Swiss CRO and Testing Lab

Microbiology tests are essential to assess the antimicrobial performance, microbiological quality, and safety of products. It’s essential for validating antimicrobial claims, ensuring regulatory compliance, and maintaining product safety for end users.

Microbiology tests check if products, water, or surfaces are safe and free from harmful germs that can cause infections or spoilage. They also confirm antimicrobial claims, meet regulatory rules, and ensure the product’s safety and quality for users.

Yes, microbiology tests are highly reliable when performed using standardized methods and certified laboratories. We  follow strict quality controls and international guidelines to ensure accurate and consistent results.

You should pick MIS because we use internationally recognized standards (EPA, BPR, ISO, ASTM, WHO) to deliver accurate and reliable microbial test results.
