OptiGene US Inc.

About Us

OptiGene has developed innovative products that support sensitive and specific detection of bacteria and viruses for use in the fields of plant health, food safety, veterinary medicine, environmental monitoring and healthcare. Bio-defence and forensics are also key markets that OptiGene addresses, either directly or through its growing network of international distributors. The company has exploited its expertise in both instrument design and enzymology to develop a sophisticated open platform that will support all isothermal amplification methods. Diagnostic tests are available based on our preferred isothermal method, known as LAMP. Ultra-sensitive molecular detection that has been constrained to laboratory use by highly-qualified personnel and taking hours to complete can now be deployed to point of application and run with very little training, producing results in single minutes.
