Hamour Fish Detection Kit

Hamour fish is a highly demanded fish group consumed worldwide with a premium price tag. It's known for its unique taste and texture.

Due to its higher price and demand, it is prone to adulteration and mislabeling with alternative low-cost fish species. DNA verification is the only proven method to expose this kind of fraud. In many regions there are strict legal penalties if found to be selling adulterated hamour fish.


Our Hamour detection kit uses advanced DNA technology to detect the fraud in a matter of hours even in highly processed foods like fillets and cooked dishes. This kit is designed to target specific genes exclusively for hamour fish, for their presence in the DNA of the sample which minimizes the cross-reactivity.
