Accugenix, the leader in genetic microbial identification and characterization services, announced today the addition of 283 new species to its extensive Bacterial Library, bringing the total number of unique bacterial DNA sequences on file to over 2400. This year’s update grew the company’s world renowned reference sequence library by 10%, further increasing an already high description success rate of 97% and bolstering Accugenix’s claim to significantly higher rates of species level identifications than competing labs.
The 2008 Bacterial Library release includes newly identified bacterial species and latest nomenclature for organisms that underwent taxonomical changes. With this library release, Accugenix continues to provide the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, cosmetics, nutraceutical, and other manufacturers with rapid, accurate and cost-effective resources to maintain a sterile, safe and compliant environment for consumers. The September release follows an April release of its updated Fungal Library, which also enjoyed dramatic growth, a clear sign that the Accugenix microbial identification process is superior within the industry.
According to the CEO, Doug Smith, “The high volume of customer samples analyzed by Accugenix allows us to build and maintain a large reference sequence library. We regularly update our libraries with microbes that might impact consumer safety not only because our clients want to offer safe products, but also because we might come across some insightful connections in microbiology that could lend powerful solutions in science”. Accugenix’s trendable and trackable data is imperative to clients’ Environmental Monitoring programs, identifying and sourcing contamination, and Product Release Testing. At Accugenix, we have the capability to test and analyze samples within 7 hours of receipt. Our knowledgeable data analysts take the time to manually review every report generated to ensure an accurate sequence ID.
Accugenix (accugenix.com) will release the 2008 Bacterial Library to customers starting September 4, 2008. The company also offers periodic free educational seminars on microbial identification and characterization techniques.
