Top Tips – Routine MIC Monitoring

Summary:

This Top Tips bulletin outlines best practices for routine monitoring of microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) to detect emerging risks early and reduce asset damage, downtime, and maintenance costs. It highlights how molecular microbiological methods such as CENSUS® qPCR, QuantArray®‑MIC, and next‑generation sequencing provide accurate, trend‑based insights into microbial activity and corrosion risk.
