Eurofins GeneScan, the most trusted name in DNA testing for biotech (‘GMO’) food and feed products for over a decade, is pleased to offer the seafood industry, retailers and restaurants an advanced analytical solution for fish species identification, using FDA recommended DNA ‘barcode’ tests. Our state-of-the-art DNA laboratory is accredited to the international industry standards ISO/IEC 17025:2005 and AOAC International Guidelines for Laboratories Performing Analyses of Food.

Eurofins GeneScan can confirm your fish product’s identity and compliance with labeling requirements and determine, unmistakably, that a premium fish fillet like Red Snapper is not a lower valued substitute.*

Traditionally, morphological and histological approaches are used to classify fish and label them for distribution in the market place. These approaches can be time-consuming or subjective and inconsistent, especially when performed after cleaning and filleting the catch. Eurofins GeneScan’s DNA-based technology, in contrast, provides accurate and reliable identification of fish species by testing virtually any tissue sample, such as a small piece of fillet.
