The BioPrep
An automated whole food sample preparation device, that will extract and purify DNA from any food or liquid sample. This device will be able to be used as a stand-alone unit or integrated with PCR technology to create the BioSage.
The BioSage
The BioPrep combined with automated real-time isothermal PCR for detecting and identifying multiple plant, animal, or zoonotic bacteria at the same time in the field, processing plant, or laboratory. The BioSage will be a turnkey device that prepares and analyzes a food sample for food borne illness within 2 hours. By combining automated sample preparation with sophisticated contaminant detection and analytics (PCR), the BioSage offers an effective and rapid means of identifying contaminants at their earliest possible point, on-site, anywhere in the food chain, before reaching consumers. The BioSage will be a rapid detection system that can be used for any type of animal or plant sample including liquids such as milk, meats, fruits, and vegetables.
Issued Patents
Ag-Defense Systems has two issued patents covering both the apparatus and method for the BioSage:
Apparatus: US9,057,064
Method: US9,994,840
