How Wilderlab’s eDNA testing works
At Wilderlab, we make environmental DNA (eDNA) monitoring simple, reliable, and accessible to everyone — from scientists to school children. Our streamlined process delivers accurate, actionable ecological insights without the need for complex equipment or specialist training.
Get started by ordering one of our easy-to-use eDNA sampling kits online. Each kit contains everything you need for simple, on-site sample collection — no special skills required.
Using the provided kit, collect a sample from your site. Our unique preservation method ensures your sample remains stable without refrigeration or bulky equipment, allowing safe and easy transport.
Ship your sample using standard courier or post services to our laboratory one of our international sample collection points. Our team handles it with care to maintain sample integrity.
At Wilderlab, we use cutting-edge DNA extraction and sequencing technologies, backed by our ISO17025 accreditation and comprehensive reference databases. This enables us to detect and identify thousands of species — from fish and birds to plants and microorganisms — with unmatched accuracy.
Once analysis is complete, you’ll access your detailed results through our secure online portal. Results are presented in an easy-to-understand format with visual summaries and species lists, empowering informed decision-making for biosecurity, conservation, and environmental management.
