Why choose GenoScreen?

Scientific and regulatory expertise
With a rigorous and transparent approach, we develop qPCR methods compliant with EFSA standards, particularly for residual DNA and GMM detection in finished products. Each step is validated under high-quality standards. Our methods are designed in compliance with ISO 9001 and can be adapted to GCLP and GMP requirements.
Accurate and actionable results
We provide complete reporting formats, including absolute or relative quantification and analytical validation according to your needs. Each project comes with detailed reports outlining development and optimization steps. We ensure regular interactions throughout the project with Go/No-Go decision checkpoints to guarantee optimal quality control and full transparency.

Flexibility and personalized support
We design custom primers and probes (MGB, TaqMan, etc.) to ensure performance and specificity. Our client support is tailored, with regular communication, fast troubleshooting, and close monitoring at every stage. Our solutions are compatible with a wide variety of sample types: powders, liquids, environmental, or biological matrices.
Responsive and efficient service
Experience fast turnaround times (6 to 8 weeks) for qualitative or quantitative analyses, fully tailored to your needs. Receive personalized support with a dedicated contact for smooth follow-up from design to results interpretation.
Our custom qPCR services are applicable across multiple sectors:

Human Health & Microbiota : Quantification of specific strains and gene-of-interest quantification
