Whether you’re working on soil, animal or any other kind of sample, understanding the microbiome could be an important part of your research. We provide sequencing services that allow our clients to better understand the microbiome and to act on valuable research-based insights.
We have supported many corporate clients to help them understand how the microbiome can add value to their research and help them achieve their goals. Contact us to learn more about how our experienced team can support your study.
Our clients benefit from working with leading researchers in microbial ecology to apply best practices for sequencing soil and plant microbiomes. Our services can help clients to increase crop yields and identify potentially harmful pathogens in the soil.
Our services aid development of animal feed products and can provide insights needed to optimize animal health.
If you’re working in Forestry, Oil and Gas, Mining or Extraction industries, understanding microbiomes can help to minimize microbially induced corrosion and meet environmental regulations.
For Agriculture, Animal Health and Natural Resources
The most common and economical approach for analysis of composition of microbial communities. Based on high-throughput sequencing of PCR amplicons for prokaryotic communities (16S V4, V1-V3 or V4_skin), eukaryotic communities (18S), fungal communities (ITS2), and archaeal communities (16S V4-V5).
An advanced approach for analysis of community composition and functional analysis. Based on high-throughput sequencing and analysis of total DNA.
Shallow shotgun metagenome sequencing (SSMS) involves sequencing samples at a shallower depth than is applied in full shotgun metagenome sequencing.
Quantitation of total microbial density or specific microbial populations which targets the whole community, as it provides the absolute abundance of the total bacteria community.
