MIX Research Sweden is a research and consulting company with a focus on eDNA technology for biodiversity monitoring. We strive to always generate reliable
high quality data and results. Therefore, it is important for us to be at the forefront of eDNA research and we collaborate with the majority of leading actors to drive development forward. Our dedication to applying and driving the development of new technology makes us a reliable partner for companies, organizations and authorities that take sustainability and the environment seriously.
MIX Research Sweden has quickly established itself as a player in the use of eDNA technology, which utilizes genetic information found in the surrounding environment to monitor and analyze biological diversity in an efficient manner. By collecting samples from water, snow, air or soil, we can map and identify different species and their genetic fingerprints, enabling accurate and cost-effective monitoring of ecosystems over time.
We are a team of experts who are passionate about our work and share a common passion to explore and advance the potential of eDNA technology.
