DNA metabarcoding service
DNA metabarcoding is the genetic analysis of mixed samples consisting of a large number of individuals. DNA metabarcoding service can detetct the organisms in a single analysis step. Samples do not need to be sorted and identified individually as in classical methods. Whole samples from thousands of individuals can be homogenized and analyzed using high-throughput (NGS) Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology. This provides complete species lists and the composition of species within a sample in one step.
All samples that potentially contain more than one type of DNA, individual or organism are classified as mixed or bulk samples.
For example:
- Insect trap samples,
- Malaise trap samples,
- Sticky trap samples,
- Soil samples,
- Faeces / stool samples,
- Stomach contents,
- Water samples,
- zooplankton samples,
- phytoplankton samples,
- processed foods
We are happy to advise you on a case-by-case basis on your individual sample and the DNA metabarcoding service!
