Initial Diagnostics:
Submission of Material to be propagated in CPCNW facilities as per CPCNW standard operating procedures in effect at the time of performance.
Diagnostic PCR testing and high-throughput sequencing to determine pathogen infection status on domestic or imported Material, conducted as per CPCNW standard operating procedures in effect at the time of performance.
Virus Elimination:
One (1) attempt at virus elimination of pathogens detected in Material held at CPCNW that has undergone the Initial Diagnostic contracted service. Virus elimination will be performed using crop-specific methodology conducted as per CPCNW standard operating procedures in effect at the time of performance.
Confirmation of the success or failure of the attempt will be conducted as per CPCNW standard operating procedures in effect at the time of performance.
A maximum of two (2) consecutive attempts at virus elimination may be made, each requiring submission of a new contract and payment fees.
Final Diagnostics:
Diagnostic PCR testing and high-throughput sequencing on domestic or imported Material held at the CPCNW that either i) tested negative for targeted pathogens during the contracted service, or ii) contained pathogens that were successfully removed during the Virus Elimination contracted service.
Diagnostic testing will be conducted as per CPCNW standard operating procedures in effect at the time of performance.
