AthoGen provides clear and detailed characterizations to help identify single or multiple microorganisms (bacteria, viruses and fungi) in your samples.
Our clients don’t tell us what to look for. They send us unprocessed or pre-extracted samples, and we use our own advanced technology to identify single or multiple microorganisms in your sample. It’s fast, comprehensive, precise, and more cost-effective than the current, standard culture-based method.
AthoGen, a full-service and non-clinical service lab, is backed by Abbott Laboratories. The objective in bringing Abbott’s scientific expertise and unique applications to the commercial laboratory is to address the non-clinical testing needs of biological research institutions, government agencies, private industry, public health labs and other organizations.
This technology offers an advanced approach to identifying and characterizing genomic material from microorganisms, including previously unknown microorganisms. It is based on an integration of both PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and mass spectrometry technologies, coupled with a vast database of unique DNA signatures of thousands of microorganisms.
The AthoGen services are not for use in diagnostic procedures.
