Why Choose Whole Genome Sequencing?
This brochure provides guidance on how to choose the right sequencing approach for a project. The differences and benefits between next generation sequencing (NGS) and whole genome sequencing (WGS) are discussed.
The Basics of Whole Genome Sequencing
This brochure provides an overview of whole genome sequencing (WGS), also known as shotgun metagenomics, from the basic workflow to the significance of the data produced. WGS is untargeted, qualitative analysis offering species-level resolution and direct detection of functional genes.
Reference Guide for Using MMMs in Midstream Oil and Gas
This brochure provides an overview of the molecular microbiological methods (MMMs) relevant to addressing microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) in the context of midstream oil and gas operations. Relevant applications for CENSUS® qPCR, QuantArray®-MIC and next generation sequencing are discussed.
Closing the Nitrogen Cycle with MBTs
This brochure provides a list of CENSUS® qPCR assays related to processes in the nitrogen cycle, including nitrification, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, and anaerobic ammonia oxidation.
Min-Trap® Brochure
This product brochure provides an overview of the Min-Trap® passive mineral sampler which collects direct mineralogical data without the need for drilling or coring. Min-Traps® are broadly applicable to remediation approaches that rely on the formation, dissolution, and/or transformation of solid-phase minerals to sequester or degrade contaminants.
Employing MBTs for Water Reuse and Corrosion Assessment
This brochure examines how MBTs can be leveraged to improve water quality and corrosion management programs. Results from QuantArray®-BGC, QuantArray®-Petro, and Microbial Source Tracking can inform water reuse practices in constructed wetlands and municipal and industrial wastewater treatment. Likewise, QuantArray®-MIC and next generation sequencing can provide important information for microbiologically influenced corrosion assessment.
Transforming Mining with Molecular Biological Tools
This brochure explores how data from molecular biological tools can enhance the efficiency, sustainability, and environmental responsibility of mining operations. CENSUS® qPCR, next generation sequencing, and assay development can be applied to three key areas: acid rock drainage, bioleaching and rare earth element (REE) recovery, and bioprospecting.
Microbial Analyses to Aid Landfill Management
This brochure explores how microbial testing can aid landfill management. Several microbial processes, including hydrolysis, fermentation, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis, are important to landfill functioning and can be monitored using QuantArray®-BGC and next generation sequencing.
CENSUS®-Cometabolism Brochure
This product brochure provides an overview of CENSUS® qPCR assays related to the aerobic cometabolism of trichloroethene (TCE), dichloroethane (DCE), and vinyl chloride (VC).
CENSUS®-BTEX Brochure
This product brochure provides an overview of CENSUS® qPCR assays related to the aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes (BTEX), methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE).
