Microbiology

Synbiotec offers general microbiology services for isolation and characterization of probiotic bacterial strains and identification of metabolic and functional characteristics. For example:

  • Isolation of probiotic strains for human and animal use
  • In vitro evaluation of probiotic properties
  • Evaluation of probiotic stability under different storage conditions
  • Identification and quantification of Short Chain Fatty Acids (SCFA)
  • Freeze-drying processes

Customized servicesare available upon request. For more information orquotes, please contact us at customerservice.synbiotec@saccosystem.com

Cell cultures

Synbiotec, in collaboration with the University of Camerino, has several cell lines available to study the efficacy of probiotics through:

  • In vitro models for the study of antimicrobial activity
  • Models to assess in vitro adhesion ability to cell lines (e.g., HT29, HeLa and Caco2)
  • In vitro detection of immune system modulation

Customized servicesare available upon request. For more information orquotes, please contact us at customerservice.synbiotec@saccosystem.com

Pilot batch production

Synbiotec offers dietary supplement development and manufacturing services on behalf of third parties in the form of single-dose oral capsules containing probiotic and/or symbiotic formulations.

The packaging final is represented by box containing:

  • blister withholders of 2 to 15 capsules
  • PE or glass jars containing 2 to 60 capsules

Our production line is highly flexible and multifunctional in order to be able to meet, in terms of quality and quantity, the customer's requirements. Each finished product is released previo careful quality control from microbiological, physical-chemical and visual-olfactory points of view.

There are available customized services based on specific requests. For more information or quotes, please contact us at customerservice.synbiotec@saccosystem.com

NGS sequencing

Synbiotec offers comprehensive services for NGS sequencing from sample isolation to sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Some examples:

Whole genome sequencing

Characterization of the entire bacterial DNA sequence for the detection of SNPs, insertions, deletions, and rearrangements on a large scale.

Metagenomics

Characterization of microbial communities in their natural environment by sequencing the complete genome or specific regions (16S RNA).

Targeted re-sequencing

Target region re-sequencing enables rapid analysis of specific genomic regions of interest for the detection of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), structural variants, copy number variations etc. It relies on the use of specific primers or probes that go to amplify the region of interest.
