We support research and development in a wide range of fields, from elemental experiments in the industrial and environmental fields to bench-scale testing and bioscience. We accurately grasp the client's objectives and needs, and provide total support by utilizing the technology and know-how we have cultivated over many years.
By combining our know-how in experimental techniques with the environmental analysis and measurement technologies we have cultivated over many years, we offer comprehensive support for experimental planning, equipment design and manufacturing, testing and research, performance evaluation, and other tasks with the aim of developing new technologies and resolving problems in the industrial field.
We provide consistent support for the following research and experiment tasks, from planning to evaluation.
We analyze microorganisms that are deeply involved in industry and the environment, and investigate the relationship between environmental conditions and microorganisms. We can inspect, test, and analyze a variety of microorganisms and environments, such as those listed below.
We will conduct microbial community structure analysis using a next-generation sequencer (Illumina MiSeq system), as well as statistical analysis such as diversity analysis and ecological surveys of characteristic microorganisms.
We perform comprehensive quantification of Eubacteria and Archaea, as well as quantification of specific bacteria such as nitrifying bacteria and methanogens. We also support the creation of quantification methods for desired microorganisms.
The abundance and spatial distribution of specific bacteria, such as microorganisms attached to carriers, can be visualized by fluorescence microscopy.
We also support microbial community structure analysis using cloning methods, which allows for more accurate phylogenetic classification of dominant species than next-generation sequencing analysis.
We perform rapid identification of microorganisms using genetic analysis in accordance with the Japanese Pharmacopoeia, including identification of isolated bacteria (16S rRNA) and fungi (ITS).
We can also provide testing for the following microorganisms:
Tests will be carried out according to various test methods.
By analyzing DNA from organisms released into the environment (environmental DNA) using next-generation sequencers, we can understand the organisms present in that environment without having to capture and investigate individual organisms.
We conduct analysis in accordance with the standard "Environmental DNA Survey and Experiment Manual" created by the Environmental DNA Technology Standardization Committee of the Environmental DNA Society, and specialized technicians who are skilled in genetic analysis and biological surveys will examine the detected data and report the analysis results.
We use the latest equipment to study and develop analytical methods for new chemical substances that are not stipulated in JIS or official methods. We also engage in joint research with universities and research institutes, and present the results of our developments at academic conferences and other events. Please see below for examples of analytical technology development.
Screening of unknown substances in CO₂ absorption solution
Screening for trace chemicals in water by AIQS-GC
Simultaneous analysis of multi-component PFAS in water, sediment, food, etc.
Analysis of amines and nitrosamines for CCS
