Select a service area to learn how EBPI and Microbial Insights support your project with the most advanced molecular diagnostic tools available — delivered with full Canadian logistics and technical support.
Environmental Remediation
Know which microorganisms are active in your contaminated aquifer. Molecular qPCR and sequencing tools provide direct, defensible evidence of biodegradation activity for MNA documentation, enhanced bioremediation design, and site closure.
- Dehalococcoides & reductive dechlorination gene quantification
- Census® qPCR and QuantArray® multi-target panels
- Bio-Trap® passive in-well samplers supplied by EBPI
- PLFA biomass and community stress analysis
- NGS / metagenomics for full community profiling
- Chlorinated solvents, PHCs, PFAS, 1,4-dioxane, explosives
Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC)
Identify and quantify the organisms driving corrosion in your pipelines, storage tanks, and industrial water systems. Molecular methods detect up to 99% of organisms present versus fewer than 1% by conventional culture methods.
- SRB, SRA, APB, IOB, NRB, and methanogen quantification
- Census® qPCR and QuantArray®-MIC (30+ targets)
- NGS community profiling and metagenomics
- Biocide program optimization and treatment monitoring
- Oil & gas pipelines, storage tanks, cooling water, mining
- FieldQuant™ rapid on-site testing available
Microbial Source Tracking (MST)
Know exactly where your water contamination is coming from. Host-specific DNA markers identify whether fecal contamination in surface water, groundwater, or recreational beaches originates from human sewage, cattle, dogs, birds, or wildlife.
- Human (HF183), cattle, dog, avian, swine & wildlife markers
- Census® MST qPCR — results in gene copies per 100 mL
- EBPI local water sample filtration and DNA extraction
- Beaches, source water protection, agricultural watersheds
- Regulatory-grade data for health units & conservation authorities
- Shellfish harvest areas, urban stormwater, DWSP plans
