eDNA

Single Species Detection

• PCR-based
• Specific target

Detection of

• Invasive species
• Endangered species
• Species of commercial values

Community Assemblage

• Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS)
• Broad range profiling

Profiling of a whole taxa

Sample types

• Freshwater
• Seawater
• Soil
• Animal diet

eDNA is the genetic materials that are recovered straight from the environment rather than the organisms from which they originate.

What can we detect using eDNA??

Applications of eDNA Tracking in BioMonitoring

• Identifying location of species at risk
• Identifying keystone and native species
• Detecting invasive species
• Detecting low abundance / endangered species
• Assist in ecosystem restoration and sustainable land use with accurate eDNA data

How to engage with us on eDNA?

1. Project Discussion and Design

• Initial Consultation: We’ll start by discussing your project requirements, objectives, and any specific considerations related to environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis.
• Project Design: Our team of experts will work with you to design a customized eDNA sampling plan that aligns with your research goals.

2. Sampling

• Sample Collection: We offer efficient and reliable eDNA sample collection services if required. Our molecular expert will guide you through proper sampling techniques to preserve the DNA for ensuring accurate results.
• Chain of Custody: We maintain a strict chain of custody to prevent contamination and ensure sample integrity during analysis in our lab.

3. Laboratory Analysis

• State-of-the-Art Lab: Our dedicated eDNA lab is equipped with cutting-edge technology for processing samples using NGS, PCR and other molecular tools.
• Quality Assurance: We adhere to ISO 17025 standards, ensuring robust and reproducible results.
• Cross-Contamination Prevention: Our lab protocols include the use of filter tips and careful handling to prevent cross-contamination.

4. Report

• Comprehensive Reports: After analysis, we provide detailed reports summarizing eDNA findings, including species identification and quantification.
• Application Based Reporting: Our team can assist with generating result based on the application and objective of your project.
