Biosecurity and bioprotection
Biosecurity, phytosanitary requirements and identity preservation are critical issues in international trade. We have developed systems for the detection and quantification of pests and diseases in plants and soils, contaminants in product lines and genetically modified organisms in foodstuffs. We apply advanced technology to detect threats to biosecurity.Our capability for rapid identification of diseases and pests provides an important risk management tool for statutory authorities.
