If you do not have a business account with us then all testing must be prepaid via a credit or debit card. No credit terms will be available to customers without a business account.
Applying for a business account
To check out you will have to register for an online account, and during this registration you can choose to apply for a business account at the same time. Once the business account has been approved you will be able to pay via purchase order / invoicing in addition to credit/debit card. Please note that your first order must be paid for before your results are released.
Companies, universities, charities and citizen science groups can apply for a business account. Once your account is approved you will receive account-specific pricing, which is often discounted. If you would like to apply for an account in anticipation of a future order, please register here.
If you have any questions about this product, it’s suitability for your project, or anything else, book a free consultation with one of our molecular ecologists.
TaxaReveal™ Bacteria profiles bacterial community composition from eDNA water samples using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, with applications in water quality assessment, faecal source tracking, cyanobacterial surveillance, and aquatic ecosystem health evaluation.
Target locus: 16S ribosomal RNA gene. We utilise long-read metabarcoding sequencing for this testing with amplicons of ~1400bp. The long-read technology provides species-level identification for those species with reference barcodes, in comparison with short-read technologies which tend to only produce genus-level results.
Taxonomic scope: All bacterial phyla with 16S representation in our reference database. Cyanobacteria, Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, Actinobacteriota, and Planctomycetota are consistently well-resolved in freshwater contexts.
