qPCR Target Information

Dehalococcides (DHC) is a strictly anaerobic genus playing a key role in dehalogenation of chlorinated ethenes (PCE, TCE, cDCE, tDCE & VC). Dehalococcoides mccartyi are crucial to complete for the degradation of cDCE and VC to benign ethene. Dehalococcoides mccartyi are therefore key to the performance of Micronovo's AusPCE organo-halide respiring culture mix.
