Capabilities
One partner, from biological insight to applied solution.
Our team combines microbial ecology, molecular biology, engineering, and field-minded study design to move complex projects forward.
02
Environmental forensics
Sequencing, qPCR, and bioinformatics that reveal who is present, what they are doing, and why it matters.
03
Bioremediation
Biological solutions that support the cleanup of contaminated soil and water.
04
Microbial control
Targeted microbial and bacteriophage approaches for environmental and agricultural applications.
05
Treatability studies
Controlled studies that de-risk field decisions and identify the most effective treatment path.
06
Strain + bioprocess development
From novel microbial isolation and characterization through production optimization and scale-up.
Applied researchDesigned for the conditions that matter.
Our approach
Rigorous enough for the lab. Practical enough for the field.
We build each engagement around the decisions you need to make—not around a preset package of tests.
- 01
Characterize the system
Define the microbial, chemical, and environmental conditions shaping performance.
- 02
Design a focused intervention
Translate data into a clear strategy, from monitoring plans to tailored biological solutions.
- 03
Validate what works
Use fit-for-purpose studies to generate defensible results and reduce implementation risk.
Selected experience
Science that holds up outside the lab.
Our work spans federal programs, environmental consulting, academic research, and commercial innovation.
Bioremediation in practice
1,4-dioxane treatability studies, technology development, and field trials for government and commercial partners.
Alternatives to antibiotics
NSF- and USDA-supported bacteriophage research for targeted microbial control in agriculture.
Actionable community data
Microbial community analysis, genome sequencing, and interpretation for academic and industrial teams.
