Our Comprehensive Service Offerings: A Deep Dive
Our integrated service portfolio covers every critical stage of probiotic development, from initial exploration to advanced functional validation. Each service is meticulously designed to provide you with the detailed information required to advance your research. Dive deeper into our specialized offerings by clicking on the links below. Each page provides an in-depth explanation of the service, methodologies employed, and the benefits of your research.
Our experts utilize diverse isolation techniques and high-throughput screening assays to identify novel microbial strains with specific desired characteristics from various biological and environmental sources.
Employing cutting-edge genomics (16S rRNA gene sequencing, whole-genome sequencing) and phenotypic analyses, we accurately identify and taxonomically classify your probiotic candidates down to the strain level.
We comprehensively assess the metabolic capabilities of your probiotic strains, analyzing their ability to ferment various carbohydrates, which is crucial for understanding their ecological niche and potential impact on host metabolism.
Our bioinformatics specialists design highly specific primers and probes for quantitative PCR (qPCR) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assays, enabling precise detection and quantification of your target probiotic strains in complex samples.
We evaluate the survival and stability of probiotic strains under various physiological and environmental stresses (e.g., acid, bile, temperature, oxygen), critical for successful formulation and in vivo performance.
Through a combination of in vitro cell culture models, immunological assays, and metabolomic profiling, we elucidate the beneficial functions and molecular mechanisms of action of your probiotic candidates.
We conduct advanced in vitro and ex vivo studies to assess how probiotic strains interact with host cells and tissues, including adhesion, immunomodulation, and barrier function enhancement.

The Importance of Rigorous Discovery & Characterization in Drug Development
The success of any probiotic product hinges on a thorough and systematic approach to its discovery and characterization. This is not merely an academic exercise; it is a critical, value-adding process that underpins the efficacy, safety, and regulatory approval of your therapeutic candidate. Without comprehensive characterization, it is impossible to understand the mechanisms of action, predict potential interactions, or ensure consistent product quality.
Our services play a vital role at various stages of the drug development process:
-
Early Discovery & Lead Identification: We help identify novel microbial strains with desired probiotic properties from diverse sources, laying the foundation for a robust pipeline.
-
Pre-clinical Development: Through detailed characterization, we provide the essential data needed to support IND (Investigational New Drug) applications, including safety profiling, understanding of mechanisms of action, and preliminary efficacy data.
-
Formulation & Manufacturing: Our characterization services inform optimal strain selection and formulation strategies, ensuring viability, stability, and consistent potency of the final product.
-
Intellectual Property Protection: Comprehensive characterization strengthens your patent claims, demonstrating the novelty and utility of your probiotic strains.
-
Regulatory Compliance: We generate high-quality data required by regulatory agencies for product approval, demonstrating safety, purity, and efficacy.
Investing in thorough discovery and characterization upfront significantly de-risks your development program, saving valuable time and resources in the long run.
