Molecular pathogen detection has never been simpler, faster, or more flexible. For over 50 years, GENE-UP® has provided an intuitive, real-time PCR solution. Our real-time PCR solution simplifies workflows, decreases cross-contamination risks, and gives you rapid results that speed up critical manufacturing decisions.Gene Up is powered by BIOMÉRIEUX's expertise in molecular biology and microbiology, along with its commitment to innovation and quality. BIOMÉRIEUX has a long history of developing cutting-edge diagnostic tools, and Gene Up is no exception.
In addition to its speed and accuracy, Gene Up is designed with user-friendliness in mind. Its intuitive interface and straightforward workflow make it easy for healthcare providers to incorporate Gene Up into their daily practice, without requiring specialized training or expertise.
GENE-UP® gives you AOAC, AFNOR, and Microval Validated ready-to-use test kits for your most pressing food safety concerns. The simple workflow is consistent with each test, minimizing training and improving efficiencies.
Current Test Kits Include:
GENE-UP® uses industry-leading PCR-based technology to detect pathogens in food and environmental samples. It is a molecular diagnostic tool that uses a technology called polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect the presence of specific genetic material (DNA or RNA) from pathogens in patient samples. Here's a step-by-step overview of how Gene Up works:
Sample collection: The first step in using Gene Up samples for testing: Dairy, Meat, Produce, Processed Foods, Beverages, Ingredients and Pharmacueticals.
Sample preparation: The sample is then prepared for analysis using standard laboratory techniques, such as DNA or RNA extraction.
PCR amplification: Next, the prepared sample is added to a PCR reaction mix containing specific primers and probes that target the genetic material of the pathogen of interest. The PCR reaction mix is then cycled through a series of temperature changes that cause the DNA or RNA to be amplified, resulting in millions of copies of the target genetic material.
Detection: The amplified genetic material is then detected using fluorescence-based technology. If the target genetic material is present in the sample, the PCR reaction will produce a fluorescent signal that can be detected and analyzed by the Gene Up instrument.
Analysis: The Gene Up instrument analyzes the fluorescent signal to determine whether the pathogen of interest is present in the sample, and if so, how much of it is present. The results are then reported to the healthcare provider.
Overall, Gene Up is a powerful and accurate diagnostic tool that can rapidly detect the presence of a wide range of pathogens using a simple and streamlined workflow.
