Agreement Value:
$50,000.00
Agreement Date:
Feb 10, 2025 - Jan 31, 2026
Description:
The proposed project involves conducting eDNA analysis on samples collected for sterilization method validation for eDNA collection under ice. In addition, the project aims to prepare Prairie Scientific's existing eDNA laboratory for ISO 17025:2017 accreditation. This accreditation process will ensure that the laboratory’s methods and practices meet international standards for quality and reliability of the produced results. The project will include development of a training program for staff, validating methods, developing a quality management system, and preparing for an internal audit. Ultimately, the goal is to improve laboratory performance and gain recognition for the laboratory’s competence in eDNA analysis.
