Description

BIOTECON Diagnostics was founded in 1998 and currently has 55 employees. The company provides superior experience in microbiological service testing of food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics products.

The company’s focus is the development of rapid and innovative detection systems for pathogenic, spoilage and genetically modified organisms (GMO) based on real-time PCR. The foodproof® product line includes detection kits as well as sample preparation kits for the extraction and purification of DNA from multiple food matrices.

As an international biotechnology company, BIOTECON Diagnostics has been developing, producing and marketing these products through a continually growing network of local distributors and worldwide sales channel partners.
