What is EFSA?

EFSA stands for the European Food Safety Authority. It is essentially the scientific supervisor of the European Union when it comes to food.
EFSA’s purpose is to ensure that the food Europeans eat is safe and meets high quality standards.
To do so, they provide objective and unbiased scientific assessment of food-related risks.

How to preserve the skin microbiota?

The skin microbiota plays a vital role in maintaining the skin's integrity and functionality. It contributes to the proper regulation of organisms and organs, allowing the skin to perform its essential functions, including acting as a barrier. See our latest article "Why preservce the skin microbiota ?"

Why preserve the skin microbiota?

The skin serves as the first line of interaction with the external environment and as a defence mechanism against the physical, chemical, or biological stresses and challenges it encounters. The skin microbiota plays a key role in these interactions and defence functions. Formerly known as "skin flora", it colonises every square centimetre of the skin. Its role is fundamental to both skin health and the overall well-being of the body. What are the factors that influence its composition, and what disrupts its functions?

Skin microbiome's influence on skin health

The cutaneous microbiota has become a subject of interest for the nutri-cosmetics, dermo-cosmetics and beauty industries. New products have been launched that claim to respect the skin's microbiota, as well as skincare products containing a new category of active ingredients - pre-, pro- and post-biotics - designed to protect, rebalance or maintain its equilibrium. These innovations have been made possible by significant scientific and technological advances in the study of microbiota.

European Commission Proposal for a Directive on Soil Monitoring and Resilience

The European objective for 2050 is to achieve a healthy and more resilient soil. To support this objective, on Friday 7th of July, the European Commission published a Proposal for a Directive on Soil Monitoring and Resilience (Soil Monitoring Law) [1].

GenoScreen is a partner in collaborative research projects that bring together startups, multinationals and public-sector organizations. Our R&D teams provide their knowledge and expertise in the molecular microbiology of isolated agents and complex communities. This allowed our teams to develop our own projects for elaborating innovative products and services.

Our projects are designed to:

  • Improve the diagnosis and management of acute/chronic diseases on humans and animals,
  • Characterize and monitor microbial biodiversity, with applications in agronomy, agrifood and environment.

The common feature of these projects is the development of molecular tools for the characterization, monitoring and diagnosis of microbial communities. The key objective is to market simple analytical solutions and (ultimately) preventive, corrective or even therapeutic products based on microorganisms.
