MxNS Microbial Identification

GMP-Certified Identification and Strain Differentiation Services

Our GMP-certified identification lab and molecular teams can support your identification needs using the MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry system, Vitek-MS, and Sanger Sequencing capabilities, and our experts use NGS technology and bioinformatics analysis to deliver WGS solutions. We offer strain differentiation and organism typing services, including:

Microbial Identification

Our service is designed to accurately identify the specific type of organism present, providing valuable information for effective treatment and prevention measures. Trust us to provide reliable and efficient microbial identification services.

Ribotyping

Microbial identification involves analyzing genetic material to determine unique ribosomal DNA patterns and comparing them to known databases. Our ribotyping services are reliable, efficient, and essential for many applications.

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)

Our Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) method allows for the precise analysis of an organism's genetic makeup, enabling accurate identification of strains and species. You can have confidence in the accuracy and reliability of their microbial identification results.

 

Importance of Microbial Identification

WGS provides in-depth DNA sequence information that allows for enhanced resolution of the entire genome and thus offers better discrimination between similar organisms than other identification or sub-typing methods. This can be important for root-cause investigations to identify the source strain correctly.

WGS and ribotyping can be effective tools for the industry when developing facility-specific environmental monitoring programs to determine if there are persistent or transient contaminating strains in their environment and to deep-dive into any problem areas. In addition, WGS can be used to monitor starter cultures for quality control.
