At Opal Forensics, we specialise in molecular testing that goes beyond simple identification — providing quantitative, court-defensible results that stand up to scrutiny. From our lab at Nottingham Science & Technology Park, we apply rapid shotgun metagenomic sequencing to detect and quantify fungal and mould DNA in buildings, materials and environmental samples, thus providing comprehensive, defensible data for legal and remediation contexts.

We work to ISO 17025 standard with strict chain-of-custody, documented controls, and bioinformatic verification for every report. The result: data you can rely on — clearly explained, context-driven, and ready for compliance or remediation use.
