All Capabilities

Surveillance & Biosecurity

Sovereign biosurveillance capability — from farm gate to hospital ward.

Independent UK-based pathogen and AMR surveillance, building on BioSeer's pioneering wastewater epidemiology work. Targeted detection and genomic characterisation across air, water, soil and clinical samples — supporting NHS infection-prevention teams, the Ministry of Defence, Home Office, UKHSA, civil resilience partners, and One Health programmes.

Microscope used in pathogen surveillance

What we offer

Wastewater-Based Epidemiology

Population-level pathogen surveillance using wastewater as a non-invasive sentinel. Detection of respiratory, gastrointestinal and emerging pathogens with 48–72 hour lead time over clinical case reporting.

Air-Based Epidemiology

Passive and active air sampling for pathogen surveillance in healthcare, food production and high-footfall environments.

Environmental and Site Surveillance

Systematic environmental sampling programmes for facility-level outbreak investigation, decontamination verification and ongoing biosurveillance.

Biological Security, Biodefence and Biosurveillance

Detection and genomic characterisation of high-consequence pathogens with confidential reporting protocols. Surge testing capacity for national-level incidents.

Farm Pathogen and AMR Surveillance

Integrated on-farm biosurveillance covering zoonotic pathogens, antimicrobial resistance and environmental contamination pathways.

Water Quality Microbiology and AMR Surveillance

AMR gene profiling and pathogen surveillance in drinking water, wastewater and recreational water.
