We interact and work globally with companies and research centers that require specialized knowledge of microorganisms from extreme environments and their bioactive compounds. In this highly specialized domain, Swissaustral Biotech focuses on the isolation of extremophiles from their natural sources as much as the discovery and purification of their original bioactive compounds, particularly novel enzymes and metabolites of biotechnological potential. Our expertise in culturing, DNA extraction, enzyme and metabolites purification from extremophilic microorganisms is geared towards specific solutions of non-standard and challenging biotechnological problems, including particular chemical and biochemical reactions. Swissaustral Biotech provides, globally, specialized R&D Services to partners and customers that need access to the original, newly found extremophilic microorganisms and their natural bioactive compounds, in order to maintain their competitive edge or enter into new markets.
