Production Microbiomes

Total microbiome insights for efficient production

Enhanced pathogen detection

Early detection of every microbe in a single sample, including novel pathogens often missed by targeted diagnostic tests.

Plankton threat surveillance

In one sample detect harmful algae and jellyfish that threaten livestock welfare.

Informed vaccination strategies

Ensure vaccine programmes are protecting livestock against the strains of pathogens in their immediate environment.

Non-invasive sampling

Collect representative microbiome data of your entire livestock population with anaesthetic bath water sampling.

Detecting Pathogens in the Marine Environment

In the marine environment livestock are exposed to a diverse and dynamic microbiome. Effective monitoring requires the detection of every pathogen, while also identifying strains that you may not currently be vaccinating against.

Population-Level Insight

Move beyond sampling individual fish and understand the microbial risk exposed to all livestock.

Every microbe in one sample

Detect microbes associated with skin, gills, mucus and the water

Efficient sampling

Save time and reduce livestock stress with our convenient approach to pathogen detection

A Non-Invasive Approach to Pathogen Detection

Your routine health checks provide an opportunity to analyse the microbes living alongside your fish without any additional need for handling or stress.

By sampling water from the anaesthetic bath before and after fish have been introduced, it's possible to detect the microbes shed by the livestock. This creates a snapshot of the collective microbial community associated with multiple fish, rather than swabbing from individuals.
