eDNA Monitoring
Environmental DNA (eDNA) consists of genetic materials present in environmental samples, such as soil, water, and sediment, derived from aquatic organisms and their traces, excretions, excrements, etc. Genetic monitoring describes quantitative analyses of target species in eDNA using the real-time PCR (or qPCR) technique with the verified primer set and TaqMan probe having high specificity and sensitivity. It is a highly cost-efficient, non-invasive, and environment-friendly methodology that aids scientists to monitor the presence and quantity of endangered or rare species in the ecosystem. AquaGenTech provides genetic monitoring services with verified genetic markers from eDNA samples and develops new genetic markers of target species for accurate and rapid detection.
