Early-warning screening for pathogen-associated microbes.
Microbe-ID is a QAID-designed DNA microarray for broad microbial screening. It screens for multiple pathogen-associated microorganisms in one test as an early-warning tool alongside established microbiological and pathogen-testing workflows.
A QAID-designed DNA microarray product: Microbe-ID microarray slides, run in your own laboratory and analyzed in the QAID App.
Food and beverage producers, cosmetics, supplement manufacturers, and any operation with environmental-monitoring obligations.
One run screens for many pathogen-associated targets, giving an early signal of where to focus confirmatory testing. It complements, and does not replace, established confirmatory pathogen tests.
DNA from pathogen-associated microorganisms and possible post-process contamination, as early signals for follow-up with confirmatory testing. DNA detection alone does not show whether organisms are viable.
Microarray data are analyzed in the QAID App, using product-specific workflows and reference libraries. Access to the QAID App is by subscription.
QAID Microbe-ID microarray slides, a compatible microarray scanner, and a QAID App subscription — with training and implementation support from QAID scientists.
Implementation, laboratory training, result interpretation and ongoing scientific support from QAID scientists, through QAID Training & Consulting.
