TaxaReveal™ Mammals detects semi-aquatic and aquatic mammals from water-column eDNA samples, recovering species presence data without direct observation or physical trapping.

Target locus: Mitochondrial 12S ribosomal RNA gene, amplified using mammal-specific primer sets. Short amplicons have been prioritised to maximise sensitivity with degraded environmental DNA.

Taxonomic scope: Primarily semi-aquatic and aquatic mammals detectable from water-column samples (otter, water vole, mink, water shrew, beaver, muskrat). Detection of terrestrial mammals is feasible where surface runoff or drinking behaviour introduces eDNA, but sensitivity is lower than for taxa with direct aquatic contact.
