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.
This article offers an overview of how to leverage molecular biological tools to evaluate and enhance petroleum hydrocarbon remediation. It provides practical guidance and field case studies for a variety of microbial analyses, including quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), qPCR arrays, RT-qPCR, stable isotope probing (SIP), targeted taxonomic sequencing, and metagenome sequencing.
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 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.
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.
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 QuantArray®-BGC, which allows site managers to economically assess the genetic potential for a broad spectrum of biogeochemical processes. This analysis detects microbial groups and functional genes associated with biogeochemical processes, including sulfate reduction, sulfur oxidation, iron reduction, metal oxidation, nitrification, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, fermentation, acetogenesis, methanogenesis, among others.
This product brochure provides an overview of QuantArray®-MIC, which allows site managers to economically evaluate the potential for microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC). This analysis detects microbial groups and functional genes associated with MIC as well as oilfield souring, including sulfate reducing bacteria, acid producing bacteria, methanogens, iron oxidizers, slime formers, denitrifiers, and sulfur oxidizing bacteria.
This product brochure provides an overview of QuantArray®-NSZD, which allows site managers to economically evaluate the potential for natural source zone depletion (NSZD) of light non-aqueous phase liquid (LNAPL). This analysis detects microbial groups and functional genes associated with sulfate reduction, iron reduction, denitrification, fermentation, acetogenesis, methanogenesis, biosurfactant production, and slime production.
