Our laboratory offers specialized services in agricultural microbiology, phytopathology, and molecular biology, focused on the diagnosis, characterization, and evaluation of microorganisms and agronomic inputs. These services support researchers, producers, companies, and institutions seeking evidence-based solutions for plant health and soil management.Please note that we are not ICA certified.
Phytopathological Diagnosis
Detection of symptoms associated with fungal, bacterial, or other plant pathogens in crops and plant material.
Microscopic and macroscopic examination to support the identification of disease causes.
Guidance for interpreting diagnostic results and defining the next steps for disease management.
Support for agricultural, research, and diagnostic needs related to plant health.
Identification by Classical Microbiology
Isolation and preliminary characterization of bacteria and fungi of agricultural, environmental, or biotechnological interest.
Evaluation of colony morphology, pigmentation, growth patterns, and basic physiological traits.
Use of standard microbiological methods to support genus-level or presumptive identification.
Suitable for screening isolates with potential as beneficial microorganisms, antagonists, or contaminants.
Molecular Identification
DNA-based identification of microbial isolates for more accurate taxonomic resolution.
Amplification and sequencing of genetic markers commonly used for bacterial and fungal identification.
Comparison against reference databases to confirm identity and relatedness.
Useful for research projects, strain validation, and the characterization of microorganisms with functional potential.
Agricultural Fungicide and Bactericide Susceptibility Tests
Evaluation of the sensitivity of fungal and bacterial isolates to agricultural control products.
In vitro testing to estimate product effectiveness under controlled conditions.
Support for product selection, resistance monitoring, and treatment optimization.
Valuable for research, validation of commercial products, and integrated disease management strategies.
