Smith-Root, Inc. will be showcasing our eDNA technology at the Western Fish Disease Workshop in Suquamish, WA from June 20th to June 22nd, 2017. Phong Nguyen, a Research Scientist at Smith-Root, will be presenting research work on Renibacterium salmoninarum using Biomeme's mobile qPCR detection. This project using our technology is a joint proof-of-concept study with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and Smith-Root. Learn more about the workshop here and if you're in town, come say hi!

Are you interested in running your own real-time PCR test using the Biomeme platform? Check out our full suite of end-to-end real-time PCR products - from DNA and RNA purification to running a test at the point of sample on a hand-held PCR thermocycler to finally analyzing your real-time PCR test results - here.

"Porting our assay over to the Biomeme platform was surprisingly easy. We tested out their sample prep technology with our samples, tried out their bulk lyophilized master mix with our primers and probes, compared their mobile thermocycler to our lab-bound machine, and after various tests with consistent results, decided to kit our assay into their Go-Strips to aid our field research."
