  • Methods and compositions for identification of source of microbial contamination in a sample
    Patent number: 10961593
    Abstract: Herein are described 1058 different bacterial taxa that were unique to either human, grazing mammal, or bird fecal wastes. These identified taxa can serve as specific identifier taxa for these sources in environmental waters. Two field tests in marine waters demonstrate the capacity of phylogenetic microarray analysis to track multiple sources with one test.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 6, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 30, 2021
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Gary L. Andersen, Eric A. Dubinsky
