This article discusses considerations for designing Min-Trap® studies as well as the necessary procedures for incorporating these passive mineral samplers at a site. From capturing in situ reactive mineral formation for the evaluation of remediation strategies, to understanding PFAS contaminant distribution in the subsurface, the Min-Trap® approach has broad applicability, is repeatable, and avoids expensive…
This article provides an important link between qPCR data for the benzylsuccinate synthase gene (bssA) and estimated rate constants for anaerobic toluene biodegradation.
This open access book synthesizes important advances in the assessment and management of soil and groundwater systems contaminated with petroleum hydrocarbons. Chapter 10: Molecular Biological Tools Used in Assessment and Remediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbons in Soil and Groundwater is co-authored by Dora M. Taggart and Trent A. Key.
This white paper provides an overview of important types of biofuels, their production methods, and associated environmental concerns. CENSUS® qPCR and next generation sequencing can be used to monitor biofuel systems and assess the biodegradation of biofuels.
This product brochure provides an overview of CENSUS® qPCR assays related to the aerobic cometabolism of trichloroethene (TCE), dichloroethane (DCE), and vinyl chloride (VC).
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).
This product brochure provides an overview of CENSUS® qPCR assays related to the reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethenes (PCE, TCE, DCE, and vinyl chloride), including quantification of key bacteria (Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, Desulfuromonas, etc.) and functional genes (TCE reductase and two vinyl chloride reductase genes).
This brochure provides guidance on selecting appropriate molecular biological tools, including QuantArray®, CENSUS® qPCR, SIP, the abiotic panel, and in situ microcosms, based on the chlorinated compounds present and the chosen remedial approach.

This product brochure provides an overview of Min-Trap® PFAS, a passive mineral sampler that provides a field-based method to measure how per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) partition between groundwater and soil or engineered media. These results can be critical for understanding plume longevity, bioavailability, and treatment performance.
