LuminUltra--a rapid and portable microbiological monitoring tool firm--has acquired InstantLabs, a developer of DNA-based measurement technologies.
“LuminUltra is now a one-stop shop for microbiology management in a variety of sectors, including drinking water, wastewater, industrial, and oil and gas. We can provide a comprehensive picture of how many microorganisms are in our customers’ processes and which ones are having the most impact, and we can do this within minutes to hours,” says Pat Whalen, president and CEO of LuminUltra. “By adding InstantLabs’ DNA-based measurement tools, we can offer a more complete picture while maintaining our hallmark rapid feedback. That means both faster and better decision-making for our customers.”
