BIOLOGICAL AND ECOTOXICOLOGICAL ANALYSES


        Our laboratories have a large experience in biological, ecotoxicological and molecar biology analyses.


      Microbio
logy :  petri

-         Bacterias (Coliforms, Listeria, Salmonellas, staphylococus, Mycotoxins…)  

-         Yeasts

-         Germs                                                 

-         Moulds,

-         Virus

-         Legionellas

-         Helminth eggs

-         Microorganisms…


      
Ecotoxicology : 

-         Acute toxicity tests (daphnies, mobility test, bacteries, luminescence test (Microtox TM), fish, survival test (static and demi-static), fish, prolongated survival test (half static), copepodes and dulcaquicole rotifers (toxkits), copepodes and marine rotifers (toxkits)

-         Chronic toxicity tests: ceriodaphnies- reproduction tests, daphnies- reproduction test, algues, growth test (flacons or microplaques), duckweeds- growth test, brachionus- reproduction test.

 

Mutagenicity:

-Mutatox TM

-SOS Chromotest

-Ames test 

Goal : To assess the environmental impact of chemical compounds and of their 
blend, of the new bioproducts and bioprocedures.

- IGBN, IBGA determinations

     Biodegradability

     Molecular Biology :   

      -         Paternity tests

-        Track researches for criminal investigation

-         Bovine and ovine genotypage

-         GMO research and quantification :
