Bio-Shield and Symmetric methods received excellent results in the FAPAS Proficiency Test
for Histamine in canned fish (August - September 2019)
having a Z-score of 0.3 and - 0.1 respectively
Symmetric Green is a new, innovative Lateral Flow test series, utilizing state-of-the-art features for the quantitative detection of all the major Mycotoxins (Aflatoxin B1, B2, G1, G2, Deoxynivalenol, Zearalenone, Ochratoxin Α, Fumonisin, T-2/HT-2) in grains, nuts, cereals and other commodities including animal feed.
ProGnosis Biotech developed a safe and unified method, with very high accuracy and repeatability in the results, having also extremely low LOD and LOQ. For the first time one aqueous extraction can be used for all the mycotoxins, providing unique advantages to the users in terms of cost and time-saving. Symmetric Green products have also a low procedure time with a 5 minutes protocol for all the mycotoxins.
The aqueous buffer that the Symmetric Green products use for the extraction step, eliminates the adverse effects of organic solvents -such as methanol- on users involved in mycotoxin analysis on a regular basis. This extraction method is also environmentally friendly and in accordance with the basic principles of Green Chemistry regarding the use of less toxic chemicals and the unnecessary use of solvents.
Symmetric Green is a fast and easy method, offering a truly reliable solution to the users within the food safety sector. Symmetric technology, developed by ProGnosis Biotech, employs a revolutionary approach to rapid-testing methods. It is an easy-to-use technology without the need of high specialized personnel or high investment on equipment.
Following a period of rigorous R&D process, ProGnosis Biotech achieved to create a rapid test that can detect and quantify milk from different dairy animals in a sample.
Milk adulteration, a term widely used in the dairy industry to describe milk impurities, is observed in a variety of dairy products and is a common problem of the sector.
Specifically, Prognosis Biotech’s Rapid Test Cow can trace cow’s milk in sheep’s or goat’s milk and Rapid Test Goat can trace goat’s milk in sheep’s milk. Both tests, which are available in a format of 30 or 120 sticks, can quantify results from negative to >2% adulteration, while they can detect just 0.1 % of the mixture in milk (LOD). Quantitative Rapid tests have a low procedure time of 3 minutes producing no false positive-negative results due to the presence of highly selective antibodies.
The new Rapid Tests can easily identify results with more than 50% adulteration while their simple methodology and their clear-easy to interpret results make them suitable for testing in the field as well as in the laboratory.
Moreover, Quantitative Rapid tests can detect milk adulteration in cheese which unfortunately is a common fraud in the dairy industry and results in a final product inferior to that expected by the consumer.

Food quality labs inside the industry are quite different than biochemistry and R&D labs. People working inside the industry are responsible for various and different tasks. All of these projects run simultaneously and all of them are considered critical for the food safety and quality of the final product. Elisa test is by far considered the most difficult and laborious in contrast to other analytical methods run in routine examinations of food quality.
Having all that in mind, ProGnosis Biotech is devoted in producing immunological tests that are easy to use, reliable and with a user friendly interpolation of the results. Above all, our products can simplify the Elisa test procedure in order to help the chemist/ food safety scientist.
