The Universal Molecular Identification (UMID) allows to identify the present microorganisms even if the sample is not a pure culture. It displays the direct semi-quantitative state of the microbial community.
So: Simply send samples
Properties of the UMID Technique
- all microorganisms in the sample may be identified
- the identification is performed without foreknowledge about the type of microorganisms
- no distraction or influence of the microbial community by the type of culturing
- unknown contaminating microorganisms may be classified
Application Areas
- environmental samples, e.g. water body samples, drinking water, soil samples, sediments, biofilms
- samples from geological measurement stations
- biogas plants or facilities for the fermentation of mixed populations
- damages by microbially influenced corrosion (MIC)
- industrial filling or coating facilities
- quality control of equipment, raw materials or products
- find sources of contamination in facilities or products
- starting point for the development of on-site tests
- moulds on wallpapers, wood or in silicone joints
- medical sample material with mixed infections
- and many more
