Microbial Identification Services in India
16S rRNA, 18S rRNA, ITS & Shotgun Metagenomics. Fast, affordable, and publication-ready microbial identification for researchers, industries & institutions across India.
Why Microbial Identification Matters in 2026
Microbes drive 90% of Earth's biochemical processes. Accurate identification is essential for clinical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, food safety, probiotics validation, agriculture, and bioremediation. Traditional culturing misses >99% of microbes. Modern DNA-based methods (16S/18S/ITS amplicon & shotgun metagenomics) reveal the full unculturable microbial world.
At Yaazh Xenomics, we deliver end-to-end microbial identification services using gold-standard Sanger sequencing (ABI 3500/3730xl) & high-throughput NGS (Illumina / Oxford Nanopore) with advanced bioinformatics.

Our Microbial Identification Technologies
| Method | Target Organisms | Technology | Key Advantages | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16S rRNA Sequencing | Bacteria & Archaea (e.g. Actinomycetes) | Sanger (full-length) or NGS (V3-V4) | Gold standard for bacterial ID, Phylogenetic trees | Pure cultures, environmental samples, probiotics |
| 18S rRNA Sequencing | Fungi, Protists, Algae, Micro-eukaryotes | Sanger (full-length) or NGS (V4-V5) | High accuracy for eukaryotic diversity | Soil, water, marine, gut eukaryotic communities |
| ITS Sequencing | Fungi (yeasts, molds) | Sanger or NGS (ITS1/ITS2) | Highest fungal resolution (species level data) | Fermented foods, clinical fungi, soil mycobiome |
| Shotgun Metagenomics | All microbes + viruses + functional genes | NGS (Illumina/MGI) / Oxford Nanopore long-reads | Strain-level ID, functional pathways (KEGG, COG) | Gut microbiome, AMR studies, novel gene discovery |
Our Complete Workflow (End-to-End)
Sample Collection & DNA Extraction
