Supplied by Thermo Fisher Scientific on Thursday, 09 April, 2020


The University of Carolina is currently assessing the impacts of stormwater discharge on the Caroline ecosystem.

The project aims to:

  • Identify key microbial constituents
  • Assess water quality
  • Determine concentrations and likely sources of indicator and tracer microorganisms
  • Provide measures of patterns of indicator and pathogen loading in storm and ambient conditions
  • Examine the advanced strategies used to identify patterns of pollution delivery.
  • Learn about groundbreaking technology that was utilised to achieve near perfect results.
