Applied Food Technologies (AFT) offers a DNA-based species identification service for seafood which meets FDA’s guidance by relying on adequately authenticated samples rather than publicly available databases. AFT compares all fish to a database generated from taxonomically identified references. Because the FDA’s current guidance states that they will only make regulatory decisions based on identifications using adequately authenticated standards, AFT helps a firm comply with the FDA’s guidance. AFT clients for seafood species testing have included the FDA, NOAA, state governments, distributors, retailers, grocery store chains, and restaurants, among others.
