Testing for microbial contaminants in the environment.
AthoGen is a non-clinical testing service laboratory that uses advanced technology based on PCR/ESI-MS to help identify microorganisms, such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi. We accept unprocessed sample types such as swabs, soil or air and more. AthoGen services are cost-effective for our clients.
Simply collect specimens per AthoGen's instructions and ship them using our collection containers, shipment boxes and easy-to-understand order forms. Proper collection avoids cross-contamination within facilities and products.
Our environmental testing helps clarify whether sanitation programs are proper and effective. Careful environmental swabbing can identify specific trouble spots where extra efforts should be made to reduce the presence of harmful microorganisms.
When an environment is free of dangerous levels of harmful microorganisms, workforces stay healthier. In addition, there is less spoilage of products, greater shelf life, fewer product recalls and better brand reputation—which can improve bottom-line profitability. All of this means peace of mind for companies, customers and communities.
