Microbial identification based on the gene sequencing has become the important tool for microbiologists. We offer following microbial identification services based on DNA sequencing. Identification up to species level and sometimes strain level is possible by this method.

Endotoxins are potentially toxic natural compounds of the cell wall of gram negative bacteria. The material can induce fever and acute febrile shock when present in miniscule amounts in blood. The test for bacterial endotoxin is used to detect or quantify endotoxins using Limulus Amoebocyte Lysate (LAL) which is an extract of blood cells from the horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus). Bhat Bio-Tech follows USP <85> Bacterial Endotoxins Test and EP 2.6.14 as the methods to detect or quantify endotoxins that may be present in or on the sample. We have highly trained personnel in both techniques and in laboratory procedures to assure that any glassware or apparatus used is endotoxin free or non-pyrogenic.

Bioburden is the population of viable microorganisms on or in a sterile product. FDA and ISO guidance recommend characterization of the microorganisms recovered from a bioburden test or by environmental monitoring. Bhat Bio-Tech offers tests to provide following information:
