Plant health

Awareness of plant health is ever more important. Understanding the cause of the crop damage allows you to take targeted action and secure the yield of the quality of the plants. A lack of nutrients can lead to deficiency diseases. Fungi, insects, bacteria and/or viruses can also cause problems.

DisinfectorCheck

Many plant pathogens (viruses, bacteria, fungi and nematodes) spread via the water recirculation system. To prevent contaminated water from being used in the recirculation system, many greenhouse growers install a disinfector. But there is no guarantee that this expensive investment will deliver the expected results. If you want to be sure that your disinfector is working properly, ask us for a DisinfectorCheck. For this analysis, we take a water sample before and after the disinfector.

DisinfectorCheck

Plant Doctor

When your crops are damaged, sick or otherwise abnormal, it’s important to uncover the cause quickly. Only then can the correct treatment be applied and the risk of further spread reduced. Plant Doctor by Eurofins assess the nature of an infestation, using a range of advanced technologies

DNA Multiscan

DNA Multiscan allows you to monitor the development of fungi and bacteria at a very early stage. You can quickly determine the presence of pathogens in plants, substrate and water. DNA Multiscan can also detect contamination of growing materials such as growing layers, fust and tools.

DNA Multiscan

Next Generation Sequencing

Eurofins can also analyze the microbial community in the water or substrate using microbiome profiling. This method provides highly sensitive identification and classification of the microbial population in your sample by reading the DNA code.
