Mixture Analysis

Detect and deconvolute multiple components in complex and challenging mixtures.

Real-world products are rarely pure. Mixture analysis answers the harder question — not just "is it the right species" but "what else is in there" — even when components have overlapping genetic signatures.

How it works

A single microarray run detects multiple species at once and reports the relative DNA signal for each detected target, not just a present/absent call.

Where it's used

Multi-ingredient extracts, blended seafood, processed meat products, and any matrix where a multi-species label claim needs checking.

What you get

Individual species detection results with relative signal and assay controls. Relative DNA signal is not the same as ingredient mass proportion.
