Within minutes, 2nd Generation ATP® tests answer the question “Am I in control?” BUT …what if the answer is “No”? Now you can find out why, through the power of DNA. Combining LuminUltra’s 2 Generation ATP monitoring solutions with Microbe Detectives’ advanced DNA analysis and classification service allows you to identify and analyze the entire microbiome. This provides critical answers as to why control was lost AND how to fix and prevent future problems. For drinking water and wastewater utility managers, that means mitigating risk while improving capital and operating efficiencies. nd A Powerful Combination Both tools can be used to audit new processes and identify problem areas that require immediate attention. Once the process is under control, keep it that way through daily testing and monitoring via 2nd Generation ATP test kits and software and periodic sampling for metagenomics profiles to observe changes in microorganism types and distribution. The Microbe Detectives Difference With many DNA measurement and sequencing service providers on the market today, why did LuminUltra chose Microbe Detectives? Because they offer MORE data. They’ll not only tell you ‘who’ is in your sample – they will also provide a report detailing what the presence of those microorganisms means for your application and what you can do about any challenges that are identified. Harness the power of DNA analyses in the following applications: Wastewater Drinking Water The engine of biological wastewater treatment – the microorganisms – can be difficult to manage thus making these processes difficult to troubleshoot. Through Microbe Detectives’ advanced metagenomics platform, nearly all microorganisms are identified, providing ground-breaking insight on optimization opportunities. Culture tests are the standard test method for conducting microbial analyses in water systems. However, you need to know what you are looking for to get valuable information from this style of test, meaning many threats may be missed. One metagenomic analysis will tell you all of the types of microorganisms that are present, and in what relative proportion. Nutrient Removal – DNA methods provide a reliable method to detect and assess all microorganisms associated with nitrification as well as phosphorous removal. Foaming/Filament Control – Identification via a microscope requires a trained technician and results can be somewhat subjective. Take the guess-work completely out of the equation and get a true picture of the situation at hand through DNA quantification, which will definitively identify all foaming and filamentous bacteria. Anaerobic Digester Gas Production – DNA data can be used to assess and track the health of the methanogen population in anaerobic digesters. This information may help operators optimize the process to produce more gas and energy. <1% 3% 12% Firmicutes Proteobacteria Bacteroidetes Actinobacteria Verrucomicrobia 5% Chloroflexi Cyanobacteria 31% Armatimonadetes 49% Other Sample data from wastewater DNA report 520 King Street Fredericton, NB Canada, E3B 6G3 T +1-506-459-8777 www.luminultra.com [email protected] Source water investigations – Metagenomics can for example indicate the presence of surface water microbes in groundwater wells, thus serving as an effective source tracking tool. Pre-treatment assessment – With biological filtration becoming a more commonly-used process for water pretreatment, understanding the make-up of the biological community can be immensely valuable to achieve specific treatment goals (e.g. organics/nutrient removal). Distribution system surveys – Whether it be contamination issues involving infiltration, biofilm proliferation, taste/odor issues, or backflow events, metagenomics can shed light on distribution issues to provide a holistic picture of specifically what types of threats are present. When non-compliance events occur, DNA data can indicate whether or not the coliforms are naturally occurring environmental bacteria or are associated with other fecal bacteria in the sample.
