The Most Accurate, Affordable, and Scalable Microbial Testing Solution for California
The PathoSEEK® Microbial Safety Testing Platform is the only method designed for and validated on cannabis flower, extracts, and a variety of infused products. PathoSEEK uses qPCR technology, an established safety testing method in the food industry and medicine that has been used in several peer-reviewed studies.
Fully Validated on Cannabis
Medicinal Genomics validated its PathoSEEK tests on a variety of cannabis matrices (flower, extract, and infused products) and provides extensive validation data upon request.
Used in ISO 17025 Labs
PathoSEEK is currently being used in ISO 17025 labs, and all Medicinal Genomics chemicals and reagents are manufactured in a facility certified to ISO 9001 standards. An ISO 17025 accredited lab in Massachusetts also contributed data for the manufacturer validation document.
Internal Controls Included
Every PathoSEEK test reaction includes an internal cannabis control, which gives assurance that each reaction has proceeded correctly and results can be trusted. No other cannabis microbial testing platform includes internal cannabis controls.
Decontamination Protocol
PathoSEEK kits include an optional decontamination protocol that prevents genetic material from a previous test from contaminating subsequent test runs. The DREAM™ PCR decontamination protocol simplifies lab operations by eliminating the need for isolated pre- and post-PCR cleanup areas to prevent cross-test contamination. Read More
Medicinal Genomics has multiplexed STEC and Salmonella into one assay as well as all four pathogenic species of Aspergillus. This is great news for labs with high volumes because more tests can fit on each instrument run.
Hear from Labs Using PathoSEEK
Medicinal Genomics has done extensive research into the microbiome of the cannabis plant and shared its findings through peer-reviewed papers, articles, and videos. The hope is that these materials will educate the cannabis community about the many advantages of qPCR as a microbial testing method.
