ADVANCING MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTICS

The xPRO™ Program

Since 2019, the xPRO™ Program has been the catalyst advancing molecular diagnostics across food quality and safety programs through the rapid development of innovative, custom testing solutions to further ensure public health.

Cutting-Edge Custom Molecular Assays

Recent innovations from the xPRO™ Program that are now available for application include: GENE-UP® Aspergillus PRO, VERIFLOW® BOTTLESAFE™, GENE-UP® ENVIROPRO™​, GENE-UP® QUANT SALMONELLA, and GENE-UP® NUTRAPLEX PRO.

The program began as an innovation engine born out of the Invisible Sentinel acquisition in which we partner directly with industry leaders to rapidly develop, validate, and commercialize cutting-edge molecular assays to respond to emerging needs.

    

Challenge the Status Quo

Traditionally, development of an average food safety molecular assay is a laborious process that takes two to three years to release into the market. Part of bioMérieux’s Augmented Diagnostics offering, the xPRO™ Program is the catalyst advancing molecular diagnostics, solving the food industry’s complex food safety operational challenges through direct partnership to diagnose the root cause of food safety obstacles and develop innovative, custom testing solutions to ensure public safety while minimizing waste and maximizing efficiency.

Our new Philadelphia-based facility at the Navy Yard, The bioMérieux Molecular and Genomics Innovation Center, will allow the program to continue its accelerated scaling efforts to meet existing and future in-market demands to continue offering uninterrupted support to industry-leading food, beverage, dietary supplement, and cannabis brands worldwide.

The xPRO™ Program is open to food, beverage, beer and wine, dietary supplement and cannabis companies of any size that are looking to improve their quality assurance and diagnostic testing services, and to date has partnered with a range of leading companies including White Labs, Jackson Family Wines, and Body Armor.

   

xPRO™ Assays

  • GENE-UP® PRO BEVERAGE

    Tailored Spoilage Analysis

    Ensure the highest-quality customer experience with the GENE-UP® PRO BEVERAGE assay, specifically developed for the beverage industry to target the bacteria and yeasts responsible for spoilage.
  • GENE-UP® PRO GENDER ID

    From Leaf to Analysis in Six Minutes

    The importance of early gender identification in cannabis is key to building operational efficiency and increasing profitability. With unmatched ease of use in sample preparation, the GENE-UP® PRO GENDER ID test kit brings you upfront, rapid identification compatible with both fresh and dried cannabis and hemp products.
  • GENE-UP® PRO HOP LATENT VIROID

    Increase Yield With Overall Plant Quality

    Hop Latent Viroid (HLVd) in cannabis can wreak havoc on cultivation and profitability — but it doesn’t have to be this way. Our hop latent viroid test kit delivers rapid results through a simple and reproducible process, allowing HLVd testing to be done early. Knowing if HLVd is present early decreases the possibility of introducing infected plants and clones into a healthy cannabis cultivation and helps prevent risks of spreading throughout your entire operation.
  • GENE-UP® PRO STEC / Salmonella

    Detect Salmonella and STEC in Cannabis with a single test.

    Double your throughput with a single test: GENE-UP® PRO STEC / Salmonella. With a single enrichment and simultaneous PCR detection, this test kit provides reliable detection of regulated pathogens in cannabis and hemp matrices in 24 hours.
  • GENE-UP® QUANT Salmonella

    True Quantification

    GENE-UP® QUANT Salmonella brings efficiency and ease with accurate quantification of Salmonella. With no incubation or enrichment required, you get reliable results with true quantification for informed and efficient intervention decisions.
