Pathogen Detection with Pork MultiPath™
We’ve created highly sensitive assays that can detect multiple pathogens
Detects pathogens (listed below) in either the respiratory or enteric MultiPathTM test.
Includes controls to validate every test result.
Rapidly generates results on large numbers of samples with fast data turnaround times.
Identifies different genetic variants of relevant pathogens.
Includes control tests to validate RNA and/or DNA sample integrity.
Ground-Breaking Technology
Pork MultiPathTM focuses on pathogen detection. Our technology is unsurpassed in its ability to co-detect multiple pig pathogens with sensitivity and specificity for multiple pathogen detection superior to current industry methods. All this adds up to data that empowers vets and farmers to significantly reduce risk of disease and improve yield.
Respiratory Pork MultiPath™ detects and quantifies:
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serovar 1, 5, 7, 15 (APP1, APP5, APP7, APP15)
Streptococcus suis, serotype 2, 3 (SS generic; SS2, SS3)
Haemophilus parasuis (HP) – Also known as Glaesserella parasuis (GP)
Pasteurella multocida (PM)
Mycoplasma hyorhinis (MHR)
Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae (MHP)
Porcine circovirus 2 (PCV-2)
Enteric Pork MultiPath™ detects and quantifies:
Lawsonia intracellularis ( LI)
Brachyspira pilosicoli (BP)
Brachyspira hyodysenteriae (BH)
Salmonella enterica (SE) incl. serovar Typhimurium (SEty)
Escherichia coli (EC) incl. F4, F5, F6, F18, F41, LT1, ST1, ST2, STX2e, eaeA
Porcine rotavirus (RV) RVA, RVB, RVC

Testimonials
“As a veterinarian in the pork industry, I am excited to now have commercial access to Pork MultiPath™ panels for enteric and respiratory pathogens. We have never before had the ability to detect so many pathogens from a single sample. This surveillance capacity will be very useful as we seek to continually improve herd health and antimicrobial stewardship.”
“We turned to Genics Pork MultiPath™ pathogen detection technology to solve inaccuracies in identifying severe health issues in some of our pigs. Where other laboratory-based technologies had failed, Pork MultiPath™ succeeded, and as a result we’ve been able to optimise our vaccination program and become more efficient in improving our herd health and animal performance.”
“Australian Pork is thrilled to be partnering with Genics on such an important project, protecting Australia’s pig herd health. With African Swine Fever in our region, there’s never been a more important time to look to new technologies, such as Genics’ MultiPath™ to care for our animals via early detection of animal disease.”
“Pork MultiPath™ gave our team the evidence we needed to implement data-driven management decisions to improve our production systems.”
