Algae Genetic Screening Services

Genetic screening, also known as mutagenesis screening, is a common laboratory procedure used to create and detect mutant organisms.

As a professional CRO company, Lifeasible provides professional genetic screening services to promote the understanding of algal genes and the development of new algal strains.

Relationship Between Genotype and Phenotype

Genotype is a general term for all the genetic combinations of an individual organism, which reflects the genetic composition of the organism and the sum of all genes.

Phenotype is a trait characteristic exhibited by an individual organism with a specific genotype under certain environmental conditions, which is determined by both genes and the environment.

As an effective way to identify the function of genes, genetic screening is widely used in multiple organisms. Mutations are introduced to the specific site or random site and then the differences in physical properties or phenotypes are analyzed. Two different methods are included in genetic screening, which is forward genetic screening and reverse genetic screening.

Our Services

Algae is a powerful organism with a variety of application scenarios, such as nutrient production, biofuel generation, and wastewater treatment. To identify the gene function and the algae strain with a specific phenotype, both forward and reverse genetic screening services can be performed.

With a professional and experienced algae research team, Lifeasible is capable to provide algae genetic screening services.

Forward Genetic Screening Service for Algae

Randomly mutated algal strains are generated by mutagen treatment of algae, and the control genes and algal strains of specific phenotypes are analyzed by analyzing the growth of different genotypes of algae in different environments and the production of target products.

Reverse Genetic Screening Service for Algae

Through the algae screening platform, which includes primary screening, secondary screening, and data analysis, Lifeasible can provide quality forward genetic screening services for algae in order to find the most suitable commercial algae strain and identify the gene function.

To study the function of specific genes, RNAi and CRISPR techniques are often used to introduce mutations at specific gene loci, form mutation libraries, and perform phenotypic analysis to determine the function of specific genes and screen for algal strains with specific phenotypes.

Using reliable and effective automated passaging instruments, genome-wide coverage of algal mutant databases, and phenotyping platforms that can analyze a wide range of environmental parameters for algal growth, Lifeasible is able to provide quality reverse genetic screening services for algae and develop potential applications for algae.
