As an independent research and consulting business we are agile and responsive, while still providing quality science and outcomes.

Our services

Research

We can design, manage, conduct and report on custom laboratory-, field- or desktop-based microbiological research projects of any size. Although we do not have our own laboratories we have access to an extensive network of facilities as needed. We are also able to assist with writing of research proposals and suggest potential funding sources for the kind of work you may need support for.

While we are experienced in work on the control of foodborne pathogens and biofilms we are able to help with a wide range of microbiological challenges. We are also particularly interested in working with companies looking for underpinning science leading to new markets for plant-based bioactive compounds to continue research work that we have been undertaking for a number of years.

Translation

Our passion is seeing research, that we have conducted or that is reported in the scientific literature, implemented into real world outcomes. We are able to assist in identifying research and converting it to practice that will help our clients achieve their goals. If you have an idea or have read of potential game-changing research for your business let us help translate it into a practical outcome.

Consulting

While our primary focus is on research we also undertake shorter and longer term consulting projects. We are able to assist clients across a range of industries to solve microbiological challenges and address potential regulatory issues, whether these be simple contamination issues or more complex strategies to enhance shelf-life or new market access.
