BTI offers solutions to both government regulators and the food industry for on-site genetic identification of various foods and food products as well as biological organisms that may cause harm to consumers.

Current Foods/Organisms of Interest Include:

• Seafood Verification (Grouper and others)
• Salmonella
• E. Coli 

Ongoing investigations of seafood distributors and restaurants have uncovered a practice termed "Fish Fraud", where less expensive fish species are substituted for a desirable species such as grouper. Bioplex's SE300 combined with species specific assays offer an affordable and powerful initial screening alternative to full genetic sequencing for confirmation of species. With easy to execute, on-site testing and rapid results in minutes, our seafood ID products can be an asset to distributors, restaurants and law enforcement in uncovering fish fraud.
