DIACLONE SAS part of Medixbiochemica

Smaltis is a long-term partner with whom we have established a privileged relationship. We work in highly complementary domains and collaborate regularly to provide a comprehensive offering to our clients, utilizing microbiology and molecular biology services that we specifically require. We engage them for services such as sample contamination analysis, production of competent bacteria, and preparation of suspensions of inactivated strains for the development of new monoclonal antibodies. A true bond of trust has developed, facilitated by the geographical proximity of our respective locations and easy communication with their teams, whose flexibility, tenacity in problem-solving, and quality of work are crucial for us.

Caroline GEBUS
Bioprocess Scientist
OM Pharma

We use Escherichia coli strains to manufacture our Uro-Vaxom® product for the prevention of recurrent lower urinary tract infections and co-treatment of acute urinary tract infections and, in accordance with regulatory requirements, we must demonstrate the stability of our strains. We therefore asked SMALTIS to develop a tailor-made quality control method. In addition to their ability to listen to customer needs and propose new ideas, the SMALTIS team has also distinguished itself by the quality and accuracy of its analysis reports. At present, the partnership established with SMALTIS is a real asset for OM Pharma.

Agustina LLANOS
Head of Biology
ANTABIO

We have collaborated with Smaltis on several occasions since 2014, notably as part of our ANT3273 project. This is an inhaled medicine targeting a key virulence factor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa involved in pathogenesis and would be an alternative or complement to existing antibiotic therapy for the treatment of P. aeruginosa infections in chronic respiratory diseases, such as bronchiectasis. Recently, Smaltis successfully completed a MLST sequencing project of a large number of strains with a very tight timeline to study the clonality of clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa from cystic fibrosis patients. The Smaltis team stands out for its expertise, proactive approach, and its communication and adaptability, which is why we continue to trust them.

Delphine GALLAND
Head of Preclinical Clinical Studies
VETOQUINOL

For the past 10 years, we have regularly turned to Smaltis for their services and expertise in microbiology, cellular biology, and molecular biology. The entrusted work focused on evaluating the efficacy and safety of various products related to infectious diseases. The smoothness of our interactions, the responsiveness of the entire team, and their adaptation to our regulatory requirements have allowed us to advance our research projects optimally. The trust we have placed in Smaltis over these 10 years has led us to include this provider among our preferred contacts.

The man who wanted to extend lifespan

Once upon a time, more than a century ago, Elie Metchnikoff hypothesized that health could be improved, and senility delayed by modulating the intestinal microbes thanks to bacteria present in yogurt. This zoologist and microbiologist was thus one of the first scientists to take an interest in gut microbiota and what we now call probiotics, the consumption of which he claimed helped to fight against aging.

This is the story of “the man who wanted to extend lifespan”.
