USE MICROBES TO REMEDIATE ENVIRONMENT
Who We Are?
MicroRem is a precision microbiome technology company dedicated to developing microbe-based biotechnologies for biofertilizer and bioremediation. The company was founded and registered in Alachua Florid in March 2017. MicroReme is located in Sid Martin Biotech Institute University of Florida and the lab is equipped with a complete set of instruments (gassing station, gas tanks, anaerobic tubes, and anaerobic glove boxes) for anaerobic microbiology.
What Technology We Develop?
MicroReme technology focuses on how to use microbes to remediate environmental contamination and restore soil quality. We strongly believe that our research efforts will contribute to a better understanding of how bacteria are beneficial for soil restoration and environmental cleanup. Our ongoing technology development works include:
Bioremediation
in situ soil bioremediation for heavy metals contamination sulfate reducing bacteria
Crude oil biodegradation
Plasticizer biodegradation to restore vegetable planting soil in facilities
Biofertilizer
Animal waste residual fat/proteins conversion into organic fertilizer using fat degrading bacteria
Next generation bio-phosphorus fertilizer using phosphorus solubilizing bacteria
Biological fermented waste conversion into liquid biofertilizer
The above projects are all tailored for specific needs based on the demands from industrial partners. MicroReme focuses on "naturally occurring-but uncultivated" bacteria from natural samples and supplies them into biofertilzers for organic farming business or bioremediation purposes.
What Services We Provide?
Unlike most microbiome companies providing microbiome sequencing analysis services, MicroReme provides microbial pure culture-based R&D services for multidisciplinary research areas such as
Environmental Microbiology
Microbial Ecology
Bioremediation
Waste Treatment
Soil Biogeochemistry
Human/Animal/Plant microbiome studies
Especially, MicroReme provides customized anaerobic microbiology research services. Our services are totally based upon the requests from our research clients. We usually perform bacterial isolation/cultivation/assay projects once we receive the environmental samples from our clients. All anaerobic bacterial isolations and assays are carried out under strictly anaerobic conditions. MicroReme services include:
Target specific anaerobic bacterial isolation: from sample to pure culture in single tubes
Denitrifying bacteria
Fermentative bacteria
Sulfate reducing bacteria
Iron reducing bacteria
High throughput bacterial cell banking: from sample to pure culture in 96 well format high throughput tubes
