For over a decade, QuantArray®‑Petro, has provided engineers a high‑throughput qPCR platform that simultaneously quantifies functional genes involved in aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons, including BTEX, PAHs, MTBE, and alkanes. QuantArray®‑Petro provides defensible microbial lines of evidence to support monitored natural attenuation (MNA), evaluate enhanced bioremediation, and guide petroleum‑impacted site management decisions.
Used by practitioners around the world since 2012, this paper describes QuantArray®‑Chlor, a high‑throughput qPCR platform that simultaneously quantifies key microorganisms and functional genes involved in the biodegradation of chlorinated solvents. QuantArray®‑Chlor provides comprehensive, actionable data to support site assessment, remedy selection, and performance monitoring for chlorinated groundwater remediation.
This white paper explains how next‑generation sequencing (NGS) is used to characterize subsurface microbial communities and assess biodegradation processes at contaminated groundwater sites. By integrating NGS with qPCR, the approach provides powerful lines of evidence to support monitored natural attenuation (MNA), evaluate remediation performance, and inform data‑driven site management decisions.
This white paper explains how Microbial Source Tracking (MST) using CENSUS® qPCR identifies the host of fecal contamination (human, livestock, wildlife, etc). MST CENSUS® provides rapid, sensitive, and culture‑independent data to support water quality management, regulatory compliance, and targeted remediation decisions.
For more than 20 years, In Situ Microcosms (ISMs), have been used as an in‑well groundwater remediation tool that enables direct, side‑by‑side comparison of monitored natural attenuation (MNA), biostimulation, and bioaugmentation under actual aquifer conditions. ISMs integrate contaminant chemistry, geochemistry, and molecular microbiology to provide defensible, EPA‑relevant lines of evidence for remediation technology selection and…
Bio-Traps® are innovative passive samplers that reveal which microbes are truly active and driving biodegradation at contaminated sites. This paper explains how Bio-Traps® help practitioners confidently evaluate natural attenuation, assess remediation performance, and make better site-management decisions.
