About Us
Technology
Nature is full of microorganisms that play a crucial role for plants, animals, and humans. A single gram of soil can contain a billion bacteria spread across tens of thousands of species. Some of these bacteria inhibit the growth of other organisms by causing diseases or breaking down nutrients. Then there are the beneficial microorganisms – they produce important nutrients, stimulate growth, or keep harmful pests away. They have high potential, but it has always been a challenge to find them among the many others and make use of them.
We have developed a unique technology that allows us to quickly identify microorganisms adapted to local soil conditions with particularly beneficial properties. This technology, called MicrobeTRAP, is a microbial trap. When placed in the soil with the right nutrients, it captures microorganisms with the desired characteristics.
