As part of the development of a simple, rapid molecular test for the detection of certain pathogenic micro-organisms in milk, we needed to work with a company with expertise in microbiology. We were looking for a qualified and experienced laboratory to prepare calibrated microbial suspensions and purified genetic material from different bacterial species. By identifying Smaltis, we were able to fully achieve our objectives thanks to the expertise of their team. We now regularly rely on this trusted partner for our recurring needs.

As part of the development of rapid in vitro diagnostic (IVD) tools for detecting infectious pathologies in humans, we needed to evaluate the performance of new tests dedicated to the detection of bacterial antibiotic resistance mechanisms. We approached Smaltis, a company specializing in microbiology and molecular biology, and found them ideally suited to our needs. Smaltis made its expertise available to assess the efficacy and robustness of our tests on clinical strains with very specific antibiotic resistance profiles, compared with a molecular biology method. The results confirmed the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of our test, and enabled us to meet regulatory requirements. For us, the Smaltis laboratory is an expert player on whom we can rely to support our developments and obtain the data we need to bring our tools to market.

As part of our programs to harness microbiota to improve human health, we called on Smaltis to demonstrate the antimicrobial activity of our pharmaceutical product to combat vaginosis. Smaltis demonstrated great expertise and efficiency in setting up relevant protocols adapted to our objective, while coping with the complexities inherent in handling particular strains in equally complex environments. The energy deployed by the Smaltis team and their ability to adapt have confirmed our choice of this expert, on whom we can rely for our other projects.

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.

Specialized in the production of cell banks from blood, for research and patient use, we needed to rely on a microbiology company to ensure the absence of contamination in our products from the start of our preparations. Established at the time in the premises of the EFS, it was only natural that we turned to Smaltis, located a few steps from our laboratories. Their work approach and the reliability of their results were exactly what we were looking for, and for several years now, we have entrusted them with all our microbiological analyses. The growth of our respective companies led us to look for new premises... and it is with pleasure that we took over the premises of Smaltis, who then moved into the building just across the street! It is important to have Smaltis in our network of reliable partners with common values, to contribute to the improvement of health!
