Food/Water, qPCR, MultiPlex

A qPCR kit for Atlantic Cod Speciation

Accurate species identification is essential for protecting product integrity, meeting regulatory requirements, and verifying supply chains. The YouSeq Atlantic Cod Speciation qPCR kit enables rapid detection of Atlantic Cod DNA across a diverse range of sample types, including raw ingredients, processed foods, finished products, environmental monitoring samples, and non-food materials such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Engineered for reliable performance, the assay detects a highly conserved mitochondrial DNA target. As mitochondrial DNA is present in many copies per cell, the assay delivers excellent analytical sensitivity, making it well suited to identifying trace amounts of Atlantic Cod DNA, even in complex or highly processed samples.

Specificity is achieved through careful assay design and extensive in silico sequence analysis, helping ensure accurate discrimination between Atlantic Cod and non-target species. This provides confidence in both positive and negative findings across routine testing applications.

Each kit also incorporates an Internal Extraction Control, allowing laboratories to verify successful DNA extraction and PCR performance in every sample. This additional quality control step helps identify potential workflow issues and increases confidence when reporting negative results.

Optimised for fast, straightforward qPCR workflows, the YouSeq Atlantic Cod Speciation qPCR kit provides laboratories with a dependable solution for species authentication, contamination investigations, and quality assurance testing
