Why Utilize Medicinal Genomics Proprietary PathogINDICAtor™ qPCR Technology?

Easy to Use: Bundled Assay (one stop shop). All of the necessary components to run a microbial test on your cannabis plant are bundled and
kitted together in one easy to use product.

Most Sensitive Assay on The Market: Our PathogINDICAtor™ qPCR assay is an extremely sensitive test. Our qPCR test can distinguish 5 fold
differences in quantity of target DNA molecule and can detect down to a few copies of DNA (sometimes even one).

Highly Scalable: Our PathogINDICAtor™ qPCR test provides a high throughput method (processing of large numbers of samples in short time),
because it is compatible with liquid handling automation stations for sample preparation (DNA/RNA isolation and loading onto qPCR plates).
Traditional petri dish plating is time consuming and not a viable method for high throughput microbial testing.

Extremely Fast: When using PathogINDICAtor™, the amplified DNA is being detected during the PCR reaction so there is no need for a separate
detection after as is in the case of conventional PCR (e.g. agarose gel electrophoresis with intercalating fluorescent dyes). Traditional petri dish
plating methods take days vs. hours to obtain testing results.

Embedded Assay Controls: We have built several controls into our assay to ensure assure quality control in every qPCR run.

Broad dynamic range of quantification: quantification can be performed over several orders of magnitude (up to 107-fold dynamic range)

No Clean Rooms via DREAM PCR: We have designed our proprietary assay with our patent pending DREAM PCR technology to ensure that your
test results are free of other PCR contamination artifacts. Our DREAM PCR technology eliminates the possibility that any past PCR products may
contaminate future tests. No expensive clean rooms required!

Data analysis: Our proprietary data analysis package provides you with highly informative and easy to understand results.

Reagent Rental Options: We make buying our assay and the necessary qPCR instruments easy and seamless. For more information on our
