eDNA
Our dedicated laboratory in Oban, Scotland, offers a wide range of options for eDNA analysis, from marine mammals to bacteria and accommodates numerous sample types.
Why work with Ocean Ecology
The benefits of eDNA analysis
As we strive to provide innovative solutions, eDNA provides an agile, non-intrusive, forensic approach to environmental monitoring. As a standalone analysis it can provide insights into biodiversity, detect rare or elusive species often overlooked by other sampling methods, and monitor migration patterns. It can also be coupled with outputs from one of our other services, such as macrobenthic analysis, to provide environmentally robust datasets.
Scottish-based services for quality and efficiency
Our bespoke eDNA laboratory, in Oban on Scotland’s west coast, lies at the heart of the UK aquaculture sector. This strategic location enables us to provide a highly accessible and efficient service for aquaculture and other marine.
Sectors using our eDNA analysis service
Our eDNA analysis services primarily support the aquaculture and offshore wind sectors, delivering high-quality data for diverse project needs.
