Go Molecular. The Answer Is in the DNA.

Harmful bacteria and fungi can contaminate your raw materials, production facilities and, even worse, your branded products.

Consequently, regulatory expectations now include an active environmental monitoring program as part of cGMP.  Guidelines from the US, European, and Japanese Pharmacopeia, as well as other regulatory agencies, point to genotypic bacterial and fungal identification at the species level.

Use MicroSEQ® ID Every Day
That is why Applied Biosystems developed the MicroSEQ® Microbial Identification System based on rDNA sequencing.  This rapid molecular system is the fastest and most accurate identification system for bacteria and fungi.

Routine use of the MicroSEQ ID System is ideal for small molecule and biopharmaceutical manufacturing, and microbial identification service laboratories. It can also be used in public health laboratories, cosmetics and personal care products manufacturing, food testing laboratories, and academic and research centers.

• Accurate genotypic bacterial identification based on the 16S rRNA gene
• Accurate genotypic fungal identification based on the D2 region of the 26S rRNA gene
• Easy workflow, high throughput, accurate results in five hours
• Fully validated and implemented in four months
• Enables 21 CFR Part 11 compliance
