At the beginning of 2020, CONGEN was one of the first German companies to develop a molecular biological test for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. The continuously increasing demand for PCR tests is being met by CONGEN with great effort and engagement. The test is characterized by a high level of specificity and sensitivity, as independent […]
Manual DNA extraction methods are often very time-consuming and the outcome (success) strongly depends on the experience of the laboratory staff, the extraction method and the sample matrix. The extraction of nucleic acids is a major challenge for food labs caused by the high variability of sample matrices. Inhibitory substances like alcohols (ethanol, isopropanol), tensids […]
As one of the first manufactures CONGEN designed a molecular test kit for the detection of SARS-CoV-2 . This method enables the qualitative and specific detection of SARS-CoV-2 RNA from human respiratory samples. Until the first development, CONGEN expanded the production capacities, continuously. So far, CONGEN offered more than 1.5 million analyzes for the health […]
To secure precise result laboratories need to control their devices periodically. SureCycle® is a thermosensitive duplex real-time PCR to control the correct temperature during the annealing- and denaturation step. The kit is designed to control compatibility of plastics like tubes, plates and/or foiles and to verify the correct temperature of the real-time cycler. SureCycle® is […]
Every 3.5 seconds 1 human die; 7 to 9 million people each single year caused by sepsis. Sepsis is a life-threatening illness caused by your body’s response to an infection. Everybody can get sepsis caused by infection connected with different types of microorganisms as bacteria, viruses, funghi or parasites. Sepsis can lead to shock, multiple […]
August 2019 – The American biochemist Kary Mullis, born on 28th of December 1944, died on 7th of August 2019. He became famous for his significant contribution to the development of Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). His invention has been awarded with the highly esteemed Nobel Prize in Chemistry which he received together with Michael Smith […]
