New Delhi, September 28, 2026: As food brands and restaurants usher in the festive
season with increasing footfalls during celebrations, food safety becomes the
differentiator to establish long-term brand credibility and trust.
Seqlo by DSS Imagetech, a market leader in advanced molecular diagnostics,
bridges a critical gap in the food industry by empowering food brands to step up their
credibility and compliance and earn consumer trust with its advanced, real time PCR
testing kits.
The company’s modern, real-time PCR based testing kits offer highly specific, sensitive,
rapid and reliable results compared to traditional culture/ELISA-based methods,
offering laboratories and producers real-time molecular detection and quantification
in food, environmental, and biological samples. Seqlo’s real-time PCR (qPCR) kits
enable laboratories and manufacturers to test for and detect food allergens, food pathogens,
animal species and, GMO screening, and DNA extraction in the food and dairy Industries.
This enables restaurants, milk dairies and food manufacturers to make life-saving
decisions in real time all along the supply chain from sourcing, processing,
manufacturing to distribution, making these testing kits mandatory, especially when festive
rush leads to high consumer footfalls.
“Conventional food testing methods sometimes create delays in identifying potential
risks which can become hazardous when food is consumed in large quantities during
festive gatherings. Advanced molecular technologies deliver accurate and actionable
results within a few hours, enabling food businesses and laboratories to make timely
life-saving decisions. The kits help them to respond faster and strengthen quality-
control processes, supporting greater confidence of consumers in their products,”
said Dr. Karn Pratap Singh, Senior Scientist, R&D Centre, DSS Imagetech.
Seqlo’s pathogen detection solutions identify targets across milk and milk products, raw
and processed foods and meat. At the same time, its allergen testing range covers milk, egg,
gluten, soya, peanuts, sesame and crustaceans. Species detection solutions support
identification of animal species in products such as milk and meat, while GMO testing helps screen for genetically modified crops sequences.
Seqlo’s solutions are compatible with most commercially available real-time PCR machines
systems and are supported with the training and technical guidance of its in-house
experts, helping teams adopt and integrate molecular testing within existing
workflows.
