GMO Testing

Genetic ID's proprietary technologies yield the precise, quantitative results you need—in a single analysis for a single price.
To profit in the non-GMO market, you need fast, reliable assurance that your products are non-GMO. Genetic ID's proprietary technologies yield the precise, quantitative results you need—in a single analysis for a single price.

Our Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) testing technology is the most precise method to detect GMOs. PCR is recognized as the GMO testing standard for government and industry worldwide.

Genetic ID's PCR testing protocols, the most rigorous in the industry, leave no room for error:

  • Detects all GMOs in a wide range of foods: Genetic ID can reliably detect every GMO on the market in both raw crops and processed foods.

  • Triple-checks every result: While most PCR labs report results based on one or two primer sets, Genetic ID is the only lab that uses three primer sets on every analysis, thus ensuring more consistent and accurate test results.

  • Uses larger sample sizes: Genetic ID routinely uses sample sizes 10 times larger than many labs. For example, we use samples of 10,000 soybeans, allowing analyses that are both more sensitive and reliable.

  • Yields precise quantitative results: Genetic ID provides precise quantitative results—down to 0.1 percent.

  • Checks for intact DNA: Faulty DNA extraction can result in degraded or undetectable DNA—leading to false negatives. Genetic ID uses the most careful extraction procedure to test for the presence of DNA before further analysis.

  • Report results fast: A three to five-day turnaround is standard; 24- and 36-hour turnarounds are available on request.
