Microbiological Testing

Our microbiology testing services help clients to screen their products for specific microorganisms.

Food-born diseases are still one of the primary causes of human death worldwide. Tracking pathogens in food and feed remains the priority for all the actors of the food chain.

Cotecna is able to provide clients with a wide range of analytical solutions. This includes traditional methods of analysis based on bacteria enrichment with incubation and colony counting on Petri dishes, as well as new rapid tests (such as RT-PCR and microbial identification assays (MALDI-TOF, and DNA Sequencing) to trace genus and species of many organisms.

Our laboratories are designed and built according to strict structural criteria, in order to avoid cross contamination and any accidental contamination of tested products.
