For safer food - BIOTECON Diagnostics

Simple and fast identification of microorganisms

The analysis of biomolecules with MALDI time of flight mass spectrometry or shortly

MALDI-TOF MS has become broadly accepted in routine laboratories around the

world. Thanks to a pretty simple straightforward sample preparation protocol of freshly

growing colonies onto a standard steel MALDI target plate, followed by an automated

acquisition of “proteotypic” fingerprint and subsequent bioinformatics pattern profiling,

an identification of unknown samples is literally done in seconds.

The easy to use, robust benchtop MALDI-TOF MS fits in every lab environment and

provides faster and highly reliable time-to-result, along with low consumable costs.

Additional, easy to learn software components allow individual processing of raw data

and – if needed – simple amendments of the included reference library.

BIOTECON Diagnostics is a leading company for rapid microbiological testing methods

in food and beverage industries. We develop, manufacture, and distribute molecular

diagnostic screening/identification tests, automation workflows and now tailor made

MALDI-TOF MS solutions - including instrumentation and software.

Fast: 96 samples are analyzed in less than 20 minutes
