GeneSystems

GeneSystems was a French biotechnology company specializing in the development of rapid molecular diagnostic systems for pathogen detection. The company's core technology, the GeneDisc platform, utilizes real-time PCR to provide fast and accurate results for environmental monitoring and food safety applications. By automating the detection process, GeneSystems enabled the identification of pathogens like Legionella, E. coli, and Listeria in hours rather than the days required by traditional culture methods. The company was acquired by Pall Corporation in 2008 to enhance its rapid microbiology portfolio for industrial and life sciences customers. Today, the GeneSystems technology remains a key component of Pall's environmental and food safety testing solutions.
