Molecular Biological Analyses

In accordance with the Biosafety Law and the GMO Analysis Strategy instruction, we use DNA analysis techniques, which are the most reliable methods for the detection of GMOs in processed food, unprocessed food, feed and seed samples. When analysing processed foods, excessive processing during the production stages can cause DNA to degrade and make it difficult to detect. After DNA is isolated from these products, it is aimed to identify 35S Promoter, NOS Terminator, FMV Promoter regions within the scope of GMO Screening (CAMV) by Real-Time PCR method.

  • D D 0930

    In case of negative results, advanced analysis techniques are applied in line with the customer's request and Soy-Cotton-Corn Plant Specific Screening is performed. If a positivity is detected here, the result is reached by continuing with the Type determination analysis.

    DNA-based PCR test detects the presence of GMOs with the help of certified reference materials with a sensitivity of 10 Copies/Reaction. The analyses included in our scope;

    Meat Species Determination;

    Today, one of the biggest problems in the food industry is adulteration and the deterioration of the originality of food products. Mixing expensive red meat with cheap poultry or pork for economic reasons can lead to negative consequences for human health as well as religious inconveniences. Especially when meats with similar pigment structures such as beef-horse, beef-sheep and chicken-pork are mixed with each other, it becomes impossible for the consumer to detect this counterfeit. Such counterfeiting is frequently encountered in foods such as meatballs, sausages, salami, pastrami, gelatine. Speciation analysis, which is an extremely important analysis in detecting fraud and adulteration, is performed by our expert staff with a Real-Time PCR Device in our Molecular Biology Laboratory with a sensitivity of 0.05%.
