SAN FRANCISCO — Researchers developed a highly sensitive quantitative PCR, or qPCR, method for the detection and quantitation of dengue and Zika virus in individual mosquitoes using the portable Hyris bCUBE device, introducing a new tool for mosquito surveillance in areas facing outbreaks, according to data presented at ASM Microbe.

London, 24 June 2019: EMMAC, the European independent medical cannabis company, is pleased to announce an exclusive collaboration with Hyris Ltd, a UK-based biotechnology company, to develop a comprehensive library of genetic profiles of existing cannabis varieties, and to industrialise DNA-based methods for the identification of its unique branded cultivars.

A species-specific hydrolysis probe assay was developed, validated, and evaluated for the performance of the assay in accurately identifying the species of interest using the following analytical validation criteria:

PCR methods are the most commonly used DNA-based identity tool in the commercial food, beverage, and natural health product markets.

These methods are routinely used to identify foodborne pathogens and allergens in food. Proper validation methods for some sectors have been established, while they are still in development in other markets, such as botanicals. A survey of the literature indicates that some validation criteria are not addressed when developing PCR tests for botanicals.

We provide recommendations for qualitative real-time PCR methods for validating identity tests for botanical ingredients.
