DNA technology

Did you know that we use specialized DNA technology to identify your specific diseases and pests even better? What makes this method unique is its extremely high sensitivity. With DNA technology, we determine how many traces of a possible pathogen are present. This quantity says something about the infection pressure of a pathogen present. The results help you take very targeted effective treatment or control measures.
