New technology—and newer uses of older technologies such as PCR—is driving the growth of the clinical diagnostic segment. PCR is scaling down to be simpler to use, even to the development of point-of-care diagnostics. Automation in clinical diagnostics has led to falling costs for clinical microbiology, which in turn has reduced cost pressures—particularly cost-per-test—among health care providers.

Lower crude oil prices have limited the outlook for biofuel. However, government policy demands for renewable fuel have put a floor in the market, and many biofuel producers are pivoting towards petrochemicals traditionally produced as byproducts of the refinery process. Investments towards these technologies will continue to make biofuels a viable market for future investment. Technologies in this field will also continue to benefit the industrial microbiology market as they get spun off from biofuels.

Increased concerns about food safety are pushing the development and adoption of new technologies in food microbiology. Issues with the difficulty of processing food specimens are encouraging developments within the field. From new sample processing techniques and novel molecular technologies to increased use of biosensors, food microbiology is becoming a much more technically sophisticated field.

Environmental monitoring has developed into a major business, with companies consulting for industrial concerns such as industry, public works, utilities and real estate.

"Environmental microbiology has become a part of the skill set of these firms, allowing them to effectively deploy their skills to meet their clients’ needs," says BCC Research analyst Todd Graham. "For example, bioremediation, or using bacteria to remove toxic chemical contamination from soil and water, has become a major environmental microbiology application. With applications in such well-known cases like the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, this technique will be a part of environmentalists’ toolkits for a long time to come."

Track 4 - Microbial Biogeochemistry

Coastal upwelling regimes associated with eastern boundary currents are the most biologically productive ecosystems in the ocean. As a result, they play a disproportionately important role in the microbially mediated cycling of marine nutrients. These systems are characterized by strong natural variations in carbon dioxide concentrations, pH, nutrient levels and sea surface temperatures on both seasonal and interannual timescales. Despite this natural variability, changes resulting from human activities are starting to emerge. Carbon dioxide derived from fossil fuel combustion is adding to the acidity of upwelled low-pH waters. Low-oxygen waters associated with coastal upwelling systems are growing in their extent and intensity as a result of a rise in upper ocean temperatures and productivity.

Track 7 - Biogeochemical cycles

Biogeochemical cycles involve the fluxes of chemical elements among different parts of the Earth: from living to non-living, from atmosphere to land to sea, and from soils to plants. They are called “cycles” because matter is always conserved and because elements move to and from major pools via a variety of two-way fluxes, although some elements are stored in locations or in forms that are differentially accessible to living things. Human activities have mobilized Earth elements and accelerated their cycles – for example, more than doubling the amount of reactive nitrogen that has been added to the biosphere since pre-industrial times., Reactive nitrogen is any nitrogen compound that is biologically, chemically, or radiatively active, like nitrous oxide and ammonia, but not nitrogen gas (N2).

Track 8 - Subsurface Microbiology

Subsurface microbiology is a rising field in geomicrobiology, environmental microbiology and microbial ecology that focuses on the molecular detection and quantification, cultivation, biogeographic examination, and distribution of bacteria, archaea, and eukarya that permeate the subsurface biosphere. The deep biosphere includes a variety of subsurface habitats, such as terrestrial deep aquifer systems or mines, deeply buried hydrocarbon reservoirs, marine sediments and the basaltic ocean crust. The deep subsurface biosphere abounds with uncultured, only recently discovered and at best incompletely understood microbial populations. So far, microbial cells and DNA remain detectable at sediment depths of more than 1 km and life appears limited mostly by heat in the deep subsurface.

Track 10 - Microbes in Water

Water microbiology is concerned with the microorganisms that live in water, or transferred from one habitat to another by water. Another group of microbes of concern in water microbiology are protozoa. The two protozoa of the most concern are Giardia and Cryptosporidium. They live normally in the intestinal tract of animals such as beaver and deer. Giardia and Cryptosporidium form dormant and hardy forms called cysts during their life cycles. The cyst forms are resistant to chlorine, which is the most popular form of drinking water disinfection, and can pass through the filters used in many water treatment plants. If ingested in drinking water they can cause debilitating and prolonged diarrhea in humans, and can be life threatening to those people with impaired immune.

Track 11 – Soil Management

Soil management is a key component to the success of site-specific cropping systems management. It starts with a farmer's capacity to vary tillage and inputs according to soil conditions and needs. This factor is important in seedbed preparation, weed management, sustainability, and has the potential to lower or optimize production costs within an individual field. With a GPS as their guide, farmers using conservation and minimum tillage (the practice of leaving residues on the soil surface) can adjust tillage as they pass through the different soil types while reducing the amount of soil disturbance. Adjustments according to soil conditions such as soil texture, moisture content, and soil pH are important to seed and fertilizer placement.

Track 12 – Pest Control

Pest control is the regulation or management of a species defined as a pest, a member of the animal kingdom that impacts adversely on human activities. The human response depends on the importance of the damage done and will range from tolerance, through deterrence and management, to attempts to completely eradicate the pest. Pest control measures may be performed as part of an integrated pest management strategy.
