EnviroDNA

COVID-19 Update

Fortunately we are still able to operate at this stage albeit some changes to keep our people healthy. So if you are interested in using eDNA for a project, please do contact us to discuss to how we can help.

Species detection is at the heart of what we do.

Everything has a fingerprint. With a drop of water or a speck of dust we can trace

native wildlife, pests and introduced species to secure Australia’s biodiversity.
We use cutting edge technology to detect eDNA - traces of DNA left behind

in the environment by any animal, plant or other organism.

Biodiversity in a drop of water or a speck of dust

Joseph Stapleton, Fitzroy Basin Association Project Officer

“The eDNA water sampling procedure is quick and simple making it easy for FBA to care for their 156,700 square kilometre catchment area. The training provided by EnviroDNA staff was professional, comprehensive and was followed by continued support.”

Phil Taylor, GHD Senior Aquatic Ecologist

"Helen and Josh are very easy to work with. Establishing our first eDNA monitoring project was made simple through their willingness to have open discussions about sampling design and the logistics of sample handling. Their understanding of client service is exceptional and Frances has been very responsive and very helpful. If you require eDNA services, I have no hesitation in recommending EnviroDNA."

Marie Bigot, Hydrobiology Senior Ecotoxicologist | Environmental Risk Assessment

"It is always a delight working with EnviroDNA! The team worked hard on adapting methods to suit our requirements and brainstorming ideas to address the challenges of our projects. Great turnaround on samples and great communication!"

Craig Chargulaf, Brisbane City Council Aquatic Ecologist, Water Management

"We utilised EnviroDNA to survey for platypus and saw-shelled turtles in our local waterways using eDNA techniques. The team at EnviroDNA was knowledgeable and helped us from the start of project to delivery of final results. They communicated with us throughout the process to keep us informed on status of results, as well as to check in to ensure we had everything we needed for sampling. The saw-shelled turtle was a new species for EnviroDNA, which provided some challenges, but the team worked through it and delivered results that met our needs. We will be using EnviroDNA's services again as the technique provides cost savings over traditional monitoring methods."
