Description
Microbial Insights QuantArray? is a hybrid technology combining the highly parallel detection of DNA microarrays with the accurate and precise quantification of qPCR into a single platform.
QuantArray?, an advanced qPCR method, quantifies a broad spectrum of contaminant degrading microorganisms and functional genes in a single analysis for more comprehensive and cost-effective evaluation of biodegradation potential. Microbial Insights offers five versions of QuantArray?.
QuantArrays? use nanoliter fluidics and solution-phase qPCR ? to quantify, in parallel, numerous genes (see below) in individually monitored reactions.
QuantArray?-MIC an advanced qPCR method, rapidly detects and quantifies key microorganisms and functional genes responsible for microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) and oilfield souring in a single analysis.
QuantArray?-Chlor quantifies key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of chlorinated solvents such as TCE.
QuantArray?-Petro quantifies a suite of functional genes involved in aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation of BTEX, PAHs, and other petroleum hydrocarbons.
QuantArray?-BGC quantifies ? simultaneously in a single analysis ? a broad spectrum of microorganisms and genes involved in biogeochemical processes.
QuantArray?-NSZD quantifies ? simultaneously in a single analysis ? a broad spectrum of microorganisms, processes and genes involved in biodegrading LNAPL for assessing natural source zone depletion
