Animal meat-and-bone meal (MBM) is prohibited as an ingredient in plant-based stockfeeds in Australia, and in imported stockfeeds. AgriGen Biotech has developed highly sensitive and specific tests for DNA from a wide range of animal species that can detect as little as 0.125% MBM in stockfeed samples.

Agrigen Biotech's animal PCR tests do not suffer from cross-reactivity that other animal-specific tests suffer, providing one-step detection of animal DNA in feed samples. Unreliable and cumbersome downstream processing steps such as restriction enzyme digestion or DNA sequencing are not required.

The test has been evaluated in APLAC and Animal Health Australia Proficiency Testing Schemes with 100% correct results reported.
