Microbiology Laboratory
Botulism
Laboratory diagnosis of diseases caused by Clostridium botulinum and its neurotoxins has been our business for 20 years. We would like to support you on the way to a valid diagnosis. In addition to cultivating the bacteria, in-house antigen and antibody ELISAs, we also offer toxin typing for various sample matrices.
Microbiology
No matter if you are working with large animals like cattle, horse, pigs
or you are focusing on companion animals like dogs or cats, our microbiology lab offers a comprehensive list of microbiological analyses and tests with a special expertise on Clostridia. Highlight is our MALDI-TOF based identification and comparison of the microbes.
Mastitis
The clinical signs of mastitis alone do not always allow for identifying the pathogen.
We help you to find the causative agent and the appropriate treatment/antibiotic based on valid testing for resistance.
Microbial Ecology
The animal health status decides on the performance of the animal and in the end on the operating profit of the farm.
And animal health depends to a great extent on the interaction of microbes, the microbiome.
Our FBF analyses help to control and to optimize the microbiome, leading to better health and performance. If needed, consulting by our veterinarians either by phone or on-site improves this process.
Analyses of Food and Feed Samples
In our laboratory all kinds of food and feed samples can be analysed with a special focus on Clostridia and their toxins.
The results support the quality control of your products or help to answer any microbiological issues you might have.
Vaccines
In Zusammenarbeit mit unseren Partnern bieten wir auf der Basis der aus Ihren Proben isolierten Keime einen bestandsspezifischen vaccine for pathogens or toxins isolated from your samples is not available, we would be happy to supply you with auto-vaccines with the support of our partners.
