality.
When a food safety incident occurs, NGS technology can be used to trace the source of contamination, identify problems in the supply chain, and help relevant agencies respond quickly.
Advantages
